These days it seems like there are more #plugins available than ever before, but how many of them do we really need? Do we risk overdoing it?
I've been on the verge of less being more for a few years now. My DAW of choice is Cakewalk Sonar, and I can't help but wonder whether there's a point at which we should stop. After all, too many plugins can slow our DAW right down, so it's not as if there are no downsides to this.
But for no...

If you're looking for a compressor that can add warmth and punch to your tracks, XTMax is definitely worth checking out.
In this episode of "Not Just Music," Duan shares the history and origins of the Fula Flute.

As Duan explains, the Fula Flute is traditionally played by Fula shepherds, who use it to communicate with each other over long distances. Duan demonstrates what the Fula Flute sounds like and shows us how to use it in musi...
Are you the type of person who struggles to apologize? Are you afraid of saying sorry? Do you think apologies are a weakness? If so, this might be your biggest weakness. I'm not sure I could be friends with someone who never apologizes. For me, the ability to own up to mistakes and say you're sorry is a sign of strength and maturity. If you have trouble saying you're sorry, that's okay. But it’s something that you should work on. S...

This week on Not Just Music Podcast, we’re shining a light on Scott’s Rosenwald School.

Scott’s Rosenwald was located in Iredell County, North Carolina, but there’s not a lot of history available about it. We still want to raise awareness about this important part of our past and hope that someone can c...
