You're welcome to dislike him - but I certainly disagree with the notion that talking about music on his channel is the same a stealing someone's melody in a song. I suggest you read about "fair use" - it's relevant here. If what he was doing wasn't covered under fair use he'd get a copyright strike (and has before).

I'm really puzzled why you would do that? I think his channel is a gift to real music and everything he's done seems respectful and with fair rights. Seriously - what do you have against the guy?

Nice!

My wife and I just saw him live a few weeks ago. Lot of positive energy at his show - lots of families with kids too, which was a little unexpected.

I picked up Life and started to play with it - really interesting tool!

He is a big guy. He does look like he's lost a bunch of weight though and that's great to see!

Turns out ChatGPT knows about it. 💪 This should be fun!

Thanks guys - none of these are what I'm dreaming about or solutions for my specific problem. If I get something working I'll let you know!

Scott - here's what I'm dreaming of - maybe you know of something that does this? I am a guitar player not a keyboard player. I can bang out things but really can't play or easily find interesting chord voicings. As I write songs I know the key and the chords but I struggle creating keyboard parts (chords mostly) that are deep and interesting. Here's what I'm envisioning. 1. You choose a key. 2. Zone 1: an octave section for the left hand. The note is latching - whatever the last key you pressed is that root of any chords that get played. 3. Zone 2: 1 to 2 octaves for the left hand. Each note would be a chord voicing. Probably from least complex to most complex. Say I have an Am spot in a song and I want a great keyboard chord. I could press the A key with the left hand to latch and play only A chords. Say I choose Am for the key - then all chord voicings will be minor. I could just press a single key the right hand to try out different chord voicings. The plugin will output the full voicing keys so you do this so you can record the output chord to a midi track for further editing. I had hoped Cthulhu would do something like this but it's different. Thoughts?

I signed the contract for the design yesterday after we had a great call and they talked me through the process a bit. This is going to be a BIG project. They will be physically modelling my gear and furniture so they can build acoustic models of the room and I'll get 3d renders as we determine the design. I don't like the idea of taking so long but I'm going to engage and enjoy the process as much as possible. I'll start a new thread when the project starts and I'll keep it updated for those that want to follow. 🌞

Sure! That's a fun little piece. It's a little hut and palm tree carved out of iron wood we bought from an artist who lives on a beach in Negril, Jamaica.

In front of the album. Ah, I'm sorry I wasn't specific! I was referring to the picture with the album in it.

It's the microphone. 🌞 Alan talks about using this Neumann on snare and he uses it on acoustic guitar. I got it for acoustic guitar and it's amazing how much it "sounds like an album" to record an acoustic guitar through that mic into a Neve pre. So I guess both my acoustic recording and bass recording techniques came from Alan. Thanks Alan! 🙏

Nope. Nope. lol

Hi Scott - long time no speak! 🌞✌ Thanks for the link. I have an idea for a chord exploration plugin that I think I can do with Plug 'N Script. If I can pull it off and it works I might have someone code it and release it.
