Welcome to episode #24 of Music Tech for ME. Celemony will be introducing a new music application sometime this coming fall called “Direct Note Access”. This is truly going to be a revolutionary new audio application. You must visit the site and see for yourself what this program will be capable of providing. Also for this week, I did a stroll through a few of the ME Bloggers list over at MusTech.net. I went through the current list and chatted about a few highlights (at least from the ones that caught my attention) from the now “36″ music educators that are now blogging as part of the ME Blogger campaign. I know that Joe is very excited to be over a third of the way to reaching that goal of 100 by the end of this year. Let me know what you think about my take of some of the current ME bloggers. Blessings!
