Boston, Massachusetts - FxFactory today released a new Final Cut Pro X set of plugins called XEffects Smooth Glass Slideshow.

The set of plugins can be used in a wide variety of projects, from broadcast show openers, corporate and social media projects, all the way to wedding and home video edits.

Idustrial Revolution's designers and editors have been at the forefront of using Apple technology and software in creating content for broadcasters, corporate users and videographers. They have been successfully producing products for Final Cut Pro for over 10 years.

"The most searched for item on our website is a slideshow," said Peter Wiggins, plugin developer at Idustrial Revolution, "So it made sense to add to our growing collection of FCPX templates with a great looking slideshow that can be easily built directly on the timeline. We published the world's first ever commercial product for Apple's Motion back in 2004. It was a template with a single glass bar that travelled over the frame, I think it is fair to say we have come a long way since then!"

New EP Record 'Bad Guys' on iTunes With Bitcoin Booty Stashed Inside

New EP Record 'Bad Guys' on iTunes With Bitcoin Booty Stashed Inside - Published on 03/27/18

Camerado Music, a newly established venture of Camerado Movies and Media, ventures into music production with the record release of the EP, 'Bad Guys' by indie rock / psych folk and electronic artist Gone Marshall. With $1000 producer fee remaining after production of the EP, the producers decided to place the remaining funds in a Bitcoin wallet to allow listeners a chance at cracking the secret code hidden among the tracks of the record.

Los Angeles, CA - Camerado Music, a newly established venture of Camerado Movies and Media, ventures into music production with the record release of the EP, 'Bad Guys' by indie rock / psych folk and electronic artist Gone Marshall. With $1000 producer fee remaining after production of the EP, the producers decided to place the remaining funds in a Bitcoin wallet to allow listeners a chance at cracking the secret code hidden among the tracks of the record.

"The usual thing to do after successfully completing a project like this is is pocket any remaining production money as part of the producer's fee", said Camerado principal and 'Bad Guys' producer Jason Rosette. "But in this case, given the unique sonic and lyrical landscapes of the record ('Bad Guys'), it seemed more engaging for listeners to have a shot at the money by placing it in a private Bitcoin wallet and leaving the code to crack the wallet hidden throughout the EP."

The private wallet security code would normally be virtually unbreakable, with a one in 2.5 quadrillion chance of randomly guessing the key. However, with the information embedded throughout the record, a listener with a good pair of headphones stands a chance of achieving the booty.

(The private encryption hex containing the Bitcoin, minus the ten missing variables which can be found on 'Bad Guys' is as follows: L4g9_jVfr_cdN1_ttNC_Eerx_W14p_Mny7_zudY_aew2_8hna_mq )

With striking lyrics and a vocal sensibility reminiscent of Lou Reed, Johnny Cash, Ian Curtis (Joy Division), and Leonard Cohen, 'Bad Guys' by Gone Marshall brings a new and sparkling blend of psych folk, indie pop, electronic, and alt rock to an over-processed scene. Reviewer Johnny Novocain says of Gone Marshall, "A trippy Leonard Cohen. Beatific and funny. Bad Guys is the anthem this country sorely needs to sing along with".

Curious listeners (and treasure seekers!) can find Gone Marshall's new EP 'Bad Guys' on iTunes, Bandcamp, Google Play Music, Spotify, and other platforms.

Contact Camerado Music to solve the code or to send comments about 'Bad Guys'.

KeyCue 8.7 - the last maintenance release before KeyCue 9

A new article has been published at prMac.

KeyCue 8.7 - the last maintenance release before KeyCue 9 - Published on 03/27/18

Ergonis Software today releases KeyCue 8.7, a new version of the company's highly acclaimed keyboard shortcut cheat sheet. KeyCue displays an instant overview of the currently available keyboard shortcuts; application-specific menu shortcuts as well as system-wide hotkeys and user-defined shortcut descriptions. KeyCue 8.7 is scheduled to be the last maintenance release for KeyCue 8, while Ergonis is already preparing to release the major version KeyCue 9 later this year.

Perg, Austria - Ergonis Software today released KeyCue 8.7, a new version of the company's highly acclaimed keyboard shortcut learning tool. KeyCue 8.7 is scheduled to be the last maintenance release for KeyCue 8, while Ergonis is already preparing to release the major version KeyCue 9 later this year.

KeyCue 8.7 can now display macro shortcuts of yKey (former "iKey"). It offers faster animation of the menu scanning process and additional information during the installation process. Besides that, the new version fixes a cosmetic issue on High Sierra and contains compatibility improvements with PhotoLab and Photos. Visit Ergonis Software's website to learn more about the changes in this release and to download and try the new version.

Moreover, Ergonis Software is already preparing for the next major version, KeyCue 9, which is scheduled for release later this year. It will come with great new features that open the door to more efficient usage, more power and more fun. But there's no reason to wait for KeyCue 9. All KeyCue purchases (new and upgrades alike) made now already include the major upgrade to KeyCue 9.0 and all subsequent 9.x upgrades.

The productivity paradox of keyboard shortcuts is that shortcuts were designed to increase productivity. However, productivity actually decreases when applications provide large numbers of shortcuts, in particular when the shortcuts are defined inconsistently across applications. KeyCue's elegantly simple solution is to display an instant overview of currently available keyboard shortcuts, application-specific menu shortcuts as well as system-wide hotkeys, and user-defined shortcut descriptions. Over time, KeyCue users will automatically remember frequently used shortcuts and start working more efficiently.

KeyCue has already received many awards, including a 4.5-Mice award from MacWorld magazine.

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6 or newer
* Compatible with macOS High Sierra (10.13)

Availability and Ordering:
The upgrade to KeyCue 8.7 is free for anyone who owns a license for KeyCue 8 or purchased a license for KeyCue 7 on or after March 1st 2015. Upgrade paths are available for owners of older licenses. All KeyCue purchases (new and upgrades alike) made now already include the major upgrade to KeyCue 9.0 and all subsequent 9.x upgrades. For information about purchases, including enterprise licenses, volume discounts, and upgrade pricing offers, see the company's web site.
