In a very unusual Tidbit episode of Programming By Stealth, Allison interviews NosillaCastaway and Programming By Stealth student Steve Mattan about how he's running Large Language Models locally on his Mac. He pulls this off using a series of open source tools, starting with Ollama for the models from the command line, and then Enchanted to give him a nice GUI. He explains how he's integrated the local LLM into VSCode for his coding, and how he uses Keyboard Maestro to launch all of this at once. You can find the outline and links to how Steve's doing this at pbs.bartificer.net.

The Savvy Producer | Productivity and Efficiency in Music Production
If you're like most engineers, you probably can't stand the tedious, non-creative tasks like mix prep, editing and file organisation. They sap your creative energy and waste time that could have been spent actually producing or mixing! But what if you never had to do them again? Automating them with something like Keyboard Maestro could be the answer. In this episode I talk about: - How macros can allow more time for creativity - Why automating non-creative tasks increases your hourly pay - My plan for implementing more macros into my workflow over the next few weeks Freebie - How busy music producers can crush their schedule and keep their clients happier, without stress or overwhelm - marsdenmastering.com/trello Marsden Mastering - https://marsdenmastering.com/

In [[Ep 126 - April 12 - Note automation with RocketBook and Devonthink]] I talked about the workflow I setup using my RocketBooks, Keyboard Maestro and DevonThink. I mentioned that I have a Remarkable 2 that I just didn't find a good workflow for. I do not like archiving and keeping my notes on the remarable it self. The goal is to be able to digitize all notes into the same system. My Rocketbook flow is essentially: 1. Write in RocketBook 2. Take Photo with app - tag and upload to dropbox 3. Keyboard Mastro macro will tag files with clarifying tag 4. I manually process the notes and tag it with the right project or theme tag. 5. Another Macro moves the file into DevonThink 6. An automation (smart rule) is triggered on the import and will based on the tags move the file to the correct place. 7. Clean the RocketBooks... My problem was that I could export one or a subselection of pages from my Remarkable2 - it was the whole notebook (if I used the dropbox integration). Then I found email-to-dropbox. An experimental feature that gives you a privat email where you can send files and the will be stored to a specific location on the dropbox. There maybe multiple ways of doing this but this was the easiest way for me. The Remarkable 2 flow now looks like this: 1. Write in Remarkable 2. Send the page to dropbox 3. Keyboard Maestro will pick up the file in dropbox and inject the file into the right place in the Rocketbook flow. The upside here is 1. It is faster to email the note than to use the app and take a photo 2. With Remarkable I don't have to clean any pages 3. Can use both appraches side-by-side The next step is to find a scanner app that can scan notes from any notebook (or whiteboard) and inject that into my flow. This is comming together nicely!
I produce a lot of notes many of them are handwritten this since it is fast and easy to do it is slow and my thinking can keep upThere are multiple problems with handwritten notes They have a tendency to be in the notebook at home when you are not thereThey easily get out of order and can't be sortedThey cant be searched when you need to find something specificI have tried to use digital notes - e.g. writing in an app that I then can store in a repository or a file vault. It works for a few days and then I find my self with a pen in hand again. Inconsistency being a huge problem. As the tech geek I am - I bought the Remarkable2 - an e-ink device that you can write on. A special surface giving you a paper like feeling. I have a few problems with it.The paper feeling is not really paper feeling. It is black and white onlyIt doesn't integrate well enough with other applications and notes get stuck in the device. The battery have a tendency to be out when you need to write. Not compatible with my fountainpens and my favourite green ink from pilot. I have tried a lot of tools and lately I have gotten a workflow with RocketBooks and DevonThing to work well. RocketBook is the old - half-tech - notebook that you write on with normal pilot friXion pens. You then take a photo of the page and you can upload an OCR:ed pdf to a location of your choice. Then you can wipe the page clean with a moist cloth and reuse the page again. In my workflow the pdf lands in an inbox in dropbox. Here I can tag them with special topic tags and when a specific "clarified" tags are added - keyboard maestro picks the file up and drops it into DevonThink. Keyboard Maestro is a tool I bought for it's multiple clipboards but has become one of my automation tools of choice. DevonThink is a document database where you can search and organise reference documentation. Did I say that I have programmed buttons on my Stream Deck to tag and untag files? I did. This means I can quickly process and work through my inbox and move things into DevonThink with quick buttons on my Stream Deck. Once the files hit's DevonThink there are rules created to take files tagged in a specific file and move them to the correct space in the document hierarchy. I finally found a workflow that brings my handwritten notes into a searchable format in my computer to be portable and come with me where ever I am. And I am super happy with it. There are however improvements to it. Right now I'm tied down to rocket books. I would like to expand this to be more general. To work with my remarkable and other non RocketBook notebooks. I have been doing some experimentation and I hope I will be able to update you with additions to this workflow in a bit. I hope you...
This week's guest on Chit Chat Across the Pond is the Wizard Alec Johnson. Alec is the host of the YouTube channel Take One Tech. He creates amazing how-to guides on tools such as Stream Deck, Hazel, Keyboard Maestro, Ecamm Live, and many basic features of the Mac operating systems. When I found his video tutorials, I started devouring them I was learning so much. I asked Alec if he'd come on the show to talk about _how_ he creates these amazing tutorials because they're unique in the style and quality of the content. We talk about the gear he uses, and more importantly his software setup that allows him to create 30-minute video tutorials in _one take_. Even after learning how he automates with Keyboard Maestro and Stream Deck, I still believe he's a wizard that he can create such smooth video tutorials with relatively few mistakes, all in one take. Get this, in one take he has created 100 videos in 100 days! His next goal is 365 videos in 365 days. This is why I introduced him as the wizard Alec Johnson. Since he's a video guy, we decided to have him record the interview for his YouTube channel as well, so if you'd rather watch instead of listen you can do that. There are a few times in the conversation where he demonstrates a little bit of what he's describing so there is an advantage to watching the video. As always though, I made sure to keep adding color commentary to what I was watching so you won't miss anything in the audio. You can connect with Alec and find all of his content at takeonetech.io
Back in Ep 74 – April 19 – Working with emails I talked about an email application called MailMate. It is a small stand alone emailing application that I have been using for the last 2 and something months. Yesterday the trial ended – there must be something wrong with that counter since 18 of April to 28 of June is way more than 30 days. But I don't complain. Before I decide which app to use I wanted to try out some other ones as well. One of these are AirMail and that is what I will talk about today. AirMail is a small Mac OS, iPad OS and iOS mail client. You can use it for free on iOS and iPad OS but to also use it on the desktop you need to subscribe. You get 3 days trial if you jump on a monthly plan. I did and my plan is now to run the application for two months as a trial. As I have been talking about in the past, I have a lot of email accounts. I may not be getting so much email on them – but it is a pain to check them all. I usually do that with different browsers and different browser profile in Brave to keep the sessions (especially for Office 365) separated. I prefer to not be working with emails in the browser since I find my self to easily distracted. I will be running the application on both MacOS and iOS – and the experience seems to be quite similar. Here are some things I find quite interesting with the applications:Multiple AccountsAs many stand alone applications it is possible to add multiple accounts. I have added Google and standard IMAP accounts so far. It is left to also add a couple of O365 accounts (if allowed) so that I can a full email overview. There is a few things here that I really liked. It will store the email account settings and sync them over iCloud. That means that it is super fast to setup the accounts on both my laptop and in my iPhone – the only thing I need to do is to authenticated since the password (or token) is not stored on iCloud. It is possible to give each account a color. When you look in the combined Inbox it is super easy to see what email belongs to what account. A small but nice feature.Smart MailboxesJust as with MailMate it is possible to setup smart mailboxes. And I use that to get an overview of what I have stored in my “Action Support” and “Waiting For Support” folders to quickly get an understanding of what I need to do or what I am waiting for. I talk a bit more in detail about this in Ep 74.Nice looking UIThis is maybe not the most important feature for an application but it never hurts. It is a beautiful application. On both systems. The normal user interface is quite bare with only a few buttons and functions available. But it is highly configurable. This makes it really powerful. The down side is that the configuration pane is huge. So much settings.TemplatesMaybe not something I will use a lot on the Mac since I use Keyboard Maestro to do text expansion. But on iOS I probably will be using it more. Just as you would expect, you can create text templates that you insert into your emails. Save time and brain power to fix standard type of emails.EditingYou have a range of choices to edit your emails. Both a HTML/WYSIWYG editor that seems nice and simple to use. But, if you want to, you can also create your emails with Markdown. This was one of the feature I really liked with MailMate – but I also realised most of my emails are quite simple and plain text will do fine. For me this isn't a killer feature anymore.SharingYou can interact with a lot of applications from AirMail. The ones I will do to start off with is OmniFocus, DevonThink, Drafts and Bear. Probably in that order when it comes to how much as well. But there are many more application that it is possible to work with. The opportunities here are huge compared to MailMate. This works on both platforms. This is still something I haven't used too much yet so it will be great to understand how well it works in reality. One thing that is super interesting is to see if it manage to get “Deep-linking” between OmniFocus and AirMail – e.g. when linking a task to an email to find the references. There is so many more features in here that I need to explore. I really hope it does work as well as it looks like and that it isn't just surface. The price for a month is just shy of $3/month or $10/year. And then you get a pro for all your devices. To use it on your MacOS desktop you must have pro. On your devices it work, but is limited, for free. I will have an episode with a more in depth review sometime in august when I have gotten some mails through the system.

Do you think that getting too much business could ever be a problem? Today, I'm talking to Tim Engelbrecht, from Hello Sweetheart, a Sydney-based wedding photography and videography company. Tim runs the business with his wife, Mim, and they are really busy! Sometimes they do as many as four weddings in one day, so things can seem a little out of control, but Tim thinks it's a great problem to have. I decided to interview Tim today because I thought that it would be interesting to chat with somebody in our industry who is not necessarily a cake maker. And I love getting the perspectives of other creatives out there because I think they really have a lot in common with us, here in the baking industry. So, listen in today, to find out what Tim has to share about his life behind the lens. Hello Sweetheart was officially started in 2015 and they shot a total of twenty-five weddings that year. Then, in 2016, Tim got married and Mim took over the marketing. They did almost seventy weddings that year, and even more in the following year. From there, things have constantly been on the up-and-up for Hello Sweetheart. It has been widely featured, in places such as Modern Weddings, Polka Dot Bride, Wedding Wonderland, and more. Hello Sweetheart has a really dreamy Instagram feed too! It makes you want to jump right into other people's cool lives, and have weddings just like they have! Tune in to find out more! Show Highlights: Tim tells us about Hello Sweetheart. Having too much business is a great problem to have! Tim gives us the history of Hello Sweetheart. Tim's role is the creative side of the business and Mim is the hustler. Mim has helped the business grow exponentially. They acquired a team and tripled their business in just three years. Tim explains how they managed to grow so fast in such a short space of time. People like having only a few options to choose from. Tim explains the way they advertise on Facebook. Facebook re-targeting is super powerful. Tim talks about his business model, which is based on very limited options. Tim and Mim have chosen a high and consistent volume of work over bespoke work. Making a lifestyle choice for your business. Keeping track of trends to keep abreast with the future market. Hello Sweetheart has a really quick turnaround time for the photographs. All their work is done digitally. Marrying the creative side with the business systems side. Keyboard Maestro, the software that has changed Tim's life.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to make a podcast? What the steps are? This week, I'm going to walk you through my process, step by step. I'm going to give you a better understanding of what it takes to make a podcast, take some of the mystery and scariness out of podcasting, and give you actionable steps to follow to make your own podcast. Couple quick updates to this episode: I now use MP3 chapters instead of writing time stamps for each paragraph. My show is also now hosted on Simplecast, so my workflow has gotten a lot faster/easier. Want the cheat sheet? Here's an updated PDF of my podcast production workflow. Key Takeaways: Post-production seems to be the most difficult and time consuming part of podcasting. Fortunately, it's also the easiest to outsource. Consider hiring an editor or assistant to take care of it for you. If you don't have much free time to invest in your podcast, keep it simple. Share something valuable in 3-10 minutes. Mind mapping is a great creative exercise that helps me capture all the things I want to talk about related to my topic. Create presets and templates for your tracks and use them every week. Be ruthless about editing both before and after recording. Creating an email newsletter for every episode can be time consuming, but it's important if you want to build an list of people that you can sell to later down the road. Don't be afraid to share your older episodes on social media. Grab a takeaway from the episode and post it with a link to the episode. In this episode I'm going to walk you through my entire podcasting process, but I want to start with a question from a listener. Emily Carlton asks: How long did your entire process take when you first started, and how long does it take now? In what areas have you become more efficient to save time? When I first started, each episode was taking me around 5-10 hours (sometimes more). It feels like it takes less time now, but not by much. The time it takes to produce a podcast depends on the format and how much work you want to put into it to make it awesome. If you're ok with your episode being a little on the short side, if you don't want to super detailed or lengthy episode notes, then you could probably record and publish an episode in an hour or two. A few things that saved me a lot of time: Learning how to edit quickly in Logic Pro X, how to save plugin settings as defaults, and how to create channel strip and project templates. The Three Parts of Podcasting: Preperation, Recording, and Post-Production My podcasting process can be broken down into three parts; Preparation, Recording, and Post Production. Preparation includes things like researching what people are interested in learning about, coming up with topics, researching those topics, and writing an outline for the episode. Recording is making sure your audio gear is setup, connected and ready to go, then hitting record and doing the show (and live streaming if that's a thing you do). Post-production is editing the audio file (or files, if you have guests or co-hosts), bouncing it out to an MP3 file, tagging the file, writing show notes, uploading those things to the website for publishing, creating the email newsetter, then promoting the episode on social media. What's the Most Time Consuming Part of Podcasting? Robert Guzzo asks: Can you estimate the percentage of time & effort you devote to each: preparation, recording, post-production & publishing? I'm asking more for an estimate on which parts of the process take the most time–does prep take up the majority of the overall effort for an effort, or is post-production the biggest slice of the pie? You can either do the bulk of the work up front or later in post-production. For example, when I'm doing solo shows, I write out almost the entire show before I record it. Then I don't have as much work on the editing or the show note writing section. If I'm doing an interview, I have an basic outline but I don't know what's going to be said, so I write the show notes afterwards. It's very time consuming but that's just how it goes. As I told Robert in the chat before the show, it depends on when you want to do the work. If you do more work up front, the post-production work of writing show notes will require less time. Pre-Production There are three main parts to pre-production: Choosing a topic for the episode Mindmapping (brainstorming) Writing the outline 1. Choosing a Topic Choosing a topic involves a lot of research. When searching for topics for my show, I'm asking myself: What questions have people been asking? What do I wish I knew when I started? What haven't I taught about yet? What are the basics? What are common mistakes that people make? Daniela asks: How much writing do you do in preparation for a podcast episode? I like to write out between 800 and 3000 words for my episodes. That takes me between 20 and 45 minutes to read out loud. You don't have to do long episodes, though. Short shows can be just as valuable, and many people even prefer short podcasts. Longer shows take more time and effort, so plan accordingly. If you don't have much free time to invest in your podcast, keep it simple. Share something valuable in 3-10 minutes. 2. Mind Mapping Alex Kelerman asked: What goes into writing an outline for your podcast? Do you just use bullets for the main ideas and develop things live, or do you go in depth? I like to create the structure of my outline in a mindmapping app called Mindnode ($29). I start off with the main topic in the middle and add any sub-topics (the main points I want to discuss). Then I go one level deeper and write out my basic talking points (bullet items). You can view an example of what that looks like here. Mind mapping is a great creative exercise that helps me capture all the things I want to talk about related to my topic. I talked more about this process in episode 17: Using Great Outlines to Keep Your Listener's Attention. While I'm mind mapping, I'm also doing research online to see what other people have written about the topic, just to make sure I don't miss or forget anything. It often sparks new ideas or uncovers gold nuggets that I can then bring into the show. 3. Writing the Outline Once I'm happy with my mind map outline, I export the text into a writing app called Typed. I like Typed, but there are many great writing apps including IA Writer, Ulysses, NVAlt, and Sublime Text. Since I do all my writing in Markdown, I like these apps because they play nice with Markdown, but you could write in any text editor. So I export the text from Mindnode and put it into a new text document in Typed, then I start writing. I start with the intro; how I'm going to introduce the episode to my audience. Then I move on to filling in details related to my main points. I dedicate an hour or two (sometimes more) every week to writing, but I often spread it out into 3-4 different writing sessions. Show Time (Recording) I stream live every Monday, so I review my show notes about an hour before showtime. I'll often jump in the seanwes chatroom to see if anyone has any questions that I can answer in the show. You can do this yourself: Jump on Twitter or Slack and ask your audience if they have any thoughts or questions related to your topic. This can spark some great conversations and give you more things to talk about during your show; it also gives your audience a sense of participation. After reviewing the show notes, I start preparing for recording. I turn off any streaming services (Dropbox, Backblaze, Google Drive) that might be hogging bandwidth. I make sure all my gear is ready to go, then do a test recording to make sure everything is working as it should be. I turn notifications off and silence my iPhone, then I hit record (very important) and start the show. After I'm done recording, I hit stop and save the file (very important). Post Production There are five sections to my post-production workflow: Editing and mixing Writing show notes Bouncing, tagging and uploading the MP3 Creating the featured image for the show notes page Admin work (creating the post in WordPress, uploading the show notes, creating and sending the Mailchimp email newsletter) Post production seems to be the most difficult and time consuming part of podcasting. Fortunately, it's also the easiest to outsource. Consider hiring an editor or assistant to take care of it for you. Want to get your post-production work done faster? Check out epsiode 15: 7 Tips to Make Podcast Post Production Easier. Want to hire a podcast editor? Check out episode 8: 10 Things to Know Before Hiring a Podcast Editor. 1. Editing I open up my Logic project and I apply presets that I've made for the tracks. In most cases, I already have plugins setup and configured for vocal tracks. These presets are called Channel Strip Settings. Create presets and templates for your tracks and use them every week. I adjust EQ and compression if needed, add the intro and outro music, then edit the show. Editing includes removing umms and other filler words and cleaning up any long pauses or mistakes. I used to do an editing pass before starting to write the show notes, but lately I've been editing while writing show notes. I found that it saves me a little bit of time. Be ruthless about editing both before and after recording. 2. Writing Show Notes I open the text document that I used for my outline, and start working to turn my outline into something that looks more like a blog post. I add TimeJump links to the beginning of each paragraph so that people can go to the time in the audio player that corresponds with that section of the show notes. Update: I no longer add TimeJump links, but I'm still using Markdown. I wrote more about my new process for creating show notes here. As I'm listening and writing show notes, if I notice any additional things in the recording that need to be edited, I'll take care of it. 3. Bouncing the File After editing and show notes are done, I bounce (export) the audio to an MP3 file. I export the audio file in stereo at 128kbps. I tag the MP3 file with the proper metadata using an app called Tagr. Tagr costs $10 but it's faster than using iTunes to add the neccessary information to your MP3. I've also got a cool text shortcut that uses Keyboard Maestro to automatically fill in the information, but I'll have to do a screencast on that later. Afer tagging, the MP3 file is ready for uploading to my hosting service (Simplecast). 4. Creating the Featured Image I create a featured image for the episode using Sketch (you could use also use Photoshop or Pixelmator. My featured images are 1600x800px, just a simple colored background with a little texture, and the type is our brand font, Le Monde Courier. I export the image as a JPG, then use an app called ImageOptim to reduce the size of the file (so it loads faster). Update: I no longer create custom features images for episodes. I probably should though. 5. Upload and Schedule the Episode in Simplecast Update: When I first recorded the episode, my show was hosted on a WordPress site. It is now hosted on Simplecast, so I'll share instructions for that here instead. Publishing a new episode in Simplecast is easy: I simply enter the title, upload the MP3 file, add the episode summary and episode notes, then save and schedule the draft. You can see the step here if you'd like. I usually proof-read the post and fix any formatting, spelling, or grammatical errors before publishing or scheduling an episode. 6. Mailchimp Email Newsletter Update: I'm not sending email newsletters currently either. I use Mailchimp to send emails for every episode to my email list. If you haven't started an email newsletter for your podcast yet, I recommend it. For my email newsletters, I upload the featured image, copy the description from the beginning of my show notes, then add the takeaways and highlights. I close each newsletter with a personal note about the episode. Creating an email newsletter for every episode can be time consuming, but it's important if you want to build an email list of people that you can sell to later down the road. 7. Wrapping Up After I finish the email newsletter, I'm almost done. This is when I start celebrating because I know I'm getting close to the finish line! I double check everything, look over my process list to make sure I didn't forget to do anything. I schedule the blog post and email newsletter, and then I'm done! After the episode goes live, I post a link on Twitter. I try to give the audience a taste of what I'm going to talk about in the episode, and I also include the featured image. Quick tip: Don't be afraid to share your older content on Twitter. Grab a takeaway from the episode and post it with a link to the episode. Q&A Robert Guzzo and Aneeqah Naeem asked: Do you have any tips for streamlining the podcasting process to make it more efficent? I was thinking about this, and I can't remember ever eliminating any steps from my process. If anything, I've added more steps. There are a few apps I use that save me time. Text Expander is great, it allows you to type a couple keys and then some replacement text gets dropped in. So for example, instead of having to write out http://thepodcastdude.com, I can just hit ‘tpd, and Text Expander will turn that into the URL. If you aren't using Text Expander yet, you should be. Another great time saver has been using templates in Logic. I have templates for projects, templates for channel strips, and I've even customized the default settings for my commonly used plugins. I talked more about time saving tips in episode 15, so go check that out if you haven't yet. I've found that the more you do something, the easier it gets. The first dozen podcast episodes are hard because the process is new. Once you become familiar with it, you don't have to think about it and it becomes muscle memory. If you are pressed for time, make your show shorter. I was listening to an audiobook last week called Pitch Anything. In this book, author Oren Klaff describes how most people's attention span only lasts around 20 minutes before needing to be “reset”. There's no reason why you couldn't make a show shorter than 20 minutes. Like I always say, just make it valuable.
