Saw this cool vintage video on LinkedIn posted by the founder of Spanx about the importance of quitting your job in your 20s to pursue your dream. I found on her Instagram however that she spent 7 years in that job learning a lot of important stuff. So yeah, quit, but first, learn!

Frontier AI Models Are Doing Something Absolutely Bizarre When Asked to Diagnose Medical X-Rays

Anyone using the Digitone, Digitakt, or other similar Elektron boxes know if there is a basic peak meter somewhere in the UI?
Or is that a kind of thing that makes no sense to use on a synth and instead only on a recording target or destination elsewhere? I'm trying to figure something out in the context of the compressor, in terms of a reference point to adjust each track.

How do people use these Elektron compressors without a peak meter? Isn’t that necessary?

Trying to learn how to use the Digitone compressor and found this really useful video. Have to say compression has to be one of the trickiest things to learn with synths.

Tried to see what it’s like to do something experimental on a Digitone and it’s about as easy to use as an analog modular, I think. Took me about half hour to figure out how to record audio straight into an iPhone camera and had to use the Blackmagic camera app (amazing btw) and a Zoom U24. Used 3 tracks with “probability” triggers and 1 S&H LFO. Just 16 steps, looping. Of course not as powerful as a modular but so convenient and compact.

This one video is really wild, especially the parts about Gamelan and Thai classical music, but also Western piano tuning. And I think it all boils down to the fact that scales and modes are all relative to the sounds that you're composing with and there's no single “right” way to make music.

Been trying to find the earliest mention/hype of the 808 for bass in a rap song and this is the earliest I think: 1986 T La Rock/Mantronik “Bass Machine”
