READIN

Jeremy's journal

Decide that you like college life. In your dorm you meet many nice people. Some are smarter than you. And some, you notice, are dumber than you. You will continue, unfortunately, to view the world in exactly these terms for the rest of your life.

— Lorrie Moore

🦋 Not as simple as it looks

Hmm: Turns out once you start worrying about what the music is actually going to sound like, this recording stuff gets exponentially more tricky. I am not going to put any recordings up for a little while yet, until I've (a) really gotten the hang of the software and (b) reacquainted myself a bit more with my guitar. My idea is, guitar and possibly vocals on one take, viola and/or violin dubbed on top of that. The guitar will be better for keeping a beat than a click track. But my fingers are still getting used to the idea.

Note to anyone thinking about putting a small recording studio together: the "Creative Professional E-MU 0202" is not actually that much cheaper than the "Edirol UA-25" when you consider that you will need to buy a phantom power source and extra cords; and its two inputs are not identical like the Edirol's are.
