@chickenbucketfc Do Red Bulls actually have a fan base who’d watch though? When we play there lately the stadium’s pretty empty. Not at all being Red Bull snarky here but I’ve wondered about this for a while.

MLS is out of sight out of mind. These metrics for a championship game are terrible.

@Keith_McPherson Heard that live last night, was totally hilarious segment!

On the radio caller Justin from Floral Park said "he's gonna call this week A.S. after Soto". I said "nah these days should be called A.S.S". After Soto Switched 😂 running with that

Seeing the Eno movie. Again LOL

Posted a new YouTube video: Synthesis Technology E430 Morphing VCF. Got an early look at the new E430 filter and it's pretty darn amazing. youtu.be/V1pffBGRpgI #synthesizer #modular #euroRack #synthesisTechnology

Just received my CME H4MIDI WC. This thing is really good, and about half the size I was expecting (which is good!). It's a USB Host MIDI interface, two in and two out, but it also does Bluetooth (optional) and USB devices as well. #synth #MIDI

Video recorded, now in the editing phase. The soon-to-be-released Synthesis Technology E430 Morphing SVF, in a sense the filter from the Oberheim SEM except with added filter morphing controls not in the original. The thing sounds amazing. #synthesizer #modular

“Last chance, Marie.” <clicks seatbelt> “There’s gonna be a bump.” <stairs> #bourne #MiniCooper

In these dismal no-more-baseball times the arrival of my new @The7Line light-up home run apple/train has made me extremely happy LOL #LGM

This is probably the best thing you’ll see all day… |McCoy Tyner playing a solo together with John Coltrane, Elvin Jones and Jimmy Garrison|

@Nikolozi Slight counterpoint: Over the past 20 years I’ve been able to move more or less seamlessly from Digital Performer to Ableton Live to Logic Pro because I mostly use third-party plug-ins. Not at all disagreeing on your possible hoarding point but portability can be an advantage.

Artists ignore DAW's quality built-ins to hoard third-party plug-ins (often worse), driven by the same collector’s mindset that fills studios with endless synths and guitars.

@Nikolozi I really need AUM for Mac. Gig Performer is exactly that, except no MIDI channels (!). Why? I’ll have to check others out. Cubase? Studio One? Digital Performer? Don’t know. I need independent MIDI channels, with separately startable sequencers.

@Nikolozi Is there some technical reason this isn’t done? I used Live for years until the moment Logic added launchable cells but I still have a license for it. But Logic, while allowing MIDI plug-ins, only has it per audio channel. That means no universal AUM-style MIDI channels.

Anyone know why Ableton Live doesn't yet support MIDI plug-ins?

I've seen loads of their videos, listened to tons of their music, but this is the first new album of theirs I've been able to listen to for the very first time. Was worth the wait.

Now Playing: Superkilen, new album out today from Svaneborg Kardyb. Two guys playing keyboards and drums. Peaceful, beautiful, like waking through a quiet forest in the fall. Or something. svaneborgkardyb.com

@Nikolozi It’s totally usable, just a bit small. Screen, and hand for size comparison. I think Apple stores have Logic loaded on the demo iPads if there’s one near you if you want to give it a try.

@selgart If the iPad mini lets you use Logic while standing in line, that’s a win. Pull it from your pocket when inspiration hits. But if the UI isn’t optimised, it’s a letdown.

What's it like to use Logic Pro on an iPad mini?

@Nikolozi All that being said, I use AUM on iPad a ton more than Logic. And honestly I wish they would make a Mac version. Or the converse, I wish Logic would add a MIDI channel instead of only having MIDI effects. But bottom line, Logic is usable on the iPad mini (but small LOL).

@Nikolozi I do it occasionally. Tiny compared to my 13" Pro but on the other hand I can fit it in a (large) pocket so I’m much more likely to have it with me when I’m out. Kind of not recommended as Logic needs the space but it does work when inspiration strikes.

@flightradar24 I once saw a bunch of dots on the map and had no idea what they were. Turns out it was a hot air balloon festival. They moved really slowly!

What's the most interesting flight you have followed on Flightradar24, and why?

At the Tarrytown Music Hall to see Rick Wakeman
