Getting closer

After the holiday, I am still working with my new audio equipment.

I'm starting to get the hang of things. One one hand, there are some things I wanted to do that I find I cannot do (easily) and I am slowly discovering what can be done.

As for the writing, it is getting there.

More on that soon.

It takes a while

My mixer showed up a few days ago. I picked up a microphone and have been trying to figure things out.

I can record tracks and play them back. Sometimes I am having trouble with playback in Audacity (it sounds like the sound is broken up and has a lot of static). When encode it to mp3 and play it back it sounds fine. Perhaps a problem with the new Leopard driver?

The effects are fun to play with at the moment. I know I'll need to work in the proper amount of reverb and settings to get things to sound right.

Anyway, I'll keep working on it.

It's a start

What is the purpose of this blog? Don't you love when new blogs come out with mission statements? Isn't that the most ludicrous thing you've ever heard? I mean, what could be lamer?

So, here is my mission statement.

1. Track my writing attempts and word count.
2. Articles and such that interest me.

Vague much?
