I'm working on elite roof traps which should fights against snoring and other usual sounds during session.

link to video

Ok. I know it's been a while. I've been super busy lately. But I managed to remember to run some video at a recent quick session.

The other day a client brought in a bass player to track on one of his songs. The player, Mike Phillips of the band Four Finger Five had no objection to my filming him. Although my skill at videography is no better than that of an infant I managed to capture him doing a take. And I was able to figure out how to drag the sound file and lay it over the video with a certain degree of success.

Keep in mind that the song is not finished so the soundtrack is a rough edit. And hopefully the poor camera work won't do permanent harm to your visual sensory organs. I do hope to do more of this kind of thing and with any luck the videos will improve. Also keep in mind that the primary goal is to track audio and working by myself makes it difficult to even remember to take photos for the scrapbook, let alone record video with any success.

Then in 2005, I got rid of a lot of stuff, ie, she didn't bother to tell me she forgot her to take her pill.. got him! Best mistake of my life. He's almost 7 and im going to expose him to the creative process very soon..

Image

After purchasing a Mackie Control and 2 extenders, one of the extenders malfunctioned and Mackie actually sent me a control extender that said C4 on the LCD! I asked nicely for a C4 instead of the replacement extender they sent and they were very accommodating, and admittedly embarrassed at their mistake. Not a bad deal, the C4 made for a great nightlight!


This is what im workin with now.. and as much as I love gear, I have never been more productive and content. You can overwhelm yourself and find you never have the time to master any one piece. The Machine Drum and the RM1X are the only two pieces I have owned that I can say I knew that well.. You don't NEED an Andromeda.. It's 3k! You can buy ALOT of Mcdoubles with that kinda cash! Save your money, It's sick, but not worth 3k.. And really, give me logic, a controller, 2 turn tables and a mixer, and i'll have a blast! http://www.youtube.com/user/hookedonhydro :P

Isn't that what Interior Designers call a contrast? - suppose you can achieve them with wall colors, fabrics and pictures - see Sarah's House for more details....
