Oh cool, not to further derail this thread but the music direction is interesting. I've also just gotten (back) into music production using an MPC One+ and I used https://www.audiblegenius.com/ for music theory+ear training. A frequent theme I've noticed in Youtube tutorials is a ton of >35 software engineers mentioning they are getting into music and feeling the need to say how old they are, as I guess the meme is learning music is for naive 20yr olds.

For me it was COVID that drove me back to music, I had a ton of time on my hands and we'd just bought an old (and really crappy) piano so I decided to get more serious about it. Long way to go though before I'll be satisfied with it, and I doubt I ever will be. Not giving up, it is just too much fun.

Thank you for that link!

So, you're officially an influencer now, I bought the course. Very high quality material, a ton of work must have gone into that. I hope to get my own stuff up to that level of polish, it certainly sets an example.
