Sounds like Bob Milne has two brains, or perhaps he’s using left and right side for the same purpose. He’d certainly give so-called AI a run for its money. Remarkable.
Well done with the harmonica and guitar. I’ve seen it done but not tried it myself, mainly because I’m abysmal with a guitar. 🤣 Another guy I’ve seen perform an odd feat was the late, great Jackie Brown, who was obviously listening to some guy playing an electronic keyboard and must have heard a wrong phrase. Jackie walked over to the console, leaned over the back and proceeded to play the piece “upside down” and in the same key, remarking “that’s how it actually goes!” With your discrimination, it seems you might get an extra duty as a tuner. 🤣 73, Alan - G4GNX South Coast UK Elecraft K4D / KPA500 / KAT500 / IC-9700 > On 14 Dec 2023, at 03:01, Wayne Burdick <n...@elecraft.com> wrote: > >> >> On Dec 13, 2023, at 5:58 PM, G4GNX <g4...@g4gnx.com >> <mailto:g4...@g4gnx.com>> wrote: >> >> C’mon Wayne, what’s your take on all of this? > > First, I think Bob Milne (subject of the podcast) is in a class by himself. > He's able to virtually play back the audio of up to 4 symphonies with > different keys and tempos in his head, simultaneously, and when queried at a > random time, report where each of them is in the score +/- one second.
