We had very interesting weather today with beautiful skies. Lots of rain, but only short bursts.

Sounds like almost ideal weather conditions.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-16 12:11
Wow. That is a good one too.
I'm rendering my video as we speak.
Not sure if I will wait until Saturday or Sunday this time.

I'll keep an eye out for it, regardless of when you release it.  I'll be streaming it once it is out.

It was for sure. And I captured some of it

It's ready, just not released.
I might do that tonight.

I see you just released the video - Gentle DAWLess Jam // MC-707 + synthesizers.  I've got it playing on my smart TV.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-17 02:58

Will take some time, but I'll get to the editing part someday soon

Yes, you are quick.
Just pushed the button.
I could not stand waiting longer

PS, so far, the hours are doing great.
Big jump yesterday and small jump today (all in the right direction)

Montfrooij Posted at 5-17 05:06

I'm sure you will.  

I did enjoy the "Gentle DAWLess Jam // MC-707 + synthesizers" video that you released this morning.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-17 05:06
Yes, you are quick.

I got my notification and hit the play button.  

I don't blame you for not holding it out for the weekend.

That's awesome news.  I'm doing my best to help but I'm just one person so you have obviously picked up some more listeners/fans/subs.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-17 11:39
I'm sure you will.

Many thanks!
It is doing quite good for a mid week upload.

I guessed with Ascension Day coming, maybe some more people will be watching YT.

I am sure it makes a difference.
And yes, I'm also sure more people are watching.
I can see that in the stats.
Fortunately.

Montfrooij Posted at 5-17 12:59
Many thanks!

You're very welcome Peter.  I hope the upward trend on that video continues.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-17 12:59

That's right I forgot Ascension day is celebrated on May 18th in the NL.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-17 13:00

I'm super happy for your Peter that your channel is picking up subs and watch time.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-17 13:16
You're very welcome Peter.  I hope the upward trend on that video continues.

Today it was down a bit again. But that (apparently) is how it works after a big jump.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-17 13:19

It depends on certain things. Not always the same date.
I think it is 40 days after Easter.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-17 13:20
I'm super happy for your Peter that your channel is picking up subs and watch time.

Yeah, slowly getting there.
And having fun in the process.

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 02:24

Kind of what I call the Peak and the Valleys.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 02:24

Yep, 40 days after Easter.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 02:25

Having fun along the way is always good.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-18 03:28
Kind of what I call the Peak and the Valleys.

Yes exactly, I'm sure it will go up again tomorrow.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-18 03:29
Yep, 40 days after Easter.

Exactly, so that varies a little every year.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-18 03:30
Having fun along the way is always good.

It better be the main goal (since this is hobby )

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 05:50

I have faith that it will.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 05:50

Exactly.    Looks like the rains here late yesterday evening are long gone as the sky is clear and the sun is making an appearance.  I'm going to get the batteries charged and get the Mini 3 Pro out for a flight in a bit.

Montfrooij Posted at 5-18 05:51

That's a great point Peter.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-19 03:46

Tiny step up.
Not sure how it works.
It does not make a lot of sense, but I'll get there.
That's what matters.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-19 03:47

Ah nice.
We're up for a nice weekend too here.

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-19 03:48
That's a great point Peter.

I have to keep reminding myself of that. Otherwise it will start feeling like work

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-19 03:48
That's a great point Peter.

PS, just recorded a nice relaxed jam again. One that I'm planning to use on drone footage as well.
It probably won't be the next YT hit, but it gave me a lot of fun already during the making.

Montfrooij Posted at 5-19 03:52

No doubt, especially since you are in it for the long haul.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-19 03:52
Ah nice.

That's great to hear.  I think we are all a bit tired of the rain.  I got in a long flight this morning.  However, I got a call from my daughter that a friend of hers had lost her wedding rings in her backyard.  I got out my metal detector and headed over to her house.  Only took me 15 minutes to find them.  That old metal detector has come in quite handy.  I used to use it on the beach more often but the laws keep changing on their use so now it pretty much only gets used on private property.  

Montfrooij Posted at 5-19 03:52

Oh yeah, definitely don't want it to feel like work.

That's what it is all about.  I'll be sure and watch for my notification and give it a play.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 5-19 11:49

And now it's back to the regular 7h per day.
So that is nice.
Should be there soon.

Oh wow, they are probably very happy!
Yeah, it's the same here. Lots of rules around detectiing.
