Jean Alesi A god in yellow overalls

Advantages: Style, temperament and a well needed character for the sport
Disadvantages: needs more testing when it becomes avaliable to gain knowledge of the car

...Jean Alesi is a great driver who drives with every ounce of passion and desire as his begginings in the 1989 Tyrrell. Now in the Jordan, he looks around 25 in the overalls, hes got the desire and a car that he can demonstrate his brilliant racecraft and potential as a hard racer. His last fewcars have been disapointing, Saubers and Prosts, but hes managed in the main to squeeze something out of them and has never given up on the desire to compete. His celebrations after minor point`s scores this seasons races show how even small achievements, light the fire of his competitive edge Now even though the oldest on the grid, he still wants to race, unlike Damon Hill who was just there to pick up his pension money, he is in a top team and , if he`s offered a contract there for next season he copuld be a race winner again if Jordan can...

Review of Jean Alesi

Heart of a Sicilian

Advantages: Great Skill and Heart.
Disadvantages: went to the Wrong teams at the wrong times

...The man who never recieved the rewards that he deserved. This man gave it his all and yet failed to pick up a championship. Whats even more unbelieveable is that he only won a single Grand Prix in his 11 year quest for the crown. Despite this Jean Alesi is still rated as one of the top 50 drivers ever to have competed in the top ranks of Motorsport, i.e Formula One. In my eyes though he stands in the top five as one of the Greats. Meeting Jean Alesi I have been a fan of Jean Alesi for years and I have been to a few British Grand Prix. But I am also in his fan clun and had the pleasure of meeting him at Silverstone for a track day out. He actually paid for the meal for me and the other fans and lots of Drink. We had a few chats and i think he is just the greatest person. He loves talking to the fans because he knows how much we love...

Review of Jean Alesi

Racing with his heart sets the heart racing

Advantages: Not an automaton, great car control, rain ability
Disadvantages: Tends to make the wrong choices for his career

...(Updated 12/10/01 - new section at the end) Ah, this is much more like it. What we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is a racing driver. A proper one. By which I mean a man who is brilliant, appalling, idiotic, unpredictable, emotional, determined and inspired by turns. In fact, quite often all at once. French-Sicilian Alesi is one of the last of the true racers in Formula One, and as such we should feel privileged to watch him. Jean burst upon the F1 scene way back in 1989, driving for Tyrrell, and finishing in a superb fourth place - from sixteenth on the grid. What really woke people up to his talent, though, was that extraordinary battle he had with Ayrton Senna's McLaren in Phoenix the next year. For thirty laps he held Senna off, and even when the McLaren driver did force his way past, Jean, in a breathtaking manoeuvre, retook...

Review of Jean Alesi

Rain master

Advantages: Experienced driver
Disadvantages: Too experienced?

...Jean Alesi is currently the most experienced driver that is still racing in Formula One. He is known to be a very good driver in the rain, but recently Prost hasn't really anabled Alesi to put in any good drives. He seems like a nice fellow, and I quite liked the Ferrari dou for severl years, which included GEhard Berger and Jean Alesi. A very experienced driver, but is he coming to the end of his racing career? I think he still has some time left, hopefully more competitive than right now. It would be nice to see Alesi right back up at the front. If I'm correct, he's only won one race in his entire career, which was in canada. He should have won more, but still very good, and when he has a competitive car, he is regularly finding himself on the podium....

Review of Jean Alesi

Handy but dull

Advantages: cheap, easy to use
Disadvantages: no effects limited sound editing, dull sounds

...The Alesis SR-16 holds the title of the best selling drum machine of all time and some would say with good reason. The sound quality that this machine can produce is excellent but the drawback is that the 230 odd sounds contained within the unit are uniformly dull and uninspiring. If you need a workhorse set of drum sounds for backing tracks etc then the SR16 will do the job in style but i would not recommend it to anyone who has any kind of imagination in their music. The operating system is fairly straightforward but some of the pattern editing is fairly cryptic if you don't have a manual, apart from that it's pretty easy to figure out whats going on. The SR16 can has 150 somewhat dodgy preset patterns but you can create another 150 of your own to string together in the 100 available songs. Outputs consist of a stereo pair and an pair...

Review of Alesis SR-16

Back to the top with Jordan

Advantages: Very skilled
Disadvantages: Getting old

...He had a dubut as brilliant as Michael Schmachers and he has only managed to win one race in his career. He is now in the twilight of his career and is as good as ever. His only problem with formula one is picking the wrong team at the wrong time, but his move to Jordan will show us the fast Jean Alesi. The oppertunity came when Jordan driver Frentzen was sacked for going too slow and I'm sorry I agree. His speed wasn't the same as 1999 when he was outstanding, but now it looks like he's pulling a caravan. The move to Jordan will definately suit him and his driving skills, I think he will outspeed Jarno Truilli. He was having a better year with Prost but still not a good one and when the opertunity to drive for a better car came he wanted it more than anybody else at the back of the grid. Meanwhile Frentzen will move to Prost and try...

Review of Jean Alesi

X25 Photon, or just protons?

Advantages: Ease of use, many interchangeable settings
Disadvantages: AXYZ dome

...Well the Alesis photon X25, is your standard 25 key midi interface, with a few more adjustable settings than most. Looks: With its sleek design, Led lights, an the AXYZ dome. This thing can be beautriful, but mainly by your own opinion. Im sure many would say it is quite some what ugly with the Organge LED's. But as with most things, these LED's are in actualy fact functional. Ease of Installation: After plugging in, all you have to do is dunk the CD into your drive, and follow the instuctions. If you wish to install Cubase LE, an included product with this, then your installation will be a little more complicated, but not a lot. Feel: The keys feel comfortable, however, at times they do not pick up the sound if you play very softly, but generally all is well. The sound changing knobs are well spread out, and the different...

Review of Alesis Photon X25

Pro quality home recording at home on a budget

Advantages: Good value and flexible mixer, works well with PC. Cubase is a nice bonus.
Disadvantages: Knobs not sliders, no MP3 encoder with Cubase but these are minor details

.... This meant there was no way to record a band together live or even just drums on their own which require at least 3 or 4 separate mics. It's important that each instrument and vocal is recorded separately so that you can balance their relative volume levels after recording. FIREWIRE RULES OK! Having looked around the best solution for being able to record several tracks at the same time directly to the PC looked like the Alesis Firewire range. Firewire (or IEEE 1394 to give it it's technical name) is another way of connecting devices to a PC similar to USB but offering better data transfer performance. Most modern PCs now come with a firewire connection as standard but, if you have an older PC that doesn't, you can always get a firewire PCI expansion card for under £10. You may notice that the mixer has two firewire connections but...
