MONDAY MUSIC - Music, Musings and More - September 23, 2024 - Live Jam, Wavea Flite, and More!

It's Monday, and time for another Live Stream from the Disaster Room.

But wait, there's more! Here we go again with another "workstation" VST. During last week's stream ‪@krazywabbit‬ brought up Flite by Wavea. This one also has some interesting features, so it's worth a look, too.

Also on the show this week, some final thoughts on Babylon 2, Lunacy Audio offers a new update/plugin for Beam, there's a sale on the Microkorg Crystal, but the Microkorg 2 is starting to pop up in online stores.

I got the PTZ camera working again. I had managed to hit the "Freeze" button, so it was showing me the last frame of video prior to bumping that button. Oddly, hitting the button again did not want to release freeze, and a power cycle of the camera does not reset the freeze mode. After a couple of attempts, I finally got it to release.

Here's the rough timeline:
