Perplexity has made a significant move by dropping the price of its AI browser, Comet, from $200 a month to free, igniting what could be an AI browser war. This decision aims to help users navigate the overwhelming amount of low-quality online content by providing tools to summarize web pages and extract key information. A $5 monthly subscription will offer access to content from reputable media outlets, as Perplexity seeks to establish fair revenue-sharing practices with publishers. This shift comes amid ongoing legal challenges regarding content use, but the company emphasizes its commitment to high-quality sources.The recent U.S. government shutdown has led to the expiration of the Cybersecurity and Information Sharing Act of 2015, raising concerns about the future of cybersecurity collaboration. This law provided essential protections for organizations sharing cyber threat intelligence, and its absence is expected to hinder effective incident response. Experts warn that organizations may become more cautious about sharing vital information without the legal protections previously afforded, potentially increasing the risk of cyber attacks as adversaries exploit the disruption.In the tech industry, rumors are circulating about a potential investment deal between Apple and Intel, which raises questions about the future of the chip manufacturer. Apple, having previously transitioned away from Intel chips for its MacBooks, is now considering a collaboration that could see Intel manufacturing chips for Apple's data centers or producing Apple-designed chips. Meanwhile, Apple appears to be stepping back from its Vision Pro headset, which has not gained significant traction in the market, and is instead focusing on developing more affordable smart glasses.Managed service providers (MSPs) are at a critical junction as AI transitions from a luxury to a necessity. A significant portion of organizations lack policies to manage AI adoption effectively, creating both risks and opportunities for service providers. As clients demand faster resolutions and strategic insights, MSPs must modernize their services and establish governance to ensure AI delivers measurable value. The podcast emphasizes the importance of embedding AI capabilities into services rather than selling it as a standalone product, urging providers to focus on delivering outcomes that clients cannot achieve elsewhere.Four things to know today00:00 Perplexity Makes AI Browser Comet Free, Challenging Chrome, Safari, and Edge03:41 U.S. Shutdown Weakens Cyber Defense as Info-Sharing Law Expires, While NIST Races to Build Cyber AI Framework07:09 Apple Rumored to Invest in Intel Amid U.S. Chip Push, While Retreating From Vision Pro in Favor of Smart Glasses10:12 AI Is Becoming the Airline Business: Why MSPs Must Embed Capability, Not Sell Commodity This is the Business of Tech.

September 2025 Edition Hosted by Thomas Domville, Dave Nason, and John GassmanWelcome to the September 2025 edition of Apple Crunch, where we break down the biggest Apple stories and explore what they mean for the blind and low-vision community. This month, we dive into a wide range of updates—from AppleVis itself getting a major facelift, to a critical VoiceOver bug fix in iOS 26.0.1, to Apple's highly anticipated September hardware event with its mix of bold moves and controversial compromises.We also take a closer look at rumors of a new budget-friendly MacBook that could redefine Apple's entry-level lineup, while across the tech landscape Meta is making aggressive plays in AR, VR, and AI that may shape the competition for years to come. Rounding things out, we announce the launch of two exciting new AppleVis series: Gamers Corner, a podcast dedicated to accessible play, and AnonyMouse's App Pick of the Month, a blog feature highlighting standout apps.There's a lot happening this fall, and we're here to make sure you don't miss the updates that matter most.Mentions in This Show: The Crunchy ChaptersA Fresh Look for AppleVis The redesigned AppleVis website brings a cleaner interface, smoother navigation, and a better mobile experience for the accessibility community. Early feedback highlights easier movement across devices, though some longtime users are already looking ahead to future refinements like personalization and faster forums.Apple's Quick Save: VoiceOver Users Get Relief in iOS 26.0.1 Apple wasted no time releasing iOS 26.0.1, a vital patch that fixed a critical VoiceOver bug. For blind and low-vision users who rely on consistency, the update restores confidence and underlines Apple's responsiveness when accessibility issues arise.Apple's Big Reveal: Hits, Misses, and Maybes The September event delivered the lightweight iPhone Air, the redesigned iPhone 17 Pro with its shift from titanium to aluminum, and the upgraded AirPods Pro 3. While innovation was on display, compromises in display, materials, and battery life sparked spirited debates about Apple's direction.The Ghost MacBook: Hiding in Plain Sight? Rumors of a budget-friendly MacBook powered by Apple's upcoming A18 chip hint at a big play for students and first-time Mac buyers. History, however, shows Apple's “affordable” MacBooks often struggle to last. Could this be the one that sticks—or another ghost in the product vault?Meta Moves In: Beyond the Headset At Meta Connect 2025, new Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses, expanded AI companions, and mixed reality initiatives showed the company doubling down on mainstream wearables. The contrast with Apple's high-end Vision Pro is striking: Apple pursues polish, while Meta races for ubiquity.Announcing Gamers Corner: A Podcast for Accessible Play We're thrilled to introduce Gamers Corner, a new AppleVis podcast dedicated to the world of gaming and accessibility. Hosted by passionate gamers from within the community, this show brings together reviews, insights, and discussions about the latest accessible titles, platforms, and trends. It's designed as a space for blind and low-vision players to stay informed, share experiences, and celebrate how far accessible…

-According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the latest Apple silicon is about to hit the assembly lines. In the latest Power On newsletter, Gurman said that Apple "is nearing mass production of its next MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs and two new Mac monitors." Gurman added that these upgraded products are scheduled for release sometime between the end of this year and the first quarter of next year. -Electronic Arts is close to reaching a $50 billion deal that will turn it into a privately held company. That's according to a report in The Wall Street Journal. The video game company filed for an IPO way back in 1990 and has been public ever since, but now a group of investors are in talks with the company to take it private. -Assuming it can turn its Project Orion augmented reality glasses into a real product people can buy, Meta apparently wants to get into robots next. That's according to Sources' Alex Heath, who spoke to Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth and reports that much like Apple, Google and Tesla, Meta is researching robotics. Learn more about your ad choices.

After more than five years of backing and forthing, secret meetings and loud screeds, it appears the fate of TikTok in the US has finally been decided. Maybe. There are still a lot of unknowns, but we're pretty sure we know the bones of the deal — and we know which of President Trump's allies stand to benefit the most. Before we get to all that, though, David and Jake run through some big news in future gadgets, including the long-awaited-and-maybe-happening combination of Android and ChromeOS and the possibilities for a touchscreen MacBook. Then, The Verge's Liz Lopatto joins to talk TikTok. And Trump.

I make no bones about it – I'm a bit of an Apple yuppy. I was hooked at a critical time. Travelling across the US as a one-man tv-news-making band, I often found myself in seat 32B on a cut-price red-eye flight, totally dependent on a laptop with sufficient grunt to edit HD video for hours at a time, and sufficient durability so that when it got knocked about in the overhead locker, the casing would remain in one piece. And the way these companies work is that the moment you rely on them for one thing, they get their claws out and squeeze you ever closer. I went from being a MacBook user, to an iPhone user, to an iPad user, to an AirPod user, to an iCloud subscriber, too. I'm more or less trapped within the system now. Locked into paying Apple every month until I leave this mortal world. But finally, I think I'm drawing the line. Apple has just released its latest Apple Watch and finally caught up to much of the smart device competition by giving users a daily sleep score. The idea is that you wear your watch to bed. It measures your heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, temperature, and your movement. It records what time you go down, the number of disturbances you have, your various sleep cycles, and how much time you ultimately spend between the sheets. And then, 1-100, it gives you a score. Of course, you can be smart scored on all manner of things in life, these days. You can get a smart toothbrush that'll connect to an app on your phone and give you personalised feedback on your brushing technique. Breezed over a lower molar too quickly? That'll affect your score. You can get a smart razor that'll do the same thing. Pushed a bit hard on a tricky chin dimple? Stiff cheese. That'll affect your score. You can buy a smart water bottle that'll score your hydration. You can be scored on your light exposure and your posture. Apparently if you're really curious, there's even a market in devices that'll score individual sexual wellbeing. Just maybe don't Google them at work. But to me, at least, there's a fundamental contradiction at the heart of the sleep score concept. If I'm having a bad night's sleep, few things are guaranteed to make it worse than knowing I'm being assessed. I'd get anxious. I'd stress out, toss and turn, flip my pillow back and forth. And for what? Just to read a number in the morning that tells me what I already know. I don't need a smart watch or a special ring to know I've had a bad night's sleep. I know because I feel bad. So I should've gone to bed earlier or shouldn't have had that late afternoon coffee? I should've turned off those other screens and devices earlier? Thank you, but instead of looking up a score I'll look in the mirror instead. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

[Music] Hello and thank you very much for listening to this episode of the Billy Newman Photo Podcast. I’m talking about a photograph that I made on the Oregon coast today doing Blue Hour probably. I think it was after the sun had set. It was sort of like the golden hour to talk about right as the hour as the sun is setting into sunset. The blue hour they also talk about as after the sun goes down there’s a lot of those blue kind of purple tones that show up in the atmosphere or you know in the clouds and in the water. There’s just a lot more of that tone as the sun drops and it’s a spectrum shift from what we see in the daylight to what we see at night time. But I think this was a photograph taken on the Oregon coast. I think your band-in if I’m right. And I really liked this photo. It just had it wasn’t really a big structure in the wave or a big curl or anything like that. That would be that’d be really striking but I really appreciate this photograph as kind of a close-up look at I just sort of the dreamy feeling of being on the coast. But it was definitely a photograph that I liked a lot and I like that line in the skies as it cuts across as you can kind of see at the top there there’s a bit of like a cloud break that goes down and that’s where we get a lot of that light from the sky in the background that kind of cuts underneath that big brim of cloud that goes over the top of the snet that causes a lot of bounce from the ground back up to the sky and then back down and you get a cooler or you get a defused sort of soft light in that effect which I think is really cool. You can see more of my work at billyneuminphoto.com. You can check out some of my photo books on Amazon. I think you can look up billyneumin under the authors section there and see some of the photo books on film, on the desert, on surrealism, on camping. Some cool stuff over there. Finished up that camping trip I was doing up the mountain creek there in the cascades a couple days ago. That was that like Wednesday. I think it was like maybe like Tuesday, Tuesday night to Wednesday morning. I think that was this super moon that was coming up that night if I remember right and that was pretty cool. It was cool to see the full moon up there and they always talk about the super moon which is kind of a I don’t know it’s a little bit of a misnomer but it’s cool to see too that I think they talk about happening every six months or so. Really it’s just kind of the oscillation of a bit of the eccentricities and the orbit of the moon that make it I think about 25,000 miles closer that it’s maximum and then maybe about 25,000 miles further away and it’s distant maximum but I think it’s really like a little bit of a sliver larger than it normally would be. If you notice though it’s a thing I learned way back and I think they they they show it in a scene in Apollo 13 but if you put your hand all the way out and you put your thumb up at all times you’re able to cover the entire full moon just with your thumbnail. It’s pretty wild but you got kind of always like visualize the moon is being this really big thing in the sky and really a lot of the time it’s it’s just as big as your thumbnail at arm’s reach which is kind of a trip but it’s kind of a it was cool to see the super moon that night it was really bright it was cool to kind of watch around and kind of look at how it was illuminating the forest and the trees and the mountains and stuff around me that was kind of nice to see cold that night though man I tell you so I have a 15 degree sleeping bag and that’s great 15 degrees is fine but and 15 degrees really is is more than adequate for most circumstances that I ended up in and during the summertime where it’s I don’t know it’s just not too big of a concern about how cold it gets but when it says 15 degrees it really means you’re going to be comfortable down to somewhere around 35 degrees but anywhere under 30 degrees is a pretty uncomfortable experience I think it means you’re going to stay alive that until it’s about 15 degrees so if it were me again buying something for maybe I don’t know a more heavy three season camping experience most of the time probably a lot of the nights out that I do even though I like to go at all times a year it seems like the majority of nights I go out are during the summer months or during like pretty fair weather seasons but if I were going to buy again which I’m going to try and get like a two or three sleeping bag system going if I was going to buy again I’d probably get a zero degree or maybe a negative 15 degree you know I could really use the warms because man what I noticed is even if it was just a little bit down to what would have been probably maybe I don’t know 29 or something like that it was you know it was a bit below freezing who knows how cold it really was it was only like an elevation of 2500 feet and it was a canyon I thought it was a clear night but I thought it would be relatively sheltered and yeah it was a lot of it was a lot of ice on my window when I woke up and it was a cold cold night to sit through too so yeah that 15 degree bag was just hold up out there but yeah if I was going to go again I think they have like a zero degree bag and then down below that they have like a negative 15 and like maybe like a negative 30 degree bag negative 30 sounds like a real warm like down back so I think mine’s a synthetic bag they talk about this sometimes where there’s like differences in the the thermal insulation qualities of the material that your sleeping bag is made out of and I think that the for it was it was an improvement actually you know above whatever cotton we were using for a while they were using wool stuff which was pretty smart that that works really well to be an insulating material and it doesn’t all right it works well with moisture and stuff and all the other things we know about marina wool is really cool everybody knows about that kind of stuff but we had like you know those really terrible big cotton sleeping bags way back those erupted and I don’t know if they were really even that insulating then they switched over to those synthetic materials which is probably all oil based is that sound right like a petroleum based like plastics product that was made out of synthetics I think that’s how they spin up a lot of those those I don’t know just those synthetic types of materials that they’re making these nylons out of so I think that was how all out of this this synthetic stuff had been made but really I think what they they talk about being the superior insulator is down and that’s what I’d hope to try and find as another zero degree or negative 15 degree sleeping bag would be a negative 15 degree down bag which is normally a bit more expensive you know when you’re looking around at the price points for these different sleeping bags if you’re trying to get into some colder weather camping stuff what you’re going to find is at those name brand or you know not even name brand this is a just a a bespoke manufacturer for a quality technical outdoors product is going to be very expensive and so that’s where you’re going to find I don’t know well you know three three 99 for a sleeping bag two 99 four 99 six 99 I’ve seen like a lot of pretty expensive prices out there I think Nimo makes some bags that are looking pretty cool that I’ve seen recommended a few times I’ve heard a big agnus they make tens most of the time though right they’re tank up and here aren’t they yeah stone glaciers one that I keep hearing kind of pop up here and there now for some sense marm it I think got some bags all right eyes so is you know a retailer of recreational equipment they’re closed right now though so I don’t even know if you could get an order from anyone like that but but they have some bags I think that’s where my synthetic bag was from that I’ve been using for the last I don’t know seven years or so so that’s it’s been fine but I also tested out the sleeping mat I got I got a new thermo rest sleeping mat and now big news it’s pretty exciting guys stay tuned it’s uh yeah it’s a larger sleeping mat than I have before but it’s a coded one with the I think it’s kind of like I don’t know it’s ballistic now but it’s that nylon coating over it so it’s not just the rubber mat at the base of it so you can throw it on the ground or on the semi abrasive materials that it would be outside and it’s working great I think it’s about one inch thick or so it’s about 25 inches wide at the shoulder point and it’s long enough to fit my old body which is probably a new one for me so yeah I got a solid camp mat I think for the last like three years I’m sleeping on one that goes flat about four hours after you start sleeping so that’s kind of nice to swap out I don’t know why I put up with it for so long really should do that sleep is like one of the best things you can get you know if you can figure out just like a couple easy things to take care of when you’re out camping or out in the woods and stuff it’s it’s probably sleep I mean that’s like the thing that takes you know and it’s frustrating too because when like even the last one I’m talking about didn’t sleep very well way too cold part of it you know enough shelter enough stuff that was kind of comfortable but really as it is yeah it’s like oh I need to I need to figure out a couple other extra things to kind of throw in there but yeah there’s just a couple things you can figure out when you’re going camping like how to stay warm or how to be comfortable when you do go or like when you are sleeping it’s like one of the most important and most I don’t know effective things you can do to kind of improve the way that a trip goes because like yeah I can be like I can be brutal the next day if you don’t get any sleep the night before which is probably the first half dozen camping trips of the year you know this first half dozen or so overnight to the year I’m just always kind of groggy and like oh why don’t I have to get up right now which is sort of how it was Wednesday morning when I woke up yeah I popped up and I think it was probably about five a.m. or so that I that I got up I think it was just about first light the sun had come up yeah but there’s a little bit of light up in the sky and the stars were kind of washed out by the blue sky so I hopped up and the fire was out I think from the night before like I was mentioning how those the sticks had worn out and the colds had started burning down even I think by the time I was near the end of my last podcast so I hopped out and the the back windows were clear there wasn’t any frost on it but the front window the windshield was ice over pretty hard really I mean it looked like it was you know like coated in water and then froze over solid so it wasn’t even just kind of like a fluffy bit of white frost or something that had built up on it through fog it just looked like a hard coating of just a nice sheet over the windshield so that no great I don’t have an ice scraper or something with me I’m thinking it’s me you know who needs an ice scraper I’m taking a sip of coffee so yeah I don’t know I grabbed a box I think it was a piece of cardboard out of the back that I could kind of flex around a bit through that over the windshield tried to run the truck for a bit try to warm it up it took a while too but yeah scraped off some ice scraped off a whole big enough to kind of get started on the drive and then prepped to take off but yeah I took some photos and stuff around the campsite for a bit first in the morning nice draw on the valley like I was talking about that goes up to that that ridge point that you can kind of see off in the distance and I think I could see like the the fire from the smoke or the smoke from the fire of the neighboring campers over there I don’t know if I’d mentioned it well yeah I definitely didn’t last one how they were they’re kind of doing brotes out in the on the road around sunset I think I got a little clip of it on video but yeah it’s like four or five of them and these kind of beater late 90s four by four trucks doing spins out in the dirt roads so looks fun I don’t know but they were I think getting the fire going and stuff in the morning too or whatever they had going from the night before if you can see a plume of it coming up from that area they would have been camping in over by the the creek bed downhill and yeah it was cool it took some photos and stuff that morning walked around kind of cleaned up the camp a little bit put the fire stuff out and jumped in the truck had that little hole in the ice to see through and then yeah popped on a podcast and cruised down the road and so what I was trying to do was it was take off down to a couple other spots along the creek while it was still morning and then head down ultimately to the area where the lake started to build up and so kind of how it works is like it kind of flows down the creek and then there’s a dam at a point ultimately and then back right behind the dam is a reservoir where that creek is kind of built up and I guess now is yeah a body of water out there so drove down a ways and took some photographs of the creek and the morning light and some of the water and stuff coming through I really like that kind of affected the the sort of early spring kind of fresh snow melt mountain creek stuff that just sort of looks really crisp and forested and natural and then I came down a ways further to a bridge that kind of cuts across the span of the creek as it starts to sort of widen out into the reservoir area and it looks like a you know a big stretch of calm water out on the edge of the the bridge where I think two different groups that were doing some fishing in the morning and yeah it seems like people are still out it was a busy area up there is still still definitely pretty fully populated set of people you know even during this lockdown period there’s a bunch of people out there hanging out in fishing I think it was two different different groups it too maybe they were they were all kind of connected but yeah they were they were out there with a couple lines over the bridge and they were picking up a couple things and things so I saw a lady that was pulling up in a little a little blue kayak to the ramp on the first day and on her what is that thing you know when you you run it through the gilling at you got the fish and stuff anyway just she pulled up with like got it is like four or five trout or something on her on her in her kayak I don’t know that’s where I’ll leave it I guess but she pulled up with four or five trout so I figured these guys these guys were doing a little bit of trout fish out there which sounds fun it’s a nice clear crisp morning stuff like I was saying so yeah it sounds like it’d be nice to be out there for a couple hours doing sufficient and yeah it looked like they were they were up to it they were getting a couple things it’s cool to a son osprey that they took off I think over the lake area just at that time and would kind of like pull up at certain spots over the water kind of back flap to hold in the same spot and look under water and see if there was something and then I don’t know didn’t see enough or didn’t see a prime opportunity and then we’re gonna swoop off and then take off to a different section of the lake and do it again so watch that about three or four times try to take a couple pictures of the area which you’re nice too I like the photographs that I got that morning it’s got to got a nice nice look to it really you know a lot of the time the photographs really look a lot better when you just select the right time of day to be somewhere which you know is obvious but just the types of colors and the types of saturation and dynamics that you get in the the look of a pretty simple you know set of trees and water it just comes off a lot better when it’s it’s just the right type of light it’s really amazing to to kind of see what differences it makes when it’s a cloud a day or a sunny day or a morning or an evening or midday really it seems like the dynamics of the light change so much that you can get like a totally different look in the photo which is always kind of interesting to pay attention to and sort of see how that how that goes what changes about it and sort of how that affects the photographs that you’re making I mean you can have you know some cool at any time of day but it’s kind of cool to figure out how it works for you or how it works or what I’m trying to do is how how to figure out how how it works for my photographs and what I’m trying to do which is nice I don’t know it was cool going out there and climbing around the creeks and stuff in the morning and taking a couple photos and water and osprey and going over to the lake area that’s trying to work on similar stuff to what I’ve done before but kind of that mirrored look of the really calm water as it spreads across the lake in the morning and then the reflection of the the bright blue kind of pre-sunlit sky or how is it you know like before the sun is actually up over the horizon there’s not a lot of intensity so it’s just kind of a softer blue glow in a lot of ways and then there’s still enough illumination that you can see the greens and the trees and sort of the soft calm water in the morning before it gets kind of agitated through the rest of the day so nice kind of peaceful looks to the the photos and sort of the natural stuff that I like to go kind of capture you know really ultimately though there’s some nice stuff up there and I was really like happy to kind of photograph some of the some of what I was looking for but I was also also frustrated in the area too I think there was a there’s is a little more choked off than what I normally like like there wasn’t as many opportunities as I had hoped for I had to try and you know utilize the ones that I found but there wasn’t as many opportunities as I had hoped for for kind of an opened up wide scene that you could set up a landscape photo and there wasn’t a lot of elements to really work with it was just sort of a you know that’s like some rolling hills off to a green hill so sometimes I’m trying to find some stuff that’s a little bit more dynamic and it’s look than that but it’s fun though even as it is anyway though I’m trying to I think maybe like I was mentioned last one I got stuck and turned around but the snow and I didn’t want to deal with any of that right now but in the next weeks and stuff I want to get up to Mount Jefferson or Mount Washington or a couple of these other wilderness areas that they have a few kind of visual landmarks that

some things kind of related to the lockdown pandemic stuff but I kind of changed what I was talking about a little bit for this podcast but I wanted to get into was some of the training stuff I’ve been looking into around logic pro 10.5 that has just come out recently and I thought it’d be kind of kind of cool to go over a little bit of an overview of some of the new features and stuff that are there and some of the stuff that you can do with a digital audio workstation and why why I’d bother talking about it but I think it was about about a year ago or so I was talking about setting up the studio in the house that I’m not here and how I was getting a PC computer ready to go is an older one is I think like something from some test up I had around from from 2010 or 11 or so yeah yeah about that time and I remember getting that computer setup with a I think it was yeah I had like windows 10 on it and then I was using I think the same audio interface usb out into the computer and then I downloaded I downloaded sonar the new version of sonar that you can get for free I think it had been owned by what was k-quack sonar and then I think Gibson had bought out k-quack and so it became Gibson sonar and then I think Gibson decided that wasn’t going to be part of their business anymore so I think they just kind of shut it down essentially but then sold that off to band lab and band lab is a I think a one or it’s another internet company they have kind of a simplified digital audio workstation app that you can use to kind of create a demo or something like that but what they had done is they they’d gone through I guess and had purchased probably for a relatively inexpensive price or I don’t know I assume since they’re just they’re just keeping it and kind of hardly maintaining it or you know doing a bit to maintain it but they took the the sonar platinum program the full digital audio workstation multi-tracking tool and they made it free for people to use and for people to get but I think it’s only a Windows only program so you got to have Windows 10 to run it so I did that yeah and and sonar was a program that I’d work with before for doing some some studio multi-tracking stuff I think years ago probably around like 2012-2013 when I was when I was working with some friends to set up some studio equipment stuff was cool we had like a big sound craft ghost that was laid out and then we had a bunch of a bunch of channels kind of running into that from from the microphones they were using to track this band and then that all went into a pretty old computer was amazing what it could do you know for just a you know it’s probably like a 2 gigabyte of RAM you know smaller hard drive 2004 or 5 6 era PC computer no I probably wouldn’t need that much right there’s something about that time but that’s what we used yeah that’s like all we had all we had with us we had a I think it was like a pre-sowness audio interface and then we got like like an eight-channel audio interface that was really cool you know we had like eight eight digital audio channels coming into the interface which means we could track eight live channels into sonar at a time and it didn’t even hit up you know even on that old machine and so it was interesting how that architecture worked to do some editing stuff but so sonar is what I had been using before for some stuff really audition Adobe edition is what I’d use most for some of this kind of the more simple radio broadcast style stuff and that’s what I had learned to use when I was at when I was at a radio station doing an internship years and years ago back in 2008 right summer 2008 and did that and they used the Adobe edition version 1.5 to do all their radio production edits and yeah I remember going in taking calls with the production guy I don’t know somebody calling into do like a I think they would do like a water level report it was really interesting radio that station you know you could figure but they would have like this I don’t know something you know it’s it’s 1245 and here’s your local water level report for July 28th or something and then it would be some lady that would call in from a department that would measure the stuff and she would give her water report and the production guy you’d record it and then produce that and then it’d be prepped to go out on air later you know it was like a spot that a DJ would trigger upstairs and so we’d kind of walk through using audition to do those steps and so learning that as a program is probably the first one that I’d done which a product probably goes back to high school or before that when I was doing editing stuff but but sonar back to sonar was some of the stuff that I’d used probably give it more for the for the music you know like trying to like track a band or do like multi-tracking projects but so yeah that’s what I’d used a bit that’s why I thrown on this windows 10 PC to do some audio production stuff for this podcast workflow that I was trying to get into and it’s cool it works really well but but I stepped using that computer a while ago I think the the windows 10 computer that I’m talking about had a power supply go bad which could be replaced pretty easily and and is on a to-do list of mine but since then I’ve really just been relying on kind of like I had mentioned just recording recording onto the device and then using Adobe addition to do the post production work on my MacBook which is I don’t know it’s just it’s just a more it’s just a better workflow and stuff for the most part so I’m kind of sticking with that but recently to get to the point as you are all excited logic pro 10.5 has come out now logic as yet to be mentioned in this podcast logic pro is the program that was produced by Apple as the professional digital audio work station and so there’s garage band which probably a lot of people have some experience with and garage band is sort of the trimmed down simplified home user version of a program like like logic pro and they’ve done that intentionally I think it’s the same team that generates the two programs and if you if you look at them or you look at their interfaces and you look at the types of access you have to things you really do see a familiar similarity to it which is cool so if you’ve used something like garage band in the past for home projects you won’t really have as big of a difficulty moving into a more professional digital audio workstation environment like logic pro 10 so I think it was logic pro 10 just you know 10 zero it came out when I don’t probably like 2013 or so I think that was that was sold for 200 bucks so it was like a purchase price of 199 and then since then you get the point updates for free or you know as included with your original purchase so just recently I think there had been like 10.4 before this and then now they’ve moved on to 10.5 and 10.5 I think it’s probably the biggest as noted by you know playing in new sources as noted as one of the most significant feature updates that logic has had probably in years and years I mean I think this is the first end of the concert removed and updated some of those legacy items that have been in there since 2003 or four or five you know it was just some of these legacy products that were that were originally put in there is including their interfaces too it looks like a 2002 interface for for you know like there’s these synthesizer interfaces where these these weird knobs that you have to these weird just rotating features of the interface it looks like it looks ridiculous I don’t know there were any other way to explain it but it’s it’s pretty wild for some of the some of the stuff that’s just remained in computer computer systems for a long time but for 10.5 they try to go through and update a lot of that stuff and it’s really interesting there’s a lot of cool new features in logic 10.5 so logic is real similar to sonar which is I guess kind of why I mentioned it and at least from my experience as similar you guys would probably think it’s similar to I don’t know what people that are listening probably actually have some well no one’s listening what do we say if someone were to bother to try and find some information out about logic and they ended up listening to this podcast they probably have had some information about it or they would be coming from from an experience with avid’s pro tools and pro tools is like the industry standard for multitracking DAW software and I’ve never used it I’ve never opened pro tools I’ve never seen pro tools you know in in its process at all I don’t know I’ve got I’ve looked at a couple videos or something but yeah I have no I have no experience working in pro tools and I don’t know I’m not a fan of avid’s software overall you know for pro tools or for or for the avid system of a video editing stuff either I’m just I’m not I’m not really that interested in the kind of stuff that they put together and it really for price and stuff too it just seems kind of kind of over done a little bit so I’m pretty happy with with some of the other the other more available tools that are in the consumer computer market I mean I think it’s like 800 bucks or something still to get to get avid’s pro tools and I think that in the past it was you know insanely more than that even well you know kind of proprietary back in the past it was more difficult now I think M audio is a partner with pro tools and so in the past if you have pro tools you have a lot of proprietary pro tools audio interfaces that you had to use if you wanted to set up your studio to work seamlessly with the pro tools software now I think they’ve made a deal with M audio which is sort of like a less expensive audio interface manufacturer they’ve had like interfaces and microphones and you know they’ve got like an array of I think they’ve got like some studio monitors they’ve got some interfaces they’ve got like keyboards is a big one that they’ve got I’ve got a keyboard over here from M audio and what is it yeah M audio less expensive they make pro tools interfaces which is cool now so that they’ve got a partnership with pro tools and I think that they’ve been trying to make that more accessible to musicians probably because it’s become a more competitive market with well really with like logic logic pro I think I think the industry standard set is I don’t know it always seems like more secure than it should be you know that doesn’t it doesn’t seem like an absolute the pro tools should be the the digital audio workstation of of engineers across the world but for whatever reason it’s just kind of taken over and and as those people you know are still still in those positions I think that’s that’s just with tat and audio recording school it’s like a standard even though there’s a lot of other good other good services and choices out there I think I’ve seen soar and logic taught a lot too so I don’t know they’re definitely competitive and and as I’ve been hearing more there’s there’s I don’t know there’s produced you know music producers that are coming out saying oh yeah I do a lot of a lot of my work in in logic and then there’s you know there’s a whole class of music producers that are logic based producers are stone our based producers are and all right it seems to kind of rotate around every couple years for for who’s doing water you know who wants to look cool people that use pro tools one of the cool probably a lot of time so back to back to old logic pro 10.5 here’s the good stuff so thanks a lot for checking out this episode of the Billy Newman photo podcast hope you guys check out some stuff on billyneuminfoadow.com a few new things up there some stuff on the homepage some good links to other other outbound sources some links to books some links to some podcasts links to some blog posts all pretty cool yeah check

They start it off with experiences after using the new iPhones for a week before talking about the rumors that MacBooks might finally be getting a touchscreen. Then Marques updates everyone on all of the new features that YouTube announced. After that, it's all about the three new Meta glasses that were announced at Meta Connect.
