  1. The largest aspect ratio you can capture is dependent on the physical aspect ratio of the sensor in your camera or mobile phone. The vast majority of consumer mobile phones use a sensor that has a 4:3 ratio, so the only way to get a 16:9 image from a sensor that is 4:3 is to crop the image. So yeah you're going to lose information. This isn't any different from how movies are made. What you see in movies isn't the full sensor readout (generally speaking), as you seem to understand. That's why there's such a thing as open matte. Of course with the advent of digital cinema cameras, you can shoot footage with the aspect ratio "baked" into the footage if you wanted to (depending on the physical size of the sensor, as already mentioned, and also workflow preference of the director). Personally I would prefer to capture a full sensor readout and then crop that image in post-production. You don't have a shitty phone camera; you have a perfectly normal and average one.
  2. I've got Goodhertz's Lossy, and AberrantDSP's Digitalis, but MAIM seems worth having since it's free!

  4. Goodhertz make quality plugins, they just released this free utility https://goodhertz.com/loudness/
  5. I got really bored and watched the latest Mission Impossible film. I have no idea how this film has been getting the amount of positive press it's been receiving. The attempts at humour really fall flat and are vastly tonally mismatched from the rest of the film. I also reckon that other films will try to copy the ridiculous action-scene at the end of the film that just doesn't end. I am an old man.
  6. I know of the similarities of the two (and of where they diverge as well), and Max for Live is a massive draw for me too. My main problem with Bitwig Studio is that you only get 12 months of updates from when you purchase, and have to buy a 12 month upgrade plan to get point releases (which they erroneously refer to as "major" updates). There's no concrete information on their site about how much these upgrade plans cost directly from them, which in my opinion is concerning — they should be up front about how much it's going to cost me as a user to get point releases. In BItwig Studio's defence, I really like the CLAP instrument format and its capabilities, but there isn't a huge momentum with it yet. On the other hand, Bitwig Studio doesn't support AU plugins, and I believe that VST3 can still be quite buggy. So it's 6 of one and half a dozen of the other…
  7. I hadn’t used Ableton Live since v4 (I didn’t get along with it then, the workflow an UI just didn’t click with me). I recently played with Bitwig Studio, really liked it, and decided to try Ableton Live 11. I haven’t felt this inspired to make music in years. Now I’m jonesing to get hold of Live 11 Suite, I just gotta sell a kidney first
