NMIBN Vol.5 Has arrived!!!

11/8/2024 Our post-election edition of NMIBN (No Muse Is Bad News) Vol. 5 features two songs performed by Bob Sellon that were written by Pete Ham of the band Badfinger at the 2015 No Muse Is Bad News Spring Music Series: "Take It All" and "The Name Of The Game". These are a couple of songs from the Badfinger album Straight Up that worked pretty well with just piano and voice, though I couldn`t resist adding an acoustic guitar to The Name Of The Game to fill it out a bit. I`ll reserve comment on my "folk" piano stylings but I really like the lead vocals which was, really, why I included them in the collection." - Bob

StecTools - Sound-pads

Our new Sound-pads panel provides large buttons that play drum and other percussion sounds when touched/clicked.

The StecTools Sound-pads

The sounds are loudest near the middle and are responsive enough to be used in a musical context on touch devices. You can adjust the size of the pads and pick which of the 45+ sounds to use (all of the sounds are shown by default) and adjust the reverb level and overall volume levels. Your settings changes are saved in the storage in your browser so it always comes back the way you left it if you reload the page later.

StecTools - Online Metronome

Our Metronome panel provides a musical timing reference that allows you to select or tap a tempo, select the sound to use for the click, set the reverb level and set a title then recall it later.

The ST Metronome

Check out Bob Sellon`s ST Metronome article for more information or go directly to the metronome here.

Online Tone Generator

Generate pure audio sinewaves, square waves, triangle and sawtooth waveforms with our tone generator (oscillator) panel.

The Stec Records Web-Oscillator

This web-based tone generator can create sine waves (tones), square waves, triangle waves and saw-tooth waves at frequencies from 20Hz to 20kHz.

Sine waves are typically used for audio testing since their smooth nature makes distortion easier to pick out with your ears and with test equipment.

An example would be to feed it into your guitar amp and see if you hear distortion on clean settings. Same for PAs if you think a speaker is blown.

StecTools - Keyboard Tools

Our Keyboard Tool panel helps you learn modal scales by playing them through your computer speakers, showing them on a musical staff and showing them on a virtual piano keyboard.

The Stec Records Keyboard Tools thumbnail

On web browsers that support MIDI, the panel also allows you to connect to instruments and see the notes appear on the staff and piano keys but a "MIDI Monitor" panel is also provided that shows the exact MIDI data coming and lets you save the data to a generic MIDI file. The panel also includes a cheesy bubble machine [panel] that creates bubbles for each incoming MIDI note.

StecTools - QuickList

Our QuickList panel is a simple web page for creating set lists with notes for each song.

The StecTools QuickList

Colors, fonts and some of the dimensions can be saved on a per-list basis. Visit Bob Sellon`s software page for more details.

Budget Calculator

Billerica, MA USA

Update - Our Budget Calculator got a facelift and a feature upgrade with quantities now available for Income items letting you see how ticket prices vs number of tickets sold affects your bottom line. We also added button to show a text version of the budget suitable for cutting-and-pasting and made adjustments to the example musician rates (still probably below the poverty level).

The Stec Records Budget Calculator

Clara Clock

The "ClaraClock.com" shows the current day of the week, date and time in large, easy to read fonts.

Example: Click to open the Clara Clock page

"My late mother, who was in her late 80s at the time, asked me if I could get her a clock with large letters that she could easily see from across the room. I looked around and didn't find anything that great so instead, I created a "clock" web page for her and set it up on an old computer in her living room where she could see it. While still simple, I did add the option to change the colors and an optional text message at the bottom. i.e. Happy Birthday. I hope you enjoy it as much as she did." - Bob Sellon

Note that the Clara Clock is alaso available at "ClaraClock.com".
