On Hold


Right, I'll keep this short and bitter. I'm angry right now. I'm very annoyed. Everytime I try to follow up a music idea on Cubase, it falls flat on its face. There are a number of reasons for these constant failures. The main one would be that my incredibly amateur method of recording guitar and/or vocal tracks is long, difficult and, ultimately, yields pathetic and rubbish results. Unfortunately, most of my ideas revolve around guitar work and require those guitar sounds to develop properly.

So, I'm putting everything on hold. All of it. Hopefully, in a few weeks, I'll be able to land myself a copy of Windows 7 (f*ck you, Vista!), Pro Tools and something which will allow me to record sodding guitars directly into a sodding project session. I've been trying all summer to work around my problem, and I have got some results (Nine Months On Fire, Grendel - go to the Bandcamp site to find out about that one), but it's not enough to get a blueprint of what I want to create into some demo form.

That's it. Now, I'm going to bugger off and read a book, or something. Goodbye for now, and may your god go with you.
