The plural of anecdote is not data and all that but COVID resulted in me buying a midi keyboard and I’ve been learning Ableton live.

(And messing about with the idea of using a midi input device to control batch jobs)

The plural of anecdote is data. You just need to know that your anecdotes are reasonably trustworthy.

Useful Ableton thing: you can paint out a scale in notes, move those notes to -1 (left arrow key), then fold the scale on them. I like to lower the velocity on the top and bottom of each octave so I always know where they start and stop.
