You've got a verse and chorus you like, but the song keeps stalling at the bridge and the song stays unfinished for weeks. Three questions and a 15-minute timer will get that bridge drafted in one sitting. Save this for the song that's stuck. 🧵1/7

Apple released Logic Pro 12.4 on Tuesday. The one new feature lets you import someone else's key commands without wiping out your own, and the Eraser Tool stops deleting takes. Here's the update: logicstudiotraining.com/logic-pro-1…

Representative Margaret R. Scarsdale just knocked on my door. Lovely visit. In fact, she's the first person to knock on my door in my new house. She has my vote.

What sucks most about high fuel prices isn’t that everything‘s going to get more expensive, it’s that if fuel prices come down, the price of everything is going to remain high. It’ll become the new normal. Fucking hell.

this is the kind of design costume designers make to tell you who are the bad guys in a space movie

Et tu, Apple? What does it say about tech companies that they'll participate in geopolitical slapfests and become shitposting trolls for a mad king? If they'll participate in something this petty, where will they draw the line?

Just finished it. "Unsettling" is tame. If you've got kids, read it. If you don't have kids, party like the end times are nigh, because they are.

Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway sing the perfect breakup song. ❤️‍🩹 Their warmth for each other is an act. It's the painful performance of ex-lovers. A smile on top of regret. It sounds like a love song, but their dialogue is devastating.

The opposite of bed-wetting is falling asleep while you pee. The irony is that it has nothing to do with a bed.

I lived in PA in the 80s, and my parents arranged a trip to NYC so I could buy The Real Book. I appreciate that life-changing gift now more than ever.

You've tried dozens of plugins, but the mix still doesn't sound any better. Three rules fix that, and they don't cost any money. Save this for your next session. 🧵1/5

Logic Pro ships with a compressor that models seven classic hardware units. You already paid for it. Before you buy another plugin, four stock ones worth an afternoon. Save this. 🧵1/7

I'm on vacation with my kids, and I have ADHD. All I want to do is sit down and relax, but I can't until I get all this work done, so I can sit down and relax.

Logic Pro stops cooperating and the session stops with it. You sat down to make music and now you're twenty minutes deep in settings menus. Four checks, about five minutes, and you don't need to know what an Audio Unit is to run them. 🧵1/7

A song idea you can't find is a song idea you don't have. The melody is on your phone right now, saved as Untitled 47. You liked it. Digging it out would take twenty minutes, so you don't dig, and you write something else instead. Two inboxes and a habit fix this. Save it. 🧵1/6

Took my kids out for sushi tonight, and we had such a nice time. When we were close to finishing, a man walked past our table, smiled at me, and said, "You're a lucky man." I said, "Thank you. I appreciate you saying that." It's true. I am a lucky man.

Logic Pro 12.3 just dropped, and you don't need to be an advanced producer to enjoy it. A few tools got better, and one annoying bug finally died. Here's the plain-English tour. Save it. 🧵1/7
