Listen "2 | Top 10 Tech Tools"
Episode Synopsis
The Mikes compare notes (written on paper) on their favorite technologies for music-making, productivity, and…getting away from technology. But first, what IS technology?
While the Mikes agree that less is more, apps and tools mentioned include:
Transcribe!
Earplugs
Headphones (both noise cancelling and monitor headphones)
Focus/Airplane/Do not disturb mode
Forscore
Mindnode
Notion
Omnigraffle
Scrivener
Dropbox
Text Expander
Keyboard Maestro
Toggl
Magnet
Rhodia Pens
Colored Pencils
Dictation mode
(MikeDrop is not sponsored by any of the above, although they’d like to be!)
Special thanks to the technology EXPERT, Rebecca Moore, for her expert skills and ears. She made us sound the best we could!
