For this special offer, visit www.gotomeeting.com/podcast. Has it really been a month since our last episode? Yes it has! We have a longer episode to make up for it, featuring Dave Chick on film composing, Derek on electronic drums, and Paul on Propellerhead Reason 4. Plus we pine for a new episode of the Project Studio Network, talk about cruises and videos, and rant about cable standards. If you can play Enhanced podcasts (AAC enhanced) on your iPod, PlayStation Portable, Apple TV, Xbox 360, TiVo, or Zune, or in iTunes or QuickTime, you'll find lots of photos and links accompanying this episode. 00:00 Intros. We enjoy Vancouver's crazy spring rain followed by a sunny Victoria Day weekend heat wave, and reveal that Paul's turning into Mr. Ocean Cruise. 03:45 Thanks again to our sponsors at Source Elements, GoToMeeting, the Home Recording Network and Blubrry Network, and macProVideo.com, and our affiliate programs at zZounds, Amazon, and NCIX. And thank you for supporting us too! Derek bought a cool Thermaltake USB/SATA docking station via NCIX. 08:45 Paul is releasing a new Reason 4 video course (to follow up his previous Reason 3 courses) via macProVideo.com, likely in June. We reviewed Reason 3 way back on IHR #11 in March 2006. And yes, we'll have more IHR TV video podcast episodes soon -- we just needed to get some more gear (including the Audio-Technica PRO 70 lavalier mic) and improve our workflow with our Panasonic HD videocams, Zoom H4 recorders, and Final Cut Express. Stay subscribed to IHR TV for new episodes coming soon. 14:10 Speaking of delays, where is the Project Studio Network? Derek's wife's podcast Lip Gloss and Laptops reached 100 episodes recently -- but are the PSN guys scared of getting to the century mark? 17:00 SPONSOR: GoToMeeting.com. 17:45 IHR 101: Introduction to Film Scoring with Dave Chick. (He actually does this for a living!) There are thousands of working and aspiring composers out there, so it's really a business built on relationships. He outlines composing, orchestration and arrangement, sound engineering and production, computer skills, syncing DAWs with video, Internet communications and file transfer, negotiation and sales and business skills, and maintaining good relationships. This could turn into a big series... 25:14 GEAR REVIEW: Derek drinks a Caffe Artigiano coffee near the Vancouver waterfront and reviews Yamaha's DTXPress digital drums and similar electronic kits from Roland, Alesis, and others. While electronic and MIDI drums have improved in the past 20 years since the days of Howard Jones, they're not quite ready to replace acoustic drums yet -- and they'd look silly in Derek's '60s cover band anyway. 34:00 GEAR REVIEW: Paul takes on the massive new Reason 4 sequencer, DAW, and instrument package from Propellerhead Software. Check out IHR's Reason 3 review from two years ago too, and Paul's Reason tutorials at macProVideo.com (you can save 15% with our code ihrtv15). Reason has synths, samplers, loops, drum machines, mastering tools, mixers, a vocoder, effects, sequencing, and automation, but it does not record external audio natively (you can do that with ReWire, as explained on the first two episodes of IHR TV). 42:40 EDITORIAL: Another Derek rant, this time about cables, patents, and monopolies. Derek's frustration is prompted by his persistently problematic MacBook laptop and its MagSafe power connector. Unfortunately, because of Apple's patent on the design, no one else makes MagSafe-compatible power cords. Imagine if you could only buy XLR or RCA or phono cables from one maufacturer. That would suck. And while Apple lets pretty much anyone make stuff work with the iPod dock connector, they can also arbitrarily change how iPod connections work, making old accessories obsolete. 49:50 Check out the Home Made Hit Show video episodes with Tony Butterworth and Dave Criddle, especially the music,,recording,,studio,,home,recording,,project,studio,,sound,engineering,,digital,audio Paul Garay and Derek K.

Please subscribe, because it's a separate video-only podcast feed. 05:14 SPONSOR: GoToMeeting.com 06:15 IHR 101 (Dave): Choosing an audio interface for your PC. Dave has a new Apex tube mic, which he says is "velvety smooth." He discusses the various technologies and options, and what to consider and look out for. 19:05 EAR TRAINING (Paul): Intervals. Vertical/harmonic vs. linear/melodic. Minor second/semitone ("F#252;r Elise," "The Pink Panther"), major second/tone ("Mary Had a Little Lamb," "Pop Goes the Weasel"), minor third ("O Canada," "Hey Jude"), major third ("Rocky," "When the Saints Go Marching In"), perfect fourth ("Amazing Grace," "Wedding March," "O Tannenbaum"), augmented fourth ("The Simpsons"), perfect fifth ("Superman," "Do You Hear What I Hear?"). 28:12 COMMENTARY (Derek): Enjoying music. (Background music is "Three Preludes, Opus 104a: Prelude in B Minor" by Felix Mendelssohn, "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin, and Derek's in-progress demo, called "Six Eight" for now.) Check out Arthur Rubinstein, Oscar Peterson, Glenn Gould, Dread Zeppelin, Celso Machado, and The Neurotics. 34:17 EDITORIAL: What are unusual music controllers and instruments -- such as Yamaha's Tenori-On (discussed at Sonic State and Music Thing), C-Thru's AXIS-64 (see YouTube), Roland's Octapad, MIDI drums for triggering piano sounds -- useful for? How can you change your musical approach by trying instruments you aren't used to? But please, no more Super Mario theme or Stairway, okay? 41:28 We recorded this podcast before the Vancouver Sun Run on April 20, but posted it afterwards.

Just visit GoToMeeting.com/podcast. 10:28 GEAR REVIEW (Paul): Kontakt 3 from Native Instruments, including its simplified installation, massive sample libraries (33 GB!), Performance View, sample changes since Kontakt 2 (lots of new samples, but some older samples are no longer included), performance, new interface, file browser, wave editor, custom envelopes, destructive sample editor, effects, and sample imports. Here is NI's list of compatible sample formats and changes since Kontakt 2. Purchase Kontakt from zZounds in the U.S. and IHR gets a small cut. Thanks! 24:01 GUEST INTERVIEW/REVIEW: Derek talks to Mark Blevis of Ottawa about various flash recorders, focusing on the Zoom H2. (Mark recorded his side of the conversation using an Electro-Voice RE-20 mic and Cubase, Derek with his MXL770 mic into the H2 itself.) Mark also uses the Edirol R1 (now sadly discontinued), while Derek has a Zoom H4 for comparison. They also discuss the M-Audio MicroTrack, Edirol R09, and new recorders from Sony and Marantz. Zoom originally planned to use a mid-side three-capsule mic design on the H2 (described well by Hens Zimmerman on his podcast), but ended up with a four-capsule dual-cardoid design. See Derek's H2 photos. Purchase an H2 or other recorder from zZounds in the U.S. and IHR gets a small cut. Thanks! 35:29 EDITORIAL: The long-running saga of Paul's M-Audio Ozonic keyboard/FireWire interface continues, but this time the problem was with his Power Mac G5's front FireWire port instead of the Ozonic. 43:00 Plans for IHR #50 next show, and don't forget the remix contest. 44:04 END Thanks again to GoToMeeting.com (online meetings made easy with GoToMeeting: try it free for 45 days); M-Audio (thanks for the use of Pro Tools M-Powered); and Source Elements (thanks for the use of Source-Connect).

See his photos and screenshots at Flickr, and download his resulting drum tracks from 102, right here at the IHR website.

Shownotes 00:00 Intros 02:00 CORRECTIONS: Andrew Brierley notes that the Zoom G2.1u effects pedal is actually die-cast metal with a plastic covering, not just plastic. And Mark from Samson let us know that the G-Track USB microphone can record either 44.1 or 48 kHz -- just change the sample rate in your DAW or computer audio settings. 04:00 TIP: If you're in Canada but live near the U.S. border, you can order from U.S.-only online stores if you set up a P.O. box or mailing center just across the border in the U.S.A. -- you'll still need to pay duty and taxes when you return, but deals are pretty good for Canadians with the current exchange rate. 05:19 TIP: Mike at Switching to Mac demonstrates a way to pay for .Mac subscriptions in different currencies by changing your mailing address in your .Mac account settings. 06:12 Paul and Derek will appear on "The Lab With Leo" again soon -- we're taping two new appearances in the first week of October, showing hybrid audio devices and Logic Studio 8. 07:30 SPONSOR: Try GoToMeeting online meeting software free for 45 days.

This update is more focused on music than on podcasting, which was the highlight of version 3. He discusses Magic GarageBand, automation improvements, Visual EQ, arrangement sections, the Delete and Move command, 24-bit recording, automation locking, direct MP3 exporting, export normalization, and other new features, as well as a few bugs and design problems. 26:38 PROMO: Sounds Good podcast, part of the Home Recording Network. 26:53 GEAR REVIEW: SampleTank 2.5 review by guest reviewer Hens Zimmerman. 32:54 EDITORIAL: Apple's aggressive pricing and bundling of Logic Studio 8, plus the new and improved interface, has created a lot of buzz in our IHR forums and among DAW users across the Internet.
