    • Here's another vulgar twist in the 150 mph march of AI. Yikes!   "Google has launched a new feature within its AI-powered NotebookLM research assistant that turns your notes into a fake podcast. To do so, users just need to click ‘Load’ under the new Audio Overview tool found within the Notebook guide. From here, NotebookLM will generate your notes into the form of a short audio podcast. We have tried it out for ourselves, and it’s freakishly realistic.   As explained on Google’s The Keyword blog, Audio Overview is “a new way to turn your documents into engaging audio discussions”. It further adds, “With one click, two AI hosts start up a lively ‘deep dive’ discussion based on your sources. They summarise your material, make connections between topics, and banter back and forth. You can even download the conversation and take it on the go.”     ~ from Musictech.com   Cool! Now you can just let Siris blither at one another while you make a cheese sammich and watch "Jackass." No human required once you leave the cashier's window! I expected an eventual Robot Uprising, but I thought I'd get a chance to shoot a few of them. No fair putting them in my own computer. Bad form, Smedley! 🤨
    • If you have an ever changing keyboard rig and stands it can be a challenge. These aren't perfect but they sure look better than spaghetti. They're cheap and super flexible to different setup configurations gig per gig.  They fold up very small and light. Not a perfect solution, but a very flexible and workable solution.  There's a lot of different similar products in varying lengths. And if you don't like them, you're only out a few bucks. https://www.amazon.com/Management-Sleeve-JOTO-Computer-Entertainment/dp/B015HWXG4M/ref=sr_1_3?crid=JRTO17EM9TY1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xJTvFr_LeEc3495rJ-IOJrpx7C6s5fQXB30QwiMLBrz9T8zJM4rcyeQ8fzYzP_nHeVDEdqEx4rUUcD6pvHTjwaTmNNC7V0wsqMrNmB5Fn6Vgw9SNjCxjR6oLz9sSb0qPJxWADnmDRTf1YGwtPMAg4JQN0MCD-mQ3JJ7UbCX0VapdcdKCAhA0XoZcOro3PzQNxIsQpo3NaP2Rut5HgE6a8vRyb1Lw631iTgMAmGvZLV4.IzS9ODNlrd1_w8GgYmFFrsrxJUF_yHqLnCk6315IRwY&dib_tag=se&keywords=zip%2Bup%2Bcable%2Borganizer&qid=1726872077&sprefix=zip%2Bup%2Bcable%2Caps%2C783&sr=8-3&th=1          
    • Paint the top keyboard black and call it a day. It's the only problem here.
    • Rhodes for sure!
    • I use split sleeve (the soft flex stuff) for custom snakes (stereo pairs, FOH runs) and some really small diameter sleeve on the dreaded wall wart cables (stiffens them, makes them easy to coil and they don't tangle). If you get the flex (assuming that's the "mesh" talked about above), get the split stuff FOR SURE.  I've never had a cable pop out though I do gaffer tape or velcro around each end where the cables leave the mesh...not really sure that's necessary though.  If you don't get the split stuff, be prepared for the old finger torture game to get cables in and out. My two stands--K&M spider pro and K&M Omega pro--are pretty different in how I deal with cables. Omega pro--I run things along the back of the keyboard, around the "knee" on each corner (under the keyboard) and then down each leg, where I have K&M cable holders to hold them tight.  Spider--everything runs to the middle to the gap between the column and each keyboard, then along the front of the column away from the audience.  At the bottom they then go where they need to go but it's pretty much out of sight.
