Report Card

Deja vu all over again...

Music History - A
Chorale - A
Organ - B+

Spring / Summer is gonna be a homegrown theory review with emphasis on ear training (2 credits) and organ (2 credits). Prof promises we'll get to service playing this time. And no more Wachet Auf. YAYYY!!!!!
Yahoo! News - Sony Buys Sonic Foundry Products

Another one bites the dust, UH
Another one bites the dust, hey hey hey yeah

Crap. This can't be good. SF has been hurting for a long time, I knew something was coming. Hadn't thought of Sony, though.

So, of my major music software investments:
Encore: Passport is owned by GVox (and sinking fast?)
Gigasampler: Giga is now owned by Tascam
EVP-73: Logic is now owned by Apple (no PC upgrades coming, I bet)
Cubase and Model-E: Steinberg is now owned by Pinnacle
Acid, Sound Forge, and Vegas: Sonic Foundry is now owned by Sony

IOW, the only music software that I use that is still owned by the people who developed it is:
B-4 and Pro-52: Propellerheads

Are they next?

That's it, except for some loop libraries. The rest is freeware, except for some stuff from PGMusic (PowerTracks Pro, Band-in-a-Box) that I haven't been using.
