The most frustrating thing about being a working DJ (and I'm not *really* a working DJ, but close enough) is the software. Every one of the major is somewhere between pretty bad and awful. Serato is a pretty big company, and they have one real flagship app, and even they can't seem to do much beyond adding more and more controller support every year. software makes Electron apps feel platform-native by comparison.

I can’t help but think this is a mistake. One of this platform’s strengths was that they were focused on Apple devices, and so could build a solid and reliable product more quickly. Trying to keep a Windows version going in parallel is just going to sink them to the level of mediocrity that Serrato has enjoyed for years. digitaldjtips.com/djay-pro-ai-

Imagine how awesome would be if they used more than one core of my 12-core Apple Silicon CPU... and didn't run under Intel emulation. Shocker that they just sold their company.

Oh in case you don't care about DVS software and aren't into deejay, or Macs or Apple Silicon.

Even (which is a relatively popular commercial DVS app) which claims it supports Apple Silicon "natively" still requires Rosetta 2 to be installed on Apple Silicon Macs.

In other words: I trust their code & claims as much as I can read their source code.

Which is to say: not at all.

I have been playing around with 3 a lot lately, and the ability to use to isolate vocals, bassline, melodies, and drums - absolute gamechanger.

It is not perfect, but it is pretty amazing.

I get excited when I think what this could mean for creatives.

I guess my would go something like this:

I started making professionally in 2006, working for a small independent studio. None of us were especially talented, but we survived the recession by making anything for anyone who would give us money. Worked a lot of crunch without overtime pay, and eventually had my first burnout and suicide attempt. Was diagnosed with and then things repeated like this for a while.

I took a break from games for a couple of years to do work for the web side of Veterans Affairs. Did that until the pandemic started up. Went back to games again because I thought I would do better if I was working from home anyway. I lasted a couple of years.

So I'm currently back in my little timeout corner, for however long I can afford to be. I'm fortunate that I can even step away from work. I know there are lots of people who don't even have that as an option.

When I have the energy, I like to make music. Mostly for my own amusement. I use a (sorry DAWless folks, I know how uncool I am) and a couple of controllers. I also have a tiny digital DJ controller that I like to use (now that supports stems).

A friend whose artist name is ROHO 👉 (notroho.bandcamp.com) made this quirky beat for fun using my samples 🔥

Check out his own music as well, he’s so good!

I've been playing around with stems a bit last night. the acapella results are much more impressive than the instrumental ones, which take on a kind of low-bit-rate mp3 quality no matter how hq the original file is. it could be a pretty neat sampling tool, though, especially if you hid some of the digital processing noise under effects

really excited about the possibilities in stems—I think it might be neat to do a "yachstrumentals" mix depending on how the results sound (and how well my aging MacBook Pro can keep up with the AI requirements)
