Bro thinks he’s Rick beato now😂

Truth

Any opinion on roland studio capture or any of the smaller roland interfaces?

I just went through an issue with having the Follow plug in select checked would crash Eucon when selecting a plugin on an Aux track. I just turned the feature off once I found out what it was and got back to work. They Really need to stop with the adding features and get a stable version of the software.

EUCON IS BOSS FULL STOP!!!!!!!! They just need to create a real channel strip controller laid out like a channel strip with a touch screen. Something that looks like the Scheps Omni Channel 2.

Gotta say Barry I was expecting a grumpy man yells at cloud moment, but I think you did a great job being nuanced and optimistic. Keying in that great music is still being made and not being pushed / received to the cultural forefront is a key difference.

I’m 68 and I feel your pain, Barry. And there’s nothing new under the sun. The vast majority of folks don’t care whether its Music or Muzak and they never have cared. There’s a reason they call it the Music 'Industry.' So I focus on small, live events. I write real songs that I can play live just as well as when I record them. That’s my rule: it has to sound just as good, or better, live. Of course I sweeten the recordings a bit here and there, but the acid test is the live audience.

The most boring video I have ever seen, tells you completely nothing

We need to be able to read and harmonize a folkstune on spot and compose music for only two flutes. Tell me here below how many composers you know that can do this:

These look really cool! Pretty much everything they make is great quality, but my only issue with them is their Customer Service. I recently bought one of the T-Racks bundles and it’s not working correctly. Whenever I open the plug-ins, they just tell me that the demo is expired and I need to purchase it. I don’t even know if they’ve got real people or just bots, because I’ve been getting the runaround on getting this fixed for three weeks now. And now they’ve just simply stopped responding after the second round of the same suggestions, which is why I think that they might just be bots. So I would definitely beware getting anything from this company, because if anything has a problem, you may have the same experience that I’m currently having. So buyer beware!!

In the middle of your video, I saw an add for some "Bubble Gum" music production software... the tagline was "just press 'generate'" ... we will never see, for example, another Frank Zappa.

The problem in my eyes, is the world has started valuing celebrities not musicians. Back in the 60s, 70s and even the 80s when music was played by ordinary looking people the music was good, most of the garbage today is manufactured celebrity culture that is fobbed off as music. I miss the days when musicians were valued for their playing and songwriting skills not what they looked like.

We hit the curve. Everything that can be said has been said. Its time for machines to speak.

I constantly check out all kinds of artists from all over the world, on for instance youtube channels like KEXP and Audiotree Live, and there's a lot of talent out there, great original songwriters, great performers, singing for real and playing actual instruments really well . . . but they're not mainstream and not on the top 40. That's the big difference - in the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s they would've been mainstream. I reckon the reason for the current state of affairs is a combination of streaming being the main means of consuming music, which requires no or very little commitment from listeners - actually buying a vinyl or CD album meant a financial commitment and a real appreciation of the music and artists; people seem to have a shorter concentration span; plus a huge amount of music is being released, much of it dumbed-down and totally forgettable. Not the same quality control as before. I have no solution to this - but the real stuff is out there, just not on the top 40

Andrew Masters was a great example of not maximizing what a good console process can do. If you go back and forth many times a day, then sure, a console would be silly. But with a process where a lot of stuff stays mostly patched in, the channels are all usually the same instruments and busses, then you can do a mix, print the busses at the end of the day (I print busses and a few individual tracks) and do all of the recalls as well as some automation from there. Or you can go the Joel Wanasek route and print each channel for instant recall through the board. The added bonus of a console is the limitations of not having SO MANY choices, and be able to do multiple things all in a few seconds. For those of us with ADHD, this is essential.

Most of us PC Weenies are not into Thunderbolt so I doubt that this will be as big of a problem for us and Apple is under dictatorship so the flexibility will not exist for the Mac fans.

You're right about musicianship. BUT spotify is not the measurement of interest. It is simply not relevant at least to me. Why listen to that? I put a CD or a Vinyl in/on my player and enjoy music. I keep myself up to date with several radio stations that I listen to. If there is something I like I go and buy the album of that particular artist. But maybe I am old fashioned as well, Barry ;-) I will never understand how anyone could listen to an online source without having a real copy on either a harddisc or a physical audio medium. What when the internet is down? What if the streaming service goes down or changes their policy? Never ever will I go that online music route. Regarding musicianship I'd like to call on David Grohl....something like: go make f**** music, if it sucks don't care, just make f*** music. We did and became the most famous band of the world. We became Nirvana. So go and suck! (It's not what he really said word by word, but it was similar) 🙂

70's was the peak of rock. 80's had some great memories.

all I can say is " OK Boomer" ....obviously just out of touch with modern music...old man yelling at the sky thinking his glory years where the best.....I grew up on "dad rock" also....yeah its a snooze fest I expanded and kept growing with the industry...some people did not keep growing.

With respect, it’s “SM7b”… not “SMb7”.

I jumped ship and back to a massively improved Cubase 13. And I’m very glad I did. Studio One has become too much about corporate greed since Fender took control. It’s such a shame because it’s great software with talented creatives behind it. I upgraded to S1v6 before all the madness got real and then discovered I was no longer entitled to complete ‘point upgrade’ because I hadn’t got a subscription!? … No! This is not the future of DAWs. This is an aggressive business jumping into music creation and trying to dictate to the consumer.

I am waiting on UAD gen 3/4! Hopefully Softube makes a Digital console controller and faders for the next generation of UAD's Dsp products!

Also, it’s has to be said that Spotify isn’t helping by not paying royalties fairly. Don’t use Spotify, they are part of the problem

Guitar rock bros like to blame the advent of drum machines, synths and samplers for the reason music has declined since 1979. But what actually happened was the technology allowed for the creation of new genres of music with new sonic textures and methods of musical expression. Rap, new wave, house, trance, techno, industrial, downtempo and so on. Fans of electronic music don't care how it was created as long as it slaps. Prince used an LM-1 drum machine and stacks of synthesizers to make hits. 100,000 songs being uploaded daily... must be something good in there somewhere! question is how do you find it.

Just like the never ending war or good vs evil. Good music will always have to fight three times as hard just to be considered for resources (label resources). Never gunna be fair. This is the reason why I do what I do for the prices that I do it for. However, the industry has created a stage, extremely unconventional, to where, now, the unknown indie artist market will begin to thrive because the music industry recently gave too many skilled professionals the boot due to budget cuts. It didn't matter how much you went to school, how much talent or potential you have. If you're just getting your feet wet and the company didn't feel you're worth the salary, you got cut. Those professionals are grouping up and forming a coalition to go back at the industry. On the outside looking in, it may not seem this controversial but those professionals who have been let go are vexed and will get revenge, professionally 😉. They will make a statement and in the process, open up new resources and networking capabilities to the lesser known but very talented indie community.

Your right musicians dont have value like they used too! Nobody wants to fail they take the easy route copy and press music. Originality and authenticity have been muted.

I think there is still a lot of great music being made, but it's just not what's on the radio, etc. For all the things I don't like about Spotify, I do like that I can find great bands with great songs and they play real instruments.

Nice shirt Barry.

The best guitar I own is a Schecter Custom Shop Sunset II with H-S-H pickup configuration. I'd like another one in H-S-S but unfortunately there's nowhere in Australia selling Schecter Custom Shop or Masterworks guitars anymore. As an alternative we do have a few dealers selling Suhr guitars. Hopefully they are similar quality to my Schecter.

There is still amazing music being made constantly and consistently the bigger issue is the algorithms feeding us what they want reducing organic discovery and inflating marketing, making so much so obscure.

There is definitely something missing in mainstream music that makes me want for more. With the attention span of people online musicians are awarded for trying to go viral and that leads to all music sounding exactly the same. I will push back and say though that we are already in a revolution. Post COVID I'm noticing lots more people excited about music and going to live events. I'm noticing a lot of younger people also enjoying these 90's and early 2000's rock bands that I grew up on. I honestly don't think the next BIG bands will be viral one hit wonders. I think they will be found by people seeing them live and having their socks blown off over and over again.

I'm a pc user who uses the x series of apollos all tb3 and very stable but I also use tons of dante. I wish UAD would go dante and I'd just abandon usb and thunderbolt completely. Kinda just super stable and fast

Love Rme

No apologies for hair metal. Still love it, always will. That and The sound of Philadelphia are my all time favorite genres and they could not be more different.

Todays music is boring. Theres some decent songs but its like 1out of 20. Music felt better back in the day. Im always checking out different music waiting, hoping...

don't get me started on the luthier at GC in Las Vegas. . .

100% true, the music of the 70’s & 80’s was the best by far than todays junk…..

Barry. People connect with music on an emotional level. Popular music today (as it always has been) is targeted at the young, way outside your or my demographic. It’s why most people think the greatest music came from whatever era was when they were young. There’s great music out there, but you have to look harder to find it, and at our age, going by what’s most popular will probably lead to disappointment.

Did they do a software/firmware change or something?!

No personality no heart Artificial Intelligence has no emotion even garbage has a small

AI music without a soul or spirit. The Video game generation with out imagination.

Viva La Revolution! 🤘💀🍻🔥

Barry, love yout content! But, i find these meters jumping on your background screen very distracting. My sight keeps going back to it. Maybe its just me,maybe the angle, no hate! Keep up, excelent job.All of your beautiful gear is enough backgroung, IMHO.💫💫💫

TB sounded cool when it was first announced as "Light Peak", but it turned out to be a half-baked idea that went through several revisions (read: downgrades) before its commercial launch. It was supposed to be optical, but that was scrapped. It was supposed to be much faster, but that was also scaled back. Now it is essentially Firewire but for the PCI Express era, with all the headaches and proprietary crap that made Firewire so freakin' expensive and troublesome. Only difference is, Firewire was very fast for its time. TB is only marginally faster than USB 3.2/4. TB is needed for external GPU users because that requires PCIe, but audio interfaces - even really fat ones - really don't need anything more than plain old USB. I wish hardware manufacturers would acknowledge this instead of riding the Intel hype train.

Page 87 of the UFX+ manual explains the loopback feature. In your example using MADI to feed itself, the loopback is functioning precisely how the literature describes the loopback feature should function. What it doesn't explain is that a potential feed back issue can occur from adjusting the hardware input fader and activating the channel, especially with compression. Of course this is all as clear as mud because TotalMix appears to be a mixing board due to the faders. It is so not a mixing board as you have pointed out. Cheers!

Thanks for the video, Barry. No offense but us supposed "Real Musicians" sitting around complaining about other people's music is time wasted that could be used to make our own. No new renaissance will come from us bitterly sitting around wondering why no good music is being made. Cheers!

Thank you 🙏 listen my new music on Mrfleamino artist name if you have any free time

Barry I was wondering what your opinion is on AVID’s latest videos on UA-cam. They used an AI voice generator to talk about their Human Plugins Lite, replacing a real human doing the work their products are made for. Thoughts?

Very correct thanks for speaking, thanks for your work! I believe when the con,S&troller,S took over the music industry it has pissed the whole universe! I believe you can see that that faking up the real life music is making it very hard for Americans and the populations that allow the faking up of music on earth. This targeted generation of toys is us and their flat screens, noise machines , karaoke and babbling auto tune selfies proves they are being cheated more than ever and they haven’t a clue how much they are being cheated these past 22 years in The United States 🇺🇸.
