Jocular ditties with an acoustic guitar, electronic meanderings with portly beats (I never got the hang of phatt ones), occasional widdles and whammy dives.

  • I roll them up, tie them around themselves and put them in a box.

    When the need arises I spend a few minutes swearing profusely while looking for, then untangling, the one I'm after.

  • Hi,

    I watched that video a few days back and drowned in nostalgia, though I was an Amiga chap rather than an ST one.

    Has the SH-32 arrived yet?

    I've had a look at Chapter 8 of the manual, Using the SH-32 with External MIDI Devices, the MIDI Implementation sheet1 and the Sound On Sound review: https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/roland-sh32

    Per the Sound On Sound review:

    Real-Time Control Over MIDI

    The SH32 transmits much of its control panel information in real time, and you can select whether it does so using MIDI continuous controllers or SysEx messages. You can even allocate an ID to the unit so that, if you have multiple SH32s, you can control each of them separately. This is excellent, and allows you to record knob twiddles and other changes in real time, and then recreate the performances using an external sequencer.

    Given the amount of information that can be sent from/received by the SH-32 it could take a lot of setting up in the DAW but there doesn't seem to be much that the DAW couldn't control.

    1 They're both available on the Roland website: https://www.roland.com/uk/support/by_product/sh-32/owners_manuals/

    An old tune revisited.

    Do you know what you were doing at 15.02 on Saturday 25th February 2006?

    Personally, I was recording take 34 of a banjo solo.

    I've a backup on my current laptop of the hard drive from the laptop I was using at the time, including a few Cubase projects.

    I ditched Cubase for Reaper in 2008 so can't open the projects but the raw audio files are in the project folders.

    This is a re-working of a song called Debauchery, using the original recordings of vocals, acoustic bass, 12-string and, yes, banjo, though not they're not all the same takes I used in the 2006 version.

    The drums/percussion and synth parts are new.

    It's not finished yet and, as I've mixed it on headphones, it probably sounds ropey but I'm having fun.

    This is the original 2006 version: https://pmudd.com/debaucherysc

    The Grin Reaper

    Hi,

    I'm Dave.

    According to my registration date on the Reaper forums I've been using Reaper since 2008, initially running in Windows, running in assorted Linux distros for the last decade or so.

    The pun in this post's title is disgracefully clunky but, despite the frustrations and its idiosyncrasies, Reaper has become something of a friend.

    It definitely makes me grin, especially when I'm reminded of the nonsense that people who use other DAWs have to deal with.
