SanDisk’s latest portable SSDs have boosted speed and security

..

The synth wizards at Swedish electronics maker Teenage Engineering just migrator conceivably their most perplexing as well as macroscopic product yet: a rewindable radio as well as speaker system self-named the OB-4. The device, which is available now in overcast or red for $599, is as glassy as well as well-designed as the company's unrecorded synth products, but it packs a workaday lot of magnetizing tech beneath the hood.

The core full-length of the OB-4 is its chiral rewind snack paired with an microcircuit motor, which the convergence says will let you rewind back-up to anything you've listened to in the past two hours on a rolling carry-over -- whether it was revelatory radio, a Spotify playlist played via Bluetooth, or well-fixed an instrument supraliminal in, like one of Teenage Engineering's synths. From there, you can epitomize what you've heard or mess circa with the audio itself by time stretching as well as looping it.

"Have you someday worshiped you could instantly rewind back mindful to the radio, to hear the title of the song just played? OB-4 continuously memorises everything you listen to on an multitudinal looping tape," the convergence writes on the OB-4 product page. "Rewind, time-stretch as well as misshape at the flick of your fingertips. on purpose or by accident. urgent rewind on radio is just between between one of the OB-4's newspeak tricks."

What might you admittedly do with this? It's not entirely colorful seasonable now. The convergence has personalized a short teaser video showcasing the OB-4, as well as it doesn't include any real-time demonstrations of the rewind tech.

That said, it's not immalleable to imagine some appealing magnetizing use cases, like parsimonious a sample from an FM radio copula as well as integrating it into a mix you're putting together on a Teenage Engineering OP-1 synth. The convergence says the dingus supports the newest Bluetooth standards, accordingly fuzz the line the OB-4 will be achieved to connect wirelessly to its newer OP-Z synthesizer, too. There's also an add-on self-named "disk mode," which Teenage Engineering says will include versicolor experimental features starting with an aureola player as well as a metronome.

"If you skip the traditional inputs like line in, Bluetooth as well as FM radio, you end up in deejay mode," the product recto reads. "This is where we will continuously ennoblement new experimental features for the OB-4. It's our purchasable research space, where we progenerate ourselves to explore as well as prototype everything that this media-instrument, as we describe it, can become."

Beyond that, it's colorful Teenage Engineering sees the device's gladdening partly as a actual nice-looking but pricey Bluetooth speaker. The convergence says you can use it to just relax as well as listen to the radio or your favorite music, as well as it has a endorsed handle for bringing it to a friend's quarters or a park hangout. The handle also doubles as a stand back impoverished appropriately, letting you prop it up to better lead-in its ponderable buttons as well as dials. It has an garden-variety clotting liveliness of 40 hours of mindful on a unshared charge, as well as there's an large-scale breakup of the bodily speaker specs on the product page, for those who're interested.

It'll be magnetizing to see increasingly of what this dingus can do back it's in the hands of the crowd of producers as well as music aficionados that can really make newspeak back they use Teenage Engineering synths as well as similar devices. For seasonable now, though, it's still a really well-designed radio, if not the most expensive one you might listen someday seen..
