Truth

“I would hope that if someone only got into music because of bands who were influenced by us, that they would do what I did when I was younger, which is kind of work backwards—look at the bands they were influenced by, and then just keep going back and back … basically go back until you’re listening to the Beatles, and then realize that they were influenced by Little Richard, and then all of a sudden you’re listening to nothing but Django Reinhardt.”

— Matthew Pryor from The Get Up Kids in an interview with PopMatters

Myna: Online Multitrack Software

I’m starting to think that in the future, we may never need to install anything.  All programs will simply be available online.  From anywhere.

Behold Myna (http://aviary.com/tools/myna#), an online, multitrack audio recording program.  It seems like a pretty decent little tool, and the ridiculous dance song that loads as the demo is a lot of fun.   Now I don’t think the future of production lies in flash-based tools, but its an interesting step toward “cloud computing” nonetheless.

Site Updates…

The “About” page now makes a small amount of sense, and a Paypal button has been added to the “Contact” page.

“The two most beautiful words in the English language are Check  Enclosed.”  — Dorothy Parker

And the fifth angel sounded its trumpet…

Introducing Cubase 5:

 – VariAudio (Yamaha developed Melodyne-esque pitch correction)

 – Track Batch Export (Faciliatating the movement to Pro Tools rigs, not that I condone this.)

 – Convolution Reverb 

Those three things alone will bring rainbows, sunshine, and kittens to my life.

Patience…

Updates rolling in soon.
