Ahh Im so glad! That's exactly the realisation I had with my MODEL1... Its a bit of low time preference kit you'll never need to replace! Can't wait to hear it on one of your tracks!

I think it's inevitable that tools that serve users will outcompete those that don't. And the algorithmic spell will be broken! Hopefully... 🪄

AI makes it easier for the algorithms to permiate beyond the web browser too. Algorithms will become more pervasive than ever and harder to recognise. Maybe with bitcoin and nostr the incentives can be reversed so builders are building interfaces to enhance human intention rather than reverse engineering and manipulating it to serve the highest bidder

analog just cos. my whole ... obsession is to create music that is beyond you know... digital quantisation etc. I'm convinced there are emotional responses that are lost in 44,100khz
but i am probably insane
anyway. aside from that – its an investment, like the model1 is like having 6 sherman filterbanks.

there's a model1.4 which is 4 stereo channels instead of 6... or i'd be going with the OTO mixer – can't even remember what it's called, but I don't think that mix of analog filters and a mixer can be overstated and ... there aint many small form factor mixers that do that that I can find...

@nprofile…e2r5 this 👆will use nostr for auth, and then from there will build in native zap.stream streaming and then who knows. Forums, anything but once you have users and its all built on top of nostr, it removes the friction to publishing content versus existing content creation, so not only is it on nostr, creators will share more than they would otherwise. Something ive been thinking a lot about lately!

Well its curated.
Like. This started as just a toy for myself to make music with. And has evolved obviously 😂
But the fundemental basis remains that its curating and its just removing the technical barriers between inspiration and the end result
If your ideas are shit it will still sound shit, just technically perfect shit 😂

2025-03-28 16:21:43 CET

- reply

Yeah totally. I have the push 3 which similarly has a different mode of input - mpe grid....
So it already (as i think i told you) ingests manuals and understands every technical aspect of gear as soon as you plug it in. So it will cope with those devices. What happens as a result is anyones guess! 😂

Also another consideration from a production perspective
It was troubling me how youd initiate the process, so.... If you just start playing something its going to understand what youre doing and just start jamming with you
So what is it? Is it a daw? Nooooo fukn idea

2025-03-28 16:01:53 CET

This is the question and why i have built it to be so adaptive at every point
Its also had me wondering whats more important the process of making something or its emotional impact
What i am wondering i think is the opposite
I think the emotional feel is going to be the easy bit. The resolution of music is quite low in a programattic sense. Midi is still used and was invented in the 70's...
Ableton is incredibly ridgid if you think about it properly. Human emotion codified in clips on a screen.
That was the moment i realised i wasnt building an integration in to a daw. Its too limiting
Lets not get ahead of ourselves though. Im currently running extensive testing that the human prompts generate coherent midi output. Its all working which is the astonishing thing but I havent used it yet.

2025-03-28 15:53:55 CET

- reply

Exactly. And it learns dont forget. So its not starting without knowing how to achieve the objective of the business owner in the first place
I actually think it changes everything about music
Why would you listen to a recording of a Jupiter 8 when you could listen to the real thing jamming over the most incredible PA possible
And then at home
Why put on Spotify at a dinner party?
It changes everything to me

2025-03-28 15:45:38 CET

Ah well. Prompts are just an interface layer. It responds to different kinds of prompts. How busy the room is. Whether people are moving or not. Whether there are more people or less people than before
Human behaviour becomes the prompt really

thanks! i am going to build nostr log in after a few weeks of training it myself and will send to you. it doesn't show midi. it learns and responds to midi, cc data, and text input obviously. it can export to ALS. but what started as a small idea gradually led me to realise that this is a complete paradigm shift in music creation. so its basically a different kind of daw.

exactly, but then domain specific LLM's that handle domain specific problems will own those domains. Private jets as an example, there are very domain specific flows...
- user requests quote
- agent needs to determine aircraft positioning to determine where to efficiently request quotes from
- email operators (human operators) wait for response
etc.
it's an exciting epiphany honestly. there is so much up for grabs.
what we know as websites today are little more than slightly interactive brochures. VERY soon it will just be agents. And the most efficient agents in any specific domain will win.
Cool!

2025-03-27 11:38:00 CET

are websites just bad agents? like. going on a website to make a booking at a restaurant via a booking platform is just a primitive agent. will websites start to just be ai agents? I am considering rebuilding my private jet company website as just a travel agent that handles every aspect of the booking all the way through to payment. seems like a better ux to me...

no the current (mvp i guess) UI is web based... but the backend is a separate server so any interface could connect to it – plugins for example, a macos app... but at the moment its using webmidi... so in your browser. it automatically detect what hardware is plugged in.... it has already ingested their manuals and understands all their cc mappings and nuances... and away it goes

2025-03-26 16:02:14 CET

- reply

yeah kinda but it also needs to be very erm.... domain specific – music. so it uses OpenAI apis but then it has all these engines to enrich that data so it has guardrails I guess from hallucinations etc. from just a straight up LLM. but top level - yeah its chatgpt as a studio assistant. But it would be primarily a voice interface... so you just literally talk to it

2025-03-26 16:00:17 CET

and so... i've kind of validated the – can text based input control midi devices in a musical way bit.... it's already playing chord progressions and stuff on my prophet.... It can!

2025-03-26 15:57:44 CET

- reply

it's a long story 😂
i basically had an insane epiphany
i have a theory of an ai hardware device composer that enriches itself with all available knowledge on music. it has its own very deep music system – like music psychology, music theory, rythm, sythesis etc.
but then its completely adaptive to human input and cc messages on said hardware devices.
im basically building a system that you can talk to - you walk in to the studio and say give me something synthwavey and kind of like moderat. and it starts playing. and you go 'nah thats too dark. make it a bit more fun in an 80's way'... and away it goes.
And then... when you start playing with the devices themselves... it learns. and it uses cc and midi input as further instruction.
Insane right?
