Photo of the Day - December, 2020

Thanks! Top toolbar (menu), under the banner/header, the one which begins with Forums at the left and then proceeds through New Posts, What's New, Media, etc..... Awards comes right before Chat, which is the last item listed. When you click on it, there is a drop-down menu which describes the categories and number of winners in each. So far I'm the one and only! I'm sure that will change quickly as others receive their own awards for various aspects of their participation, too.....

One of my first photos taken with the iPhone 1. Doesn’t take much of a zoom to get blurry.

Nah, that was at the SoCal NAMM convention that year, just a visitor.

Interestingly the Ableton forum is where I cut my teeth on posting on a subforum completely unrelated to the company that provided it. It was the wild west where it was perfectly acceptable to respond to a post with "kill yourself" and occasionally saying the CEO should eat a dick. I have no idea how it was allowed to go on like that for years before they realized they are a company with a product to sell and therefore shouldn't let the degenerates run amuck on their official forum.

I made several good friends from that forum and went to that NAMM show with one of them. Have to say it was a bit awkward meeting the Ableton bigwigs given my performance on their forum but we had some drinks and good laughs.

Ableton is still hot but some DAWs are starting to catch up with some of their experimental composing features like the loop grid session view.

I drove down from Oregon and attended NAMM in 2006, had a blast. In those days I owned and ran www.guitars101.com and had a lot of active members who were hooked up so I was able to get a pass.

Is it pathetic that I still remember what I eyed that year at NAMM? (Never got to buy it...didn't need it anyway...).
Logic did a pretty good job integrating the loop grid session in the Summer update.
Too bad I have no time to play around with these anymore.

found it:

It felt much more appealing then...

PreSonus FaderPort

Hands-on control of your DAW can speed up your workflow considerably, but what if you don't want or need a console-sized controller? Enter the Presonus Faderport...

Oh, the Faderport. I had a newer modal than that, probably still do buried in a box somewhere . I also had one of those big tank Mackie Control mixers. Eventually it ended up back in its box and a couple years ago I donated it to a school. I found it took up too much space and wasn't really value added to my process.

We had our first snowstorm today! About three inches..... Fun to watch it coming down, but I'm not planning on going out anywhere in it!
