De nuevo volvemos a la carga hablando de cómo afectan los bots de IA a las búsquedas y el posicionamiento y de paso tratamos alguna que otra herramienta para crear sitios webs con IA y ya de paso os recordamos que sería estupendo que os apuntaseis al canal de Youtube del podcast https://www.youtube.com/potenciapro para llegar a los 500 suscriptores, la semana pasada os apuntasteis 8, de modo que el camino a los 500 se ha acortado bastante. ¡MUCHAS GRACIAS! Tema del día En un ecosistema digital donde la inmediatez lo es todo, asistimos a una paradoja fundamental: el silencio de la barra de búsqueda. Este fenómeno no es un accidente, sino la consecuencia de una crisis silenciosa alimentada por nuestros propios datos. Como hablamos en el capítulo del podcast, el auge de la era del «Cero Clic» y la inteligencia artificial generativa está reconfigurando la relación entre el usuario y la información, llevando a casos extremos de canibalismo entre bots que luchan por un tráfico cada vez más retenido en las plataformas. Frente a este panorama, la conclusión es ineludible: para las marcas y los creadores de contenido, la única vía posible es adaptarse o desaparecer. Mariano nos hace un resumen navegando entre estos puntos: El Silencio de la Barra de Búsqueda Contexto: Los Datos de una Crisis Silenciosa Análisis: El Auge del «Cero Clic» y la IA Ejemplos: El Canibalismo de los Bots Conclusión: Adaptarse o Desaparecer Actualidad Hablamos entre otras cosas de la celebración de la WordCamp Europe que se celebrará en Cracovia este verano, de que estoy deseando ir para allá y de las distintas llamadas que se están realizando desde la organización.

Rivendere un servizio con tanta fuffa. Gli editori legali del mondo messi a nudo per aver venduto il nulla ai loro clienti.E crollano in borsa. Perche' ?Claude monitora i prompt, vede quelli piu' usati, e li replica generando plugin gratuti.Cosi' Claude genera il legal plugin, lo mette su github e i titoli degli editori nel mondo crollano.Era prevedibile, ma per evitarlo c'e' da fare molto lavoro.E allora meglio fregare i clienti e bruciare il mercato.Bello vero ?https://www.reddit.com/r/legaltech/comments/1qwwg4u/the_entire_claudeanthropic_legal_plugin_hysteria/

New models this week from Anthropic and OpenAI A new Opus and a new Codex – the Agentic Coding war is only continuing to heat up. Both are now incredibly capable and are giving technical users who can't write code superpowers. Anthropic's new Legal plugin wiped $50 billion from the stock market The Co-Work plugin for Claude can review legal documents, flag risks, and track compliance. Legal tech stocks took a hammering. Harvey, a legal focused startup, does exactly the same thing as this plugin, and is/was valued at $8 billion. There are a lot of AI startups that are "wrappers", basically adding some UI or workflow on top of these models. We're going to see a lot of startups die as the big AI platforms start to offer specialist tools. The EU says TikTok is too addictive for kids But how do you solve it? The Commission has some ideas, including adding screentime breaks (so the user's app disabled for a set number of minutes?), changing its algorithms (showing less interesting content?), and disabling the "infinite scroll" (so forcing a user to go back to a menu to pick their next video?).

There are a few technical difficulties this week, the internet was not our friend. We appreciate your patience :)____________________________________________________________This week we're exploring Strum Plate by Gulf Coast Synthesis, a free MIDI effect that separates what you play from when you play it.Inspired by the touchplate interface of the Omnichord, Strum Plate lets you hold chords with one hand while manually strumming notes into existence using a mouse or pitch wheel. It's less about precision and more about feel, gesture, and discovering new musical behaviours.Rather than reviewing features, this episode is about experimentation. We'll be pairing Strum Plate with different synths and sounds, pushing it in unexpected directions, and seeing what kinds of rhythms, textures, and performance ideas emerge along the way.If you're curious about alternative MIDI workflows, playful sound design tools, or finding inspiration in free plugins, this one's for you.Check out the Strum Plate Here:https://www.gulfcoastsynthesis.com/strum-plate.htmlLars Haur has a new track out.

In this episode of IPS Finance, Economist V. Nagappan analyzes the sharp fall in the IT sector triggered by concerns around the Anthropic AI Plugin and its potential impact on traditional IT services. Should investors view this decline as a warning sign or a fresh investment opportunity? Alongside the IT sector discussion, the video also looks at the renewed uptrend in Gold and Silver prices, explaining the global factors driving precious metals higher amid uncertainty. This episode offers balanced insights to help investors understand sectoral risks, emerging AI disruptions, and how to position their portfolios wisely in a volatile market environment.

Today you get a chance to learn with a 2x Oscar-winning film chemist who spent nearly 30 years working at Kodak. He's the co-creator of Genesis, the man behind the Joker LUT, and the person who built the Kodak Look Management System - basically the first film emulation out there (so good, Kodak's "jaws dropped").It's a very special treat to further introduce you to Dr. Mitch Bogdanowicz, who's about to share some important grading and filmmaking lessons from his 50 year career in the business. We'll also be revealing the process behind how we built our film emulation plugin Genesis.Also, Mitch's knowledge goes far beyond just film chemistry. After working in the film business for nearly 50 years (and nabbing two Academy Awards along the way), he's an incredible problem-solver and collaborator – skills he's passed along to his three kids, who all have done major work in Hollywood and film.Mitch also covers:Why finding the perfect LUT won't make your job easier — and what you need to do insteadThe thing most colorists try to do that works against getting great filmic imagesWhy only focusing on color is "career suicide"How to be a stand-out collaborator instead of an order-takerThe right process for problem-solving in a gradeWhy recording out to film for "the film look" is mostly a waste of moneyWant to understand what makes film the gold standard in high-end grading — and get those aesthetics in your own work using tools you already have?

Free synth plugins can feel overwhelming, especially when you're staring at an empty patch and just want results. In this episode of Inside The Mix, Marc Matthews walks beginner and intermediate producers through a practical Surge XT tutorial, showing how to design mix-ready high strings from an init patch using this powerful free synth plugin.Surge XT is a free, open-source synthesizer packed with features, but more options don't always mean better results. Marc focuses on what actually matters in a real track: speed, tone, and fit in the mix. Starting with a quick interface overview, he explains how small workflow tweaks, like using Surge XT's Dark skin, can improve focus before sound design even begins.From there, the episode breaks down a simple, repeatable system: building the core tone with two saw oscillators, controlled unison width, and careful detuning to avoid phase issues. Marc explains envelope shaping in plain language, why octave placement matters for strings, and how gentle filtering prevents harshness without killing brightness.The final section covers effects that solve problems at the source. You'll hear how light chorus and plate reverb help strings sit in a dense house mix—often reducing the need to fight levels later. Along the way, Marc shares a clear framework for evaluating any free synthesizer: how fast it gets you to a usable sound, how intuitive the controls are, and whether the result works in context.If you're looking for a free synth plugin that earns its place in your workflow, this episode shows how to test Surge XT properly, inside a real project with real constraints.TL:DR: Marc designs high strings from scratch in Surge XT, showing how to judge a free synth plugin by speed, clarity, and real mix results—not presets.Links mentioned in this episode:Surge XTSend me a message Support the showWays to connect with Marc: Book your FREE Music Breakthrough Strategy Call Radio-ready mixes start here - get the FREE weekly tips Follow Marc's Socials: Instagram | YouTube | Synth Music Mastering Thanks for listening!!

In this Building Better Foundations episode, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche talk with Wes Towers of Uplift360, a Melbourne-based digital agency serving the construction and trades industry. The discussion centers on niching for developers—how focusing on a specific audience helps software teams and agencies communicate better, deliver faster, and build lasting client trust. Key Idea: Niching for developers isn't about limiting opportunities — it's about amplifying your expertise and clarity in the markets that need you most. About the Guest — Wes Towers Wes Towers is the founder of Uplift 360, a Melbourne-based digital agency that helps builders and trades turn websites into trusted, lead-generating tools. With over 20 years of hands-on experience, Wes focuses on authenticity, clear strategy, and measurable growth — no fluff, just results. Through his work and podcast appearances, he shares practical insights on niching for developers, SEO, and building trust in an AI-driven world.

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette chats with developer Mark Westguard about the new Image Roulette plugin, which randomizes images on WordPress sites while keeping alt text and captions for accessibility. The plugin was inspired by Michelle's need to display randomized Speed Networking conversation cards.They demonstrate how it works, discuss potential eCommerce uses, and share experiences using AI tools like Claude to speed up development. The episode also highlights collaboration, creativity, and fun within the WordPress community.Top Takeaways:Image Roulette Plugin: Michelle's accessibility challenge inspired Mark to create a plugin that randomizes images while preserving alt text and captions. Within hours, he developed a fully functional prototype that later became a public WordPress plugin.Accessibility at the Core: The plugin automatically uses each image's existing media library fields (alt text, title, caption), ensuring accessibility is built-in rather than an afterthought — aligning with WordPress's broader emphasis on inclusive design.Simplicity and Versatility: Image Roulette works via both a Gutenberg block and a shortcode, making it compatible with different site builders. It's ideal not only for random prompts but also for creative and commercial applications, such as eCommerce product showcases.Mentioned In The Show:MooImage RouletteInsta WPClaudeCursorAngieWP World

That dedication led to the creation of Monument Sound, a private studio set 7,400 feet up in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. In 2022, he leveled up his studio with a Dolby-approved ATMOS mixing room, allowing him to deliver immersive, three-dimensional mixes that help artists compete in today's evolving audio world.

“Surround yourself with people you admire.” In this episode of Recording Studio Rockstars, I had the pleasure of talking with Brendan Duffey, a multi-Grammy-nominated mix and mastering engineer with nearly 30 years of experience. Brendan has worked with legends like Kendrick Lamar, Sheryl Crow, Milton Nascimento, and Bruce Dickinson—best known as the iconic lead singer of Iron Maiden and a legendary solo artist in his own right. Brendan brings a deep understanding of both the technical and emotional sides of music production. We talked about everything from his early days teaching audio engineering—where he learned how to explain complex concepts in simple ways—to his approach to mixing and mastering across different genres. Brendan shared what it was like to remix and master much of Bruce Dickinson's solo catalog, how he thinks about low-end in hip-hop, and why sometimes a mistake in the studio can lead to your most exciting creative breakthrough. He also opened up about how vocal production has changed over the years, moving from an auditory process to a more visual one, and why he believes simplicity, emotional connection, and knowing your tools inside and out are what really make a mix come alive. Brendan reminded me that mixing isn't just about the gear or the plugins—it's about bringing out the best in the performance and creating something that moves people. This was a killer episode with tons of great insight, whether you're just starting out or deep in your career.

What does it take to rise from cleaning studios to shaping some of the most iconic records of our time? Trina Shoemaker's story is not just about breaking into the music industry—it's about breaking through it. As the first woman to win a Grammy for Best Engineered Album, Trina paved the way for a generation of female producers and engineers, and she brings her powerful voice and razor-sharp insight to this inspiring and unfiltered conversation. In this episode, Trina shares how she went from mopping floors at Capitol Records to earning Grammy wins for her work with artists like Sheryl Crow and Emmylou Harris. She tells the behind-the-scenes stories of working on Wrecking Ball and how that album helped define the sound of Americana. We explore her years in London learning the art of engineering, her move to New Orleans to join the legendary Kingsway Studio, and the deep musical and personal lessons she learned along the way. Trina also pulls back the curtain on the realities of being a woman in a male-dominated field—how she navigated the industry, demanded respect, and held true to her belief in capturing raw, honest performances. She discusses her approach to vocal production, why she avoids auto-tune, and how crafting backing vocals is one of her secret weapons. Beyond her life in the studio, Trina opens up about her love of writing and her dream of publishing a novel and having actor Will Patton narrate the audiobook. Whether you're a seasoned engineer or just starting out, this episode offers a powerful reminder: authenticity, persistence, and a deep respect for the artist's process will always rise above the noise. Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is Trina Shoemaker, who was born in 1965 and raised in Joliet, IL, southwest of Chicago. Over the past three-and-a-half decades, she has produced, recorded and mixed hundreds of records. A four-time Grammy® Award winner and six-time nominee, she is the first woman to win the Grammy® for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. Her credits run the gamut from Queens Of The Stone Age, Rodney Crowell, Charley Crockett and Iggy Pop to Sheryl Crow, Brandi Carlile and Tanya Tucker. Although audio engineering is a passion, writing songs and playing musical instruments are not. Instead, while her ears are busy in the studio recording music, her imagination is busy creating characters, narratives, plotlines and dialogues as she travels through the hidden workings of songs. These stories have culminated in the creation of her debut novel, Bury Me Alive In Your Sugar. Trina lives on Mobile Bay in Fairhope, Alabama, with her husband, singer-songwriter Grayson Capps.
