sb arms & legs<p>The other day at work we had a show in who brought along their own very capable sound technician. As I was getting him all set up to run their show in our venue, I showed him how to do some esoteric routing in our <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/digico" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>digico</span></a> console that solved a problem for him. </p><p>A little later, I noticed he was running <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/ReaperDAW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReaperDAW</span></a> for recording the show. He started about tediously adding a track, then clicking through a series of menus to assign the routing, rinse &amp; repeat 40some times. </p><p>I said "oh, you're a Reaper fella too, eh?"</p><p>"Yeah, it's great and all... but I don't suppose you have any tricks to make this go faster?"</p><p>Boy did I.</p><p>I showed him how to add all his tracks at once. <br>How to arm them all at once. <br>How to use the Routing Matrix to VERY quickly assign channel routing. <br>How to quickly name all the tracks. </p><p>At the end of 2 minutes, he had his reaper file ready to rock and told me "they should double your salary". </p><p>While he's not wrong, it got me thinking about other industry pros who protect all their knowledge like gold charms hanging from their belt. I've encountered them, too. </p><p>I DID NOT spend decades suffering, bleeding, failing, learning, succeeding, writing my own rules, etc just to have ALL THAT CRAZY COOL SHIT die with me. </p><p>Information is for *everyone* and I personally will trip over myself with excitement for any opportunity to pass it along. </p><p><a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/theatre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>theatre</span></a> <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/liveSound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liveSound</span></a> <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/jobSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jobSecurity</span></a> <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/fragileEgo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fragileEgo</span></a> <a href="https://metroholografix.ca/tags/shareYourExpertise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>shareYourExpertise</span></a></p>
Olaf<p>Why I am interested and look into <a href="https://bern.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> stuff even though currently it appears to be only customer service bots to replace those cost centers? I know where this is heading. I tell network computers (routers) what to do under what circumstances for a living - another computer is obviously far more capable than I could do that hence I look into telling computers how to tell other computers what I want as an outcome and have them figure it out themselves. <a href="https://bern.social/tags/JobSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JobSecurity</span></a> <a href="https://bern.social/tags/network" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>network</span></a> <a href="https://bern.social/tags/networkengineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>networkengineering</span></a></p>

Brian Jopek<p>Of the gazillion coffee mugs I own, this one is definitely a favorite, especially when people around here just can’t keep the dumbfuckery in check and it keeps me busy. Some days, it seems I’m writing three news stories at one time. The bosses love it when I go up front to speak to someone carrying this bad boy. I’m kidding - they don’t but what are they gonna do? Send me back to Iraq? <br><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DumbFuckery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DumbFuckery</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/JobSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JobSecurity</span></a></p>
