Digital Music Front

Again with the slackness, and again due mostly to a lack of progress. I have been working on a new track lately and I’m happy with the way its coming along. I’ve been trying to modify my work flow to just put in an hour here and and hour there instead of setting aside whole days as that rarely happens and often I find when I do that I’m just not in the mood anyway. I tried to set aside some days in my calendar to work specifically on my music, but on the first day I ended up having to reinstall Logic because it was crashing on start up, and the second time I just couldn’t really get into the groove. So now I’m trying to take advantage of the mood when it strikes me, even if its only for an hour. So far the results are promising. I still have 2 unfinished tracks which need work but I think I might leave them til my new years holiday to work on again.

My plans to buy a hardware synth have been shelved for the moment mostly due to financial reasons. I have been looking into getting a DIY synth kit just for the sake of learning about how synths work better and having a bit of fun but I don’t know if my solder hand is up to the task, its never been very steady and something requiring fine motor control like a PCB might not be within my capabilities.
