I've used my MODX7 as a top board and its light weight makes it fine for that although the MODX6 would probably do just as fine. I usually use my MODX7+ as a bottom board and an Arturia Keylab Mk 2 61 as the top one

It's somewhat overkill but I use MainStage to do that - sends MIDI changes to each board as i change songs in MainStage

Quite a few times over the past several months I get the occasional popup from Safari telling my I have web accounts whose passwords have appeared in data leaks and an offer to help secure them. So I went to Safari setup and the passwords section. 136 security recommendations. Almost all of them say "this password has appeared in a data leak". Half are for accounts tied to email that I no longer have access to. You would think that every web site I have ever logged into has a data leak. I'm really starting to wonder what they consider a data leak. I'm also wondering about timing. If a company has a data leak are they marking any account to that company as "in danger"? And most of all, are they considering whether or not the encryption of the master password file was broken?
Do you get these messages? Do you go in and change every password mentioned?
Yep I get lots of these as well - I change what I can but like you a lot are related to old email addresses...

AI is predicted to have an exponential growth in capability right? And it's just starting right? So how can we know?
Enjoy the journey. Play music. Have fun.
This exactly - any assertions that AI will 'never' do particular things is rubbish - it's like saying in the very early 1990s that web browsers would never progress beyond Netscape
Doesn't mean I wouldn't love some strict regulation and even an improvement in what is a dicey career path for musicians even pre-AI...

My MODX7 has been my main gigging board for several years. If I'm just playing synths and organs, it is fine. (Organ is vB3m on an ipad). There is a kind of "delicate" feel to it that takes a little getting used to, like on some arpeggios you have to be very precise about how to strike the keys on your way up and down the board -- it's not very forgiving, because the keys are so light that any "slop" in your playing will immediately be revealed by the adjacent key being struck and sounding off.
I hadn't thought of that and a great point - I thought it was just my sloppy playing (and that's probably still part of it) but I definitely experience this. Love my MODX7 overall, particularly after adding in the Purgatory Creek EPs and third party organ sounds..

Yep they've been around a few years now, went huge during COVID. Have seen them live once, they do a great job. Have interviewed and done a rig tour with their main keys guy (Dave Ross) - really nice guy

OK so this particular RB video might not appeal to some or ruffle others' feathers a bit - but can you imagine your mortgage payment dependent on cranking out multiple videos every week of the year, year after year? If I were to ask anybody here if they could come up with good topics to make 5 - 15 minute long videos about, twice a week, continuously for a few years, how many of us could do it? Not to mention the time involved editing them. I've done some of this myself - it f%$king took me HOURS to make 15 - 20 minute long videos for an online kids' music course I did during the pandemic. Try it sometime!
Perfectly put

I'd agree this is not one of his best - cannot believe he's surprised that musicians pick up tuning better than non-musicians....

Well, more than just music, it's 'everything' AD-FREE with YouTube Premium. Access to the largest catalogue compared to all others.
Music, video (and videos that can be played music only), players for nearly every device, playlist galore, excellent curation, user space to upload your library, background playback. Just about everything one needs at a low monthly.
I'm not in love with any of these behemoths, I'm just saying given streaming is the new norm ad-free YTP becomes serious and obvious bang for the buck. Can (easily) replace the need for those stuck with the cable/direct tv snakes for most as well.Agree with this - I got rid of Spotify sub with pleasure and now use YT premium and Apple Music

For current band I have the repertoire on a YT playlist. Spotify playlist and Apple music playlist - with most members using the YT one but a couple use the others.
-
Yep you can download synced versions of each audio and video file - I literally just drop them into my editing software and they align perfectly. Early on I had the odd sync issue but not recently

Great to catch up with Jim, some great stories from the trenches of the TV house band. Enjoy!

I had the pleasure of chatting with Padd Milner last week, who provided piano for this doco - from what I can tell they are still nailing down a distributor...

Nursers, my friend, a technical question. What is your signal chain and routing for recording calls (however you are getting them) concurrently with your in-house audio?
Great question - I'm using the Riverside platform, so get WAV files for each member of the interview including myself

Might also be this, an 88 note hardware version of Arturia Analog Lab V software called AstroLab:
https://device.report/arturia/astrolab-88
There also appears to be a 61 note and mini version:
https://device.report/arturia/astrolab-61
https://device.report/arturia/astrolab-mini
The name "AstroLab" would be consistent with the astronaut in Arturia's promo video.
Oh please let it be so - would be a killer offering I'd certainly consider really seriously.

That was amazing, had never seen that! I'm not buying that it was spontaneous but wow!

Hopefully he sounds better than Wayne Newton does these days. They're around the same age but Wayne is just a shell of his former voice.
Tom's is still strong - I reckon he's still probably got 70% of what he had at his peak

Also the song he did with Chicane, Stoned In Love, listen to the verses and you'd not realise it's him, then the chorus comes in and it's him alright.
That's what I love about him - no voice like it. I always knew his older stuff but had pretty much dismissed him as a legacy artist until I saw this in the 90s and realised this guy was an ongoing innovator:

It's already weird that he's become the guy that 1970's Elvis C would have punched in the face. It's best to let some heroes just go on being who we think instead of who they actually are!
Agreed - I'm currently listening to the audio book Exit Stage left - https://www.theguardian.com/books/2022/may/10/exit-stage-left-by-nick-duerden-what-happens-once-the-hits-have-dried-up - and it has a similar premise in a lot of ways
