How does distortion work in electric guitars?

As the signal is being delivered from the pick ups, sent to an amplifier or preamplifier the "Visual Sound waves" are altered according to a pre-defined template and distributed through the amplifiers with more noise and distortion.

To effectively use distortion, play moderately close to the bridge, or behind the 3rd pick-up (2nd if only 2 pickups fitted) to get the best possible distorted effect possible.

If you are using an amplifier, have the volume lower than usual, increase gain, bass and decrease treble tone. Alter accordingly until you find that which sounds best distorted.

What is the best sounding USB turntable?

There is one "audiophile" USB turntable- the Pro-Ject Debut III USB. It is regarded as an "introductory level" audiophile turntable at $500. Good audiophile turntables cost $10,000 and more. At the other end of the spectrum are the ones you normally hear about- Ion Audio, Sony, Crosley and Audio-Technica (among others). These run around $100 (or more if they have additional features, like built-in CD burners). You will not get the best sound from these "consumer" USB turntables but they are affordable. To get the best sound quality, avoid the "ceramic cartridges" that are so prevelant on these $100 USB record players. These will muffle the high and low frequencies and wear out your records quicker. Another tip is getting a USB turntable with anti-skate adjustment. This ensures the needle stays in the center of the record groove, where it sounds the best. It also allows you to upgrade the cartridge to something that sounds better.

How do you remove the 2 inch black border around the LCD on a CDT Satellite Pro Laptop?

Go to display settings and try to adjust the screen resolution. The screen resoultion you use right now is too low.

If you have an lcd monitor and let's say it has resolution 1024 / 768 and you select a lower resolution, like 800/600, the screen behaves in two ways:

stretches the image to occupy the entire screen, interpolating the pixels - will fill the entire screen

OR

occupies a zone somewhere in the middle of the screen, of the exact size of the setting. This will leave the black border you are talking about.

Solution: adjust the monitor settings. Be careful: selecting a resolution bigger than the screen will make only a portion of the screen visible, and the entire screen will scroll. Usually you don't want this to happen either.

Or

Check your graphics card catylist and make sure you have same 64 or 32 bit (same as OS) download to find flat-pannel screen scan settings. This will allow you to over scan down to remove as much boarder as you like; then check the box allowing same graphics settings to be same as desktop settings.
