Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Well John your initial dose of meds are probably wearing off about now so don't be afraid to use those back-ups. I hope you are doing well.

Heal well.

Later

Greetings, folks -

I just wanted to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for all the well-wishes I received. My surgery was successful. The doc took some bone from my hip to fashion into a replacement disc, and then replaced my C4/C5 disk in my neck. He goes in through the front (which seems counter-intuitive), but that way they minimize risk of nicking the spinal cord (I'm not sure which notes actually make up the spinal cord...)

Since I had the same thing done on C5/C6 and C6/C7 last year, I now will have two scars on my throat from the surgeries. My doc is good about cutting in the natural crease of the neck so as to minimize the scar's appearance.

I'm home on a bunch of pain drugs, but for the pain of the surgery itself. I'll be working remotely from home for several weeks before I actually go back into the office (I'm blessed that they let me do that). I have to wear my cervical collar for 6 weeks. I've got a doctor's appointment this afternoon, so hopefully he can tell me when I can have a shower rather than sponge bath.

Again, thanks so much for all the well wishes.

Welcome back and thank God everything went ok!

I’m not quite sure but I think that the spinal chord is a combination of the C2 and C4 chords

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Awesome.

At least your bone wasn't taken to create yet another sex.

You know what happened when Adam gave up his rib bone...

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
