Hi Everyone,

These were the questions:

Question 1: Ahmed asked for an analysis of my melody in my latest Community Challenge 

Question 2: Jeff was working on a cool piece by Bach and had questions about practice

Question 3: Tasha wants a comprehensive course on Logic Pro X. 

Question 4: Ray wanted some tips on how to learn a song by ear - we took Ledbetter by Pearl Jam and spent a few minutes with it.

Question 5: Tim is meeting with a friend to record and jam - maybe write music together and maybe work on one of Tim's song. Tim is a bit nervous and wants tips on a) how to prepare/what to expect and b) how to deal with nerves.

Question 6: Halo Hat was looking for good drum software - I recommended something like Native Instruments Drums but I'm sure there are other good ones on the market. Halo Hat was also wondering how I like my M1 Ultra 

Question 7: Kevin was looking for speakers for an FX unit. As a community, we discussed the pros and cons of switching to an audio interface, using an amp as a speaker, using a studio monitor as a speaker, or other options!
