S O N A R

I have upgraded my studio to SONAR, Cakewalk's audio/midi recording software. I had been using Cakewalk's older version PRO AUDIO 8 for years. It always seemed adaquate for me. But recently I started having problems with it, and was dissatified with it's performance, so I decided it was time.

My new Sonar is actually a lesser version of the current pro version, but it contains all my old version had and more. Besides the usual learning curve, it is turning out to be a wise decision on my part. So, now I think I'm wise ?? HARDLY... because actually, the software is similar enough to make the transition tolerable.

I have put a couple of samples of it's superior sound on my free mp3s page. Soon I will have many new tunes to share and give away, for free music is an eagle that flys unencumbered high in the sky.

 

peace,

SITE MAKEOVER

I can hear it now.....Oh my gawd, what did you do to your site ! It looks like the the basement wall of some pre-teen zygoat. And what's with the fake books ? Do they have any purpose other than looking like bad clickart ? Well kiddeez, maybe....
or maybe not....I just got tired of the old one and it was getting a bit glutted up so this was my attempt to streamline things. Maybe next week I'll change the whole thing again , who knows ? I hope any repeat visitor will enjoy the upgrade and I welcome anyone new to the zoo.
peace,

HOLES IN FABRIC CREATE DRAFTY NEWS

What I've come to realize as a one-man-production is there will always be holes. Holes that never get filled because my poor ole brain can only handle so much info at a time. I'll never end up like those unfortunate geniuses who enter skitzovania well before their retirement years

. Where was I ?....oh yeah, I tend to forget to follow through on minor details like this news. I often wonder if anyone even views it. Regardless, I enter this as an explaination of my solo plight (flight?) and move on without a worry ( ignorance is bliss).

When I return perhaps I'll have some actual news, but until that time....

peace,
