Excel. I just love it and always make really useless but nonetheless quite clever spreadsheets that I then ignore almost entirely. But it makes me happy just playing around with it.

Omnishere- possibly the best software synthesiser ever (actually to call it a just synthesiser is to do it a grave injustice)

Did you chuck the Pentax K1000 in just to bring the average cost down?

I'd like to sell/get rid of the EM-5, the Mamiya 645 and the 5D. I'm kinda over digital, but if I could swap the EM-1 for the M10 I would happily do so.
Large format is going to be the next adventure.

The K1000 was my very first camera when I was a kid. It got stolen out of my car when I was a teenager, so I'm kinda keen to get one for nostalgia's sake.
The Zeiss Ikon cost me £35 and the two Rollei 35s were £100 each. I think the AE-1 was about that too.
The 5D and the OM-D EM-1 were the only really expensive ones, followed by the M3.

People who "enjoy" Excel are to be viewed with suspicion Teclis!
Right now mine is AUM.
Cheradenine Zakalwe28: what kind of music do you produce?
Fluffy, I was thinking about getting Scrivener for the iPad: do you find it helps you to write more productively?

excel can be quite elegant once you get going.
Scrivener has a massive learning curve and I’m still not sure is worth it. I wouldn’t like the app only version, and the syncing between app and computer is cumbersome.

Excel runs the world m6, it's the best.
My current worst piece of software would be the fvcking incomprehensible BBC Sounds app.

Another Excel user here. My job revolved around it (non-fee earning Partner).
Otherwise, I'm learning R at the moment, and am having some fun with R Studio. It's pretty cool. (for, like, certain values of cool, obvs).
Emusic tag editor is great for sorting my MP3 collection tags.
MKVToolnix GUI is an absolute godsend for trimming your pron collection: get rid of the useless bits (talking, credits, etc) to save max space on your grot drive, and cram in as much filth as you can.
Cyberduck FTP has replaced Terrapin for me, seeing as Terrapin support died around Windows 98.

I run it through Cubase - whilst I play keyboards v badly, I mainly play guitar and a little bit of bass (also badly). I usually use Omnisphere alongside Steinberg's Grand 3 and rely on "live" drum loop packages like Drums on Demand.

"Scrivener has a massive learning curve and I’m still not sure is worth it."
I had the idea (not sure from where) that it was intuitive and interesting to use, but I just checked and the manual runs to 900 pages: nein danke.

Tim Ferriss was talking about Scrivener this week on his podcast and reckons that you can ignore 90% of the functionality and just use the basics without too much trouble.

Scrivener is like an onion...
...very easy to get going and organise chapters, sections and research documents.
If you want to do more complex things then you can.

Some research a few years back calculated that 95% ish of excel users only actively use about 5%ish of its functionality.

I suspect there’s a reason that scrivener isn’t able to call on any heavyweight endorsements.

I have to be honest, I struggled with Scrivener. I'll use it for my second novel.

I would have said Excel, but then I discovered R, and never looked back.
I still used Excel for coloring cells in to highlight errors, but in terms of data scrubbing, R is exceptional.
Tableau is fun to waste frustrating hours on. WHAT DO YOU MEAN IS IT A MEASURE OR A DIMENSION? JUST DRAW THE SODDING GRAPH, ALLAH DAMN YOU.
Tablacus is a good windows add on.

eMusic Tag Editor for going total anal on your music meta data
Allway Sync for backing up, etc.
Cyberduck for FTP
Renamer for block renaming

Mathematica was interesting. I used to use it for graphing 3-D pricing models. Change a variable and see how it alters things.

Might have to look into Power BI. Alright, is it? See a lot of job openings mentioning it.
Um.

If you worked at Clifford Chance in the early 1990s Old Man of Hoy, you'd have seen my pricing models using Mathematica.
Other firms didn't know what the hell we were up to. Which was the intention.
