I am an old Punk drummer , but today I mostly play jazz drums. I use my Millennium MPS1000 ((MiDi mesh) not Roland but good enough). But I also use my synth pads and keys to program the drums... (logic stock sets and then quantify kick, snare and let toms hihat an cymbals swing ;-) (I do have Toontrack and their EZdrummer and SuperiorDrummer). Logic session drummer is a alternative (if U can run latest logic), but I found an affordable option in Groove Monkey (10$ package) Midi samples (depending on your taste of groove ((everything is not Great) but test their freebies and get an opinion) B.R P-G P.S Like Your style D.S

In yesterdays news it was stated that 18 off Spotify viral50 Sweden list, was AI tunes and that two off the artist did not exist on/in the physical plane. Think that the train already left the station. I don't like it, I don't want it. The Swedish STIM (Swedish Composers International Music bureau) has created a new AI license. "The AI ​​license means that songwriters and artists receive a guaranteed remuneration when AI engines train on their works to learn how to make music. Using a new attribution technique, the “inspiration” for the AI ​​works becomes traceable. The remuneration is then paid both for the training itself and then as a share of the income from the AI-generated work."

@Lisa Carton Who's Creativity ? I think is the question. As a final remark, AI tunes will have their days of glory, but finally all the people will come to hear me sing slightly out of key, and miss the beat somewhat ;-)

I tried to use a 55" 4k but it was too much in my face. No problem with the resolution but it felt like I had to move my head to read a sentence (another side of the proximity effect;-)). I ended up with 1 x 32"(main window), 1x27"(track, piano-roll and plugins)and a 24" touch screen ( mixer window). When recording in my booth, I use my 12" Ipad and logic remote.

I usually start with Fab Filters but if that doesn't make me happy, I go for Melodyne.
