Big weekβ¦
My wife has been using iPad with forScore app to not only practice, but *during* orchestra performances where she's the principal flute! Bluetooth foot pedal too, clip in my iPad Air review video:
πΊ I've been an iPad Pro guy for a long time, but the new iPad Air with M4 is an interesting middle ground between power and compromise. Here's how to choose between Air and Pro! youtu.be/xHDKNcVOxiE

Upgrading *a few* things this weekβ¦the first in the chain:
πΊ The new Sony earbuds beat AirPods Pro 3 in sound quality AND noise cancelling, but are they better enough to beat the Apple ecosystem? New review is up! youtu.be/It7rp3HIZHo?...
Finally built a ChatGPT API call Shortcut to use in *other* Shortcuts, so I can dictate the model (like the new 5.4) and not depend on third party actions.
Shared just now at shortcut dot bot!
Also, new video tomorrow as seen here. Members of my community get ad-free videos tooπ§

Who MacBook Neo is for, why I bought a Studio Display XDR, did Apple really "raise prices," and more.

Nice, ok got an HDMI to DisplayPort adapter (with USB thingy) and a DisplayPort to USB-C cable.
So, I ordered a Studio Display XDR and Iβd love to repurpose my old SD as a multiview and get this BenQ out of the studio.
Has anyone successfully gotten an HDMI video signal INTO a Studio Display??
If someone is a regular user of Resolve or Premiere, I would think surely they know what theyβre buying

If you had to use only 1 Apple device to get your work done, would you choose a $599 Neo, or a maxed-out, M5, 16GB RAM, 1TBβ¦

πΊ I break down the new MacBook Neo and compare all the differences to MacBook Air right here! youtu.be/85I2pEwEQ6M?...

- 512GB with Touch ID ($699)
Choose storage + color, and that's it! A18 Pro chip, 8GB Memory, 13" display, 2x USB-C ports + headphone jack.
MacBook Neo is real! Starts at $599 and comes in real colors. More details soon...
πΊ So many things released, had to do a video! Catch up on all the M5 releases so far, and convince me not to buy a new Studio Display XDR in the comments: youtu.be/EJj_X8_e9yM
Heh? Apple has never paid me for anything
Bet you I'm 9% of that 10% using Apple Intelligence in Shortcuts π
Apple released new Spring color accessories today too! I would've jumped on the Guava color, but they didn't make it available for Solo Loops π«

Pretty similar to M3 iPad Air, but now with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, 30% faster and 12GB Unified Memory. $599 for 11" $799 for 13" starts at 128GB storage.
