I traded in my M1 Air for a 15" M3 Air. 13 is too small for me and my aging eyes. Not having to use one of the Thunderbolt 4 ports for power will help. My M1 MacBookPro has a HUB and a 4TB SSD velcroed to the back of the monitor, permanently attached. I plan to keep installs on the lite side with the Air. No NI Komplete taking up huge amounts of space. No loop libraries. Just my favorite VSTi's. -
Absolutely agree with this. Refusing is like leaving a job and failing to help train your replacement. Good advice, Steve. -

Great solo. Inspired me to sit down and figure it out. I got most of it. Tony was a genius. -
It's not a taboo topic. While selling gear is relatively easy; when it comes to selling sounds and music, it's a different kettle.😁😎 -
That makes sense. But frankly, these days I chart out even simple tunes because I just forget what is what. Bandleader calls out a tune and I can't remember which one that is, especially if it is simple and sounds a lot like other songs, and was part of a whole bunch of new tunes I had to learn. Like 'Sugar' (Maroon 5), I just have a four bar chord chart to remind me what it is, and it what key. So a lot of these are not actual charts, the songs don't require that, but the music equivalent of sticky notes, I guess.

I remember seeing the ads in Keyboard and a picture of the Odyssey on the Musicians Friend catalog. I really wanted one but ended up with the MiniMoog because it was available. In the late 70's you didn't have a lot of choices in a small rural town. Was very interested when this came out but reviews of the horrible touch pads scared me away. Wish it had more jacks for interfacing with the Behringer 2600. Still, maybe someday. Wonder how it compares to the Korg version?

Carlo, you make that Oddy sound fabulous! I have a black-face Oddy and Axxe in my garage, have had both since the '80's, and both need new sliders, probably new caps, and a ton of cleaning. But hearing you play it made me feel nostalgic for that sound! Given the price of the Behringer, it'll probably be cheaper to just buy a new one than to fix mine. -

OT - just a comment on the original white face Oddy - I modified mine so I had an octave up/down switch. Also changed the pitch knob to one which had a notch sticking out so that I could curl my little finger round it and be confident that I could return it to the neutral position. And I managed to rewire the modulation slider on the first oscillator so that the second oscillator modulated too. It was all very ambitious of me, with not much real understanding of what I was doing, but it worked nicely. i hung onto it for years, only selling it off about 10 years ago. Nowadays I occasionally use the app on the iPad. It’s close enough for me.
