      Yes I did Herb. I caught about half of it after seeing your thread. I had watched
    what may have been the the first or other part1 "a different show" and I wasn't
    very impressed with that one. On "this one" though there were more good
    "foods for thought". I saw where you were in the chat and you focused
    on subject matters however some of the others seemed to be unfocused
    and vague.

      At the end where he answered questions those questions seemed to be so
    "out there" and a bit unrelated in a since that I would think "how can he answer
    questions when the questions are unclear or not specific enough?

      Also ustream seems to require a person to get their "setup" in order
    IE get things working and not have those moments of "something isn't working"
    such as a voice over a screen shot. Maybe that just takes time to get
    in good working order. (that was more on the first show though)

      I thought he had some very good points about the things that he was speaking
    of.

    I use FF, and the show runs fairly smooth on it... there are freezes in the stream from time to time. I think that comes from their end.

    Some of the archived shows are good....and some are...well... not so good.  It also depends on the guest and the subject matter. Some of the "writing songs theory and reality" broadcasts would be really boring to someone into mixing ...for example.

    This show was one of several in a series on mixing and engineering that I thought some cakers might enjoy. Michael was a recording engineer in a previous career, before he started TAXI. Seems that he has worked on some pretty famous name's albums, back in the day.

    He starts into a topic and the things he knows just naturally leads him into some interesting and in depth monologues on those topics.

    At the end, he realized there was so much more to cover, and he was already past the normal closing point. I agree, the questions were a bit unrelated. He normally asks for questions earlier in the show, and Craig (the guy off screen) monitors the chat to pick the good questions out. I think he was blindsided by ML at the end and didn't have any relevant ones picked out.

    Especially the question about what software is best as relates to DAW's.  Huhhhhh? That's an opinion question......

    He'll be back again in a few weeks with  the next part in the series.


    ANYONE interested in hearing these live chats...chat with others on line, listen to the host & guest (if any) all you need to do is visit the TAXI website and sign up for email notification. They email a link...or visit the link above in the OP and bookmark it.... and check out the archives of older shows.  The majority of the shows are aimed at songwriting and songwriters as opposed to the technical aspect.

    Anyway... though some of you might enjoy it.
