Derek Jones was a Notion fan, expert user, and PreSonus advocate who formerly managed the Notion Users Facebook Group. If you ever had a run-in with Derek on-line, it was guaranteed to be positive-we can't even begin to count the number of people in the Notion community who benefitted from his help and patience. If you count yourself among them, please feel welcome and encouraged to say something nice in the comments.
Rest easy, Derek, and thanks for your kind time and attention. You're already missed.
The Notion team are deeply saddened by Derek's passing. He was hugely valued here, indeed all of our users benefited from the improvements and feedback he contributed over the years on top of the direct help he gave to users within the Notion user group he created. The hundreds of members that built up over time became a really supportive and kind online community, aided of course by Derek's patient and positive direction. I remain very grateful for his passion for music making, and for his friendship.
Chris Swaffer
Product Manager, Notion
I am deeply saddened and shocked by the sad news of the death of a very good friend of mine, Derek Jones. He was full of grace, humility, wisdom and knowledge of music. His contribution to music production, notation software development and to the PreSonus testing community was huge and invaluable.
Personally, he was a very good and loyal supporter and friend, whose wisdom and counsel I drew upon deeply. I shall miss him most deeply. But, in mourning, I rejoice in the knowledge that I shall see him again and we will, once again, enjoy lengthy talks about audio production and education.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
