Now this is well done!

I don't think we are talking being able to keep time, that is a given for any musician playing to be recorded.

What the article is talking about is the teeny tiny imperfections of hitting the notes/drums at the beat (or "grid").

I agree that the imperfections are overfixed to an inhuman level.

Interestingly, there is a "swing" or randomize feature available in some hardware and I guess in every DAW, so if the producers wanted, they would be able to "fix" the notes to a grid, and then add a perfectly calculated random touch to make it sound human.

No way, I just wondered if there is a way to do this myself... Having to type in my password was getting tedious for my lazy self.

Considered to be better by whom? I only heard it is the most astroturfed model out there.

Not only that, I tried the Adobe Reader counterpart and there sooo much things that look botched, eg. OCR.

Note taken. I need to re-do those screenshots anyway, and will bump the contrast on the new ones.

So cool. Black and white printing is a different beast, where you can get away with much less precision and you can produce fantastic results by just eyeing things and winging it. I know a printer who operates like this, gauging the developement by a pair of well trained eyes, and know others who treat their darkroom as a scientific laboratory and do density tests and swear by their DIY chemistry etc.

Lot's of ways to do it, in the end, if you enjoy the process, then all is good.

Many such projects were actually made, some of them are better documented then others. For this application I wanted something that is as off the shelf as possible.

Voice mode… interesting. Not sure about that. Handsfree operation is traditionally done with foot switches in the darkroom. You mean like “hey Siri, expose for 8 seconds”?

Analog photography is a wonderful world and is a great rabbit hole to jump into in this day and age IMHO.

Exactly the reason I went with it, and of course the proper documentation on their website was very useful as well.

Yes. I thought It's fair. Under 50$ for the app and a compatible smart plug vs 300$+ for a boutique hardware enlarger with a narrower feature set.
