1. The video I'm currently working on covers the pretty large subject of dance music (EDM, electronic music, etc). As part of this, I'm roving around a lot to soak up experiences outside my comfort zone of London, Brussels, Paris & Berlin.

Although Audacity was always going to have ASIO support (via a more complex route), this move from Steinberg has just made it a lot simpler. It's a great thing to see.

For anyone in London not busy tomorrow, my favourite dance music promotion, PM:AM, is on. Quite unique melodic, progressive techno.
The community is the best part about it tho. Incredibly friendly, so if going solo, you'll be welcomed!

Fun times. It's going to be a busy week 🙂
For those wondering, this is exactly the reason I wanted to soft-launch the branding: to give me time to deliver the feedback to the creators. Beyond that, I'm incredibly pleased by the reaction to my own team's work.

If you can get past the terrible logo, Audacity 4 looks pretty great
Over 25 years Audacity has gone from simple audio editor, to a UX nightmare. If you can get past the terrible logo, version 4 looks like it might fix that.

Now that we're about 2/3rds way through development, I thought it would be a good time. A nice way to get feedback on ideas early. Runtime - around 50mins.

MuseScore Studio 4.6. Here's a little preview of a new system we've added that lets you manually hide staves.
So glad we've finally got this change in. MSS was unfinished without it. Now, our focus will be on major big things for 5.0.
