You thought Microsoft would never discover music right?
Well guess what... not only did the M-machine become aware of the existence of music they have also launched their own music production software and it's (in my opinion) bound to eradicate, banish, erase, pulverize Logic Studio from the pages of history and the collective memory.
Eh... well no, it would more probably be something to compete against GarageBand as a composition scratchpad/aide.
What... you don't believe me? Here it is, take that Garage Band! (Hey is that a MacBook?)
I'm so switching back to Windows after this...
Ok I'm being sarcastic, but hey... I would love to see more competition against Logic Studio / GarageBand (on all levels and fronts) so Apple would remain perennially forced to innovate.
Nice work Microsoft research, couple that with better marketing and you have a winner.

Oh my gay.
ReplyDeleteThis made me cringe! :)
ReplyDeleteNote to microsoft. Apple didnt come to dominate the Audio Production industry by being totally gay.
ReplyDeleteyeah I agree,
ReplyDeletethis program is really bad,
I'm not interested in the least
HAHAHAHAHHAAAAAA!!!!!
ReplyDeletethat's gotta be the weakest thing i have ever seen!
yet one more reason to never run Microsoft products!
lol, it's the Zune of audio software!
It's the killer application of the year!
ReplyDeleteOh My... this has to be the WORST introduction-to-software video I've ever seen. It was EMBARRASSING. How on EARTH could Microsoft have even released it. I love my Macs.....
ReplyDeleteI thought this to be a joke, but it's not. Joke's on Microsoft.
ReplyDeleteThis is why Sesame Street failed as an ad agency.
ReplyDeleteWTF
ReplyDeleteA disasterpiece like this could only come from Microsoft.
ReplyDeleteoh my god is this actually really, cause its the gayest thing i have ever heard and a total embarrassment to watch aha.

the girl and father seem to be running windows on a macbook pro
ReplyDeletehahaha, watch out Logic Studio!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat the heck. It looks like you would outgrow this by the time you got to high school.
ReplyDeleteVomit-inducing. On the bright side, there's probably one less ad agency to darken a troubled world.
ReplyDeleteMS should stick to what it does best, like ruining Ray Ozzie's career and giving Steve Ballmer the chance to get out of the group home once in a while.
Isn't the computer the girl is using in the beginning a MacBook Pro with a sticker stuck over the Apple Logo?
ReplyDeleteohhhhh ho HO HO HO HHOOOOOMG THat was so crap. Worst song and it just makes the software looks crap
ReplyDeleteLeaving the M$-bashing aside, this sort of Band-in-a-Box with pitch regonition input could be a big hit with the Miley Cyrus audience. And that's a BIG market!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how it gets on with input NOT in time and in tune though? That's what it will mostly get I'm afraid!
Yeah, of course, all the logic users started to attack microsoft, its really easy to attack an idea..thats what has been done in the past as well, people were killed over new thoughts..Well, I have news for you, this product is not targeted against logic or even garageband, its a FUN application for those who doesn't know about music production. Grow up, and stop bashing innovation, not everything has to be aimed towards professional users, think just a little bit before you bash something..
ReplyDeleteshut up. it's still a piece of crap and you know it. besides, that girl is definitely using a MacBook Pro, you can see the apple stem sticking out from under that gay sticker in the middle. you'd think microsoft could at least use their own hardware.
ReplyDeleteHA! Microsoft can't even use one of their own computers for this app! Lame.
ReplyDeleteMicrosoft doesn't manufacture computers.
ReplyDeleteWhat's with all of the gay-bashing in this thread? You folks desperate to have something, anything else to disparage because you are so feeble?
ReplyDeletewhat the hell... this is retarded
ReplyDeletemicrosoft is so microsoft.
ReplyDeletealso lold.
macbooks is so macbook too.
Barf. Just Barf. I can't really sum up my reaction to this video with ANY other term, really , no I mean REALLY!!!
ReplyDeletePitch recognition, cool, genre selection, yeah cool, but the actual tracks sound like the worst Band-In-The-Box backing from 12 years ago!!
Some-one clever once said "A camel is a horse designed by a committee", Microsoft you have WAY too many committees!!!!
Crappity, crap crap.
ReplyDeleteHearing this little mistkroete singing makes you believe Dakota Fanning screaming sounds like an overtire. Maybe someone should unplug the dongle from the d-d-dads arse so that he can shoot himself. "Sometimes it's dark..." down there i a lonely Microsoft cellar room in Redmond..."But you still need to get dry..." yes, you boozy bastards down there, try to get dry before writing such doody...
ReplyDeleteFinally, something to help me write awesome love songs and get my groove on! Wow. Is it just me, or did all the accompaniments sound almost exactly the same?
ReplyDeleteWell the idea is a solid one. They show that the program can run on multiple platform (mac and windows (the indian guy singing jazzy)).
ReplyDelete- Someone said that people that make music for a living, use garage-band or some other product? Is this really true?
I could only wath half as it was sooooooo bad!
ReplyDeletet
This isn't gay. You know what's gay? Two men having sex!
ReplyDeleteThis ad sucks the sweat off of a dead man's balls. Apple has nothing to worry about.
ReplyDelete...Can garageband do the sing into it thing?
ReplyDeleteIt's microsoft.
but that feature is cool.
If it can do Grindcore/Deathcore beats I'm all in
ReplyDeletethis shit is real?
ReplyDeleteoh my god is this actually really, cause its the gayest thing i have ever heard and a total embarrassment to watch aha.
