Hey Adam. What's up? What do you like better? Vertical or horizontal? I prefer lateral.

Ooh, you're entering the third dimension.

I'm Adam Maness.

And I'm Peter Martin.

And you're listening to the You'll Hear a podcast.

Too charming guys.

Giving you some daily jazz advice.

Coming at you.

Let's not oversell it.

Well, now that we're back together in the pod cave on the podcast, I'm feeling good. Dude, I can't see andrew we get a new microphone or what this is crazy yeah speaking of vertical you've got quite a vertical what's up with that i don't like it it's a great sounding mic but it's it's not a great podcasting mike i think but you know i'll deal we'll have the uh the sure black back soon right uh hey so exciting news i heard yeah we have a new sponsor that you'll hear it podcast. I'm very excited about this. It's something that we use every day. Every day. Er day, as we say in St. And it's something that helps us present our lessons, something that's helped me learn about jazz by helping me transcribe.

And it's called SoundSlic.

And if you haven't heard of SoundSlices, you can go to SoundSlic.com right now and check it out.

It's pretty awesome.

And I think actually there might be eventually our own page on SoundSlice that people can check out.

But so if you haven't seen SoundSlice before, we use it on almost all of our courses.

I mean, a lot of our courses now use SoundSlice to show the notation.

We transcribe a lot of our lessons and then we put the video in SoundSlice. And as you're watching the video, a notation of the transcription actually follows along in the video. So you're seeing what the player is playing as they're playing it. And then you can navigate within the notation. You could see exactly what's going on. You could slow it down without losing pitch. You can loop things just by clicking and dragging. It's beautiful. No, it's amazing. I mean, it's next level for exactly what we're trying to do with Open Studio. And, you know, we're making it sound way more complicated than it is. You just have to go there. Go to SoundSlice.com or OpenStudio Network.com and see it in action because it's exactly, you have the notation and you have the video and they always

stay together audio video and notation and it seems like it would be crazy and everything but it's

just beautifully laid out and you know adrian and his team there are just geniuses they're musicians

and their their coders as well but they um they come from this place of you know the concept of

a transcription can never

communicate all the subtleties of music and everything.
