No mixing is a good idea..it just waters down the whiskey.

-well whiskey
da bestest.
went a whole month without drinking any and I finally have an appointment for the truck. AND a bottle of canada's best (or worst, depending)

Still need a new keyboard. I probably shouldn't have re-learned piano on a minikeys keyboard but what the heck. Limits my choices!

The 'key' (snicker) is it has to be a small keyboard and 37 keys are about right for most my crap playing.
-off to search the interwebbies.

Well I just got back from my holiday. Boy have you lot been busy while I was away Shocked

Must find time to have a look at those files james worked on.

Things are still a bit disorganised for me. It didn't help when my office 'pooter went bang as soon as I switched it on Angry
So I'm working entirely from my music one at the moment (which I really don't like doing)

The holiday was great Smiley The computer woes since are erm, also great Sad

First the PSU in my office machine died, so I used the music one for e-mail and web browsing for a while.

Eventually got a new PSU (it's one of those slimline ones). The office 'pooter ran fine for a couple of days then started doing very strange things. At random it would run v e r y  s l o w l y, then pick up again. Thought it was maybe a memory problem and changed that out which seemed to make a slight improvement, but not much.

Then I started to get disk errors (on a 2 year old sata drive) and almost every time I switched the machine on, it would go though a forced disk recovery routine. Finally it wouldn't even get past the login screen Huh

Temporarily hooking the disk into my music machine, lo & behold it booted up perfectly. Stuck the supposedly faulty memory in there and that behaved perfectly too, so it looks like the earlier PSU failure damaged the motherboard.

Just to make things interesting my only spare machine doesn't have sata capability, so I had deep joy using my music machine to transfer all the important files to dvd, doing a fresh install on the old machine then copying the data to it and configuring everything to my usual style. Finally restoring my music machine to it's normal state.

That all took large chunks of the weekend Sad

Now what were we saying about percentage of time actually making music Roll Eyes

Well, its been a big fat 0 for me!  Sorry to hear of your troubles. I'm finally back up on the internet (on the second pooter), but setting up a DAW from scratch has been a dreadful experience. All under control now I think, (don't ask Roll Eyes ) but a long way still to go. I think its going to be really nice when its done and ready to go.

In case anyone is interested, I'll be going to the Linux Audio Conference in Cologne on Friday 29th. It actually starts on Thursday, but I could only grab one day off work. However it carries on till Sunday Smiley

This has been running for a couple of years now, but I've never been before. There are several concerts, sound exhibitions and papers & workshops. One bit that particularly grabbed my attention is 'AMBI@Home'. This is apparently a paper on setting up ambisonic listening with only simple cheap kit and all the control being done in software.

I like the old city anyway, so even if this all turns out not to be my 'thing' I'll enjoy the weekend!

More info is at http://lac.linuxaudio.org/

I thought there was a knob on the TV to increase the programme intelligence Huh

There's one marked 'Brightness' but it doesn't seem to work Roll Eyes

I downloaded TJ-Baby (1995) yesterday but didn't have time to really listen or comment. I was going to comment today but it's disappeared (or is doing a good camouflage (job) Huh
