SynthFest France 2024, Nantes, France

It was shown (in working condition) at Winter NAMM. In a private soundroom, but one that had a big glass wall on the aisle, so everyone could see it was there. I got in to try it... it was very nice. -
Warren Vache? Nice...

The point has already been made that different people/roles require different things. No matter what, I would always find the YT link, download the file and work on it within some sort of transcription software (I have settled on Transcribe! after a number of years). No matter whether I can easily hear it or not, I have been making charts as a reminder of the chords AND the form of the tune. Coming into the gig I can easily listen and remember tunes, but then after not playing a tune for a year or two, coming back to it is often at least a temporary blank for me (I'm old enough to have forgotten more tunes than I can currently remember!). So my chart is a quick reminder for me, even if I don't need to keep looking at it on the gig. Just a good jump-start to get my synapses firing again. I think a good leader would prep both a playlist and YT links, but whatever the case, I take care of what I need in my preferred fashion. Jerry

OT - What are you listening to right now?

Always love when the Dregs get mentioned. Great band. But this track is from before T's time in the band - it's Mark Parrish on keys. -
That's nice to hear. I've been working with Arturia for a couple of years now, on the revisions of the acoustic piano, Rhodes, Wurly, and the new CP70. My friend Jonathan Leonard works on the models with my input, and then a larger team develops presets when we've gotten the model(s) as good as we can. I know we feel we upped the quality a lot from the original versions, but it's nice to hear some affirmation from others. Jerry

He's graphically saying "tread carefully"... I had to look up JazzPiano88's names... seems to be saying she could be a murderer. Sometimes we're too cute (and/or snarky) for our own good online... But I will say I found TommyRude's response funny.

Often these retail people don't really know the internal workings/decisions/details of engineering. It's just "sales speak".

I’ve also been using Gear Exchange and they have a well-thought-out system. As Rabid said, it’s taken a while for some pieces, but I’ve been happy. And if you have them handle the shipping label the cost is very good. Sold 4 things through them so far and everything has gone great. Jerry

I can’t speak to their love of puzzles, but in my long experience I do know that they are not put off by long, multi-step processes to achieve an end result. They don’t suffer from the impatience that so many of us do. I was able to address that in a lot of features we put into KORG gear after I started there. Things in the Triton were my first visible examples of that. Not meaning to make this about me, just sharing some first-hand observations/knowledge.
