One free tool opens a portal to some of the most bleeding-edge synthesis and effects tools out there. Let's break it down -- what's there for creators, but also why pretty much everyone will want to grab this, whether they patch or not.

Scientists have been trying to understand the vocalizations of birds—and discovering that the animals have intellectual abilities far greater than most people had imagined.

Worth a watch just to see how they think/talk about this, even if you're focused on other platforms. And music badly needs this.

Right now, we can all use some bop in our lives. I love the intro: “You probably don’t have any use for bop."
So, in the *inverse* of all the music tech that's convinced we need it when we don't have a use for it, this one is humble and we do! Free, fun, friendly, fresh:

I know the onslaught is overwhelming right now, but it's important to have the details on this so that we can help fight back. I mean both inside and outside the USA, as these campaigns are globalized. And we are not whole as a music and music tech community without our trans friends and colleagues.
1. Yesterday, Trump released a broad anti-trans executive order that could have extreme impacts on transgender people's lives if implemented.
There has been much discussion of what it actually does.
In my latest piece, I go line by line to explain it.

The plan was always to flood the zone with shit.
Not everyone can respond to every outrage. That's on purpose. But no need to get mad at someone for focusing on stuff *you* don't think is important. Let everyone focus on what they want to focus on.
