Wow it was a COMPLETE nightmare trying to get this video turned around. The video has been done for over three weeks, but constant Adobe Media Encoder errors led me into an insanity spiral. But, thankfully after about 15 separate attempts to encode this (each attempt being 2-8 hours), the bug with lumetri and a specific font in one text layer was the culprit.

That really sucks since each encoding attempt would make my computer unusable for "normal" work.

Have I mentioned how much I love unknowingly beta testing for Adobe with their software releases? :)

As some of you know, I moved to a new place in the last month, and that has taken up the majority of my efforts, and I apologize for not posting any updates here. Good news is that I am now fully moved in with a new office setup that is perfect for streaming, making videos, and generally making me feel like a happy and productive human for the first time in 9 months.

Please give the video a watch through if you would like and let me know if there are any weird errors. I did already note that around the 9:52 mark that the digital cropping and framing got totally messed up with some editing. I've fixed that.

Thanks all! Got some great news to tell you about in the next few days regarding tours and shows.

That standoff to GM button has to be an oversight. I can see an other enthusiastic closing of the screen killing that. Also did you happen to notice if the f key illumination now bears any relevance to what the key is doing ie enabled disabled etc. Was frustrating back in the days I used to use onyx.

The f keys follow along and flash when you are assigning it in the function menu. I can’t exactly recall what more they do but for example when the keyboard pop up is up, the function key is also lit up until I close it.

Sure when assigning was fine. If you for example assigned one a function sometimes the led would be on when it was active and other times not. Was a m2go wing when I last tried it was just curious. Thanks.

Hmmm I never noticed it but I didn’t use them that much. Once I found out you can’t do custom macros, there’s not a whole lot of use for the buttons. Everything you can assign to the buttons is already either a hard key or a single button press on the main screen haha

Yes all I ever used them for was for selecting layouts on the screen similar to how I do today on chamsys but they actually have layout keys. Great video and spot on re the rotary encoders

Is there meant to be buzz in the audio seemingly from your lav?

Christian Jackson

Unfortunately I didn’t notice it until after everything was recorded. When I checked it before the shoot, it was clean in headphones, but I believe there was a combination of two audio recorders using the same power supply over USB that caused it. I’ve fixed the setup configuration since then, but for this video I’ve already EQd it as much as possible without making the problem worse. Have to just chalk it up to a lesson learned and do better on the next one :/
