Whenever I think I find something in Logic that I can triumphantly shout, "Aha! Pro Tools rules!" about, I find a way around it.

Clip gain, for example: there's no little handle on the clips, but 2 keystrokes give you a tool to do it.

Then I find things that are very cool indeed: There's a tool that strips out silences and trims the clips automatically, and you can batch-add fades at the start and ends of multiple clips at the same time.

I imagine that, given the leaking to the Murdoch propaganda organisation part is not in dispute, the investigation should be pretty simple, but... πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

In reality, however, I reckon it's a pretty good bet ol' Walter can rely on his mates to cover this nonsense up like they always do,,,

I hope not, but πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Looks like everything's going great! πŸ‘

Also: I have immense sympathy for the hard work that goes into developing and distributing a useable app, but you generally want to launch one that works at least a bit. And, as for "Customer Care"... Yeeesh πŸ™„

This is a... novel?... approach to an article about housing costs... πŸ€”

Starting to get the hang of Logic a bit more now. Some neat tools...

My only small nitpick so far is that the menu and toolbar system is a little opaque. I expect there's a way to customise things more, though, so there may be a way to make it suit dopey old me yet πŸ˜‚

I live a little too far north for the Aurora Australis this week (and, obviously, *WAY* too far south for the Aurora Borealis), so this made me giggle:

This happens more often these days:

Every time it does, the usual bunch of people triumphantly cry, "See? You climate alarmists thought that the world would dry up, but it's not! Haha!"

It's a weird flex, really. Apart from having the whiff of those guys who go into the US Congress with a snowball, there's another important little nugget they seem not to grok:

There's not supposed to be so much rain that the dam always spills over.

I think maybe the version of Logic I've used is a bit older than this one 😬

Some initial thoughts:

I really dig some of the stuff I've found so far (such as the way it interacts with my control surface to colour the tracks πŸ‘‡), but stuff like the routing is very weird.

It's unsurprisingly tough going to break 30 years of Pro Tools...

Okee-dokee. Here we go.

I've used this occasionally at other people's places, but critical mass appears to have been reached with people wanting to send me Logic sessions, so it's time to start a properly steep learning curve.

I bought this book while studying authoritarianism at university, and I find myself going back to it regularly after reading the news these days.

It's highly respected in academic circles and contains a widely cited definition of fascism. The language isn't too academic-y, though, so it's an easy and interesting read.

It's likely to be in a lot of libraries, and it only costs $AU16.99 on Kindle (that's probably $US2.00 πŸ˜‚ ). If you're interested in history and whatnot, it's well worth a look.

You can almost see the cogs turning.

The centre(?)-right party here has scared the centre-left government so much that they're prepared to get in bed with the fossil fuel people in spite of their traditional base.

Their MPs who won the seats that got them into government are naturally upset. However, the PM is clearly planning not to call an election until the full term expires a year from now so that the din will die down.

Yeah, nah. I'm good.

As I've gotten older, one of the best things I've learned is that there are things that are for me and things that are not, rather than things that 21-year-old me would've thought were either siiiick! or shite.

Those seem pretty clever, but they're not for me, a guy who thinks this pretty much does everything πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
