  1. Adrian Utley from #Portishead talks to Recording The Masters about why he appreciates recording to tape (and #cassette in particular) vs. a DAW. At the end he also demonstrates some #Mellotron -style tape loops on a Yamaha MT4X 4-track cassette recorder.

  2. Anybody have any thoughts on a USB audio interface? Windows no longer sees my Akia EIE and #Cakewalk doesn't like ASIO4All and it won't pick up the MIDI either so I think a new interface is required - 2 in/ 2 out minimum and I'm running everything through a 4 bus desk.

  3. Hi, I (Allēna) am back in front and low-key panicking…

    I know that the people who know me will probably be like “what else is new” but I’ve honestly been so hung up on the fact that it’s been ten years since Xavier died this month that I forgot that all of the albums that I wrote and recorded in the wake of losing him will also be turning 10 as well until I saw a video of my Painter Guy headmate playing my arrangement of “Heroes” by David Bowie on a piano he found in the hospital we go to??? So that’s kinda fucking me up.

    I honestly didn’t think I would live this long. I know a lot of people when I was 18-19 certainly didn’t think I would live this long (I was a hot fuckin mess and it took me years to get out of that tailspin) so while I’m none too happy about having to figure out how to promote a metric fuckton of albums on what is soon to be the ten year anniversary of their release, I am also trying to be compassionate toward tiny grieving past Lēna and keep in mind that I didn’t have a blessed clue that I would live to see 28-29, my depression was so goddamn bad and I was constantly trying to blot myself off the face of the Earth and writing albums instead of doing worse dumb shit. As badly as I want to go back and kick Past Lēna and to some extent, Past Eight in the ‘nads for writing and recording music like they were running out of time in 2016-17, they really didn’t know what the fuck else to do and had just lost Xavier. So I can’t really be all that angry. That being said, a bitch is fucking tired and I don’t have anything close to a promotion strategy for any of this shit. I don’t even have regular access to a piano anymore.

    So yeah. There is all of that to contend with.

    Wish me mother fucking luck.

    -Allēna

  4. Hello #fediverse who among you is using #ubuntustudio ? Or another music recording friendly #distro .

    Looking for advise, tips for #MultiTrack band rehearsal recording and #preproduction

    How is the driver support? Will i be able to install a #Tascam US18x8 #AudioInterface ?

    Is 32bit float a hype or the way to go?

    Thinking of using #Bandlab so everyone can access the tracks from home. That worked with previous phone recording during Covid.

  5. Music Day 12: Some days or weeks lately end kind of like "What the Funk?"...a funky rocker for a funky Friday!

    I lost count of all the tracks and layers of guitar on this song, it was pretty fun to put together! I even tried to emulate "Wtf" with a wah-wah at around 2:50 into the video

    Cheers and happy weekend!

  6. Source of the #voice #sample is a cassette recording of a tarot/astrology reading I got at a thrift store. #FoundSound FTW. The #DrumLoop is one I had kicking around forever, recording #VolcaDrum onto a cassette and fucking with the speed. That's pretty much the #gear used.

  7. There's also a collection of the weirder sounds a #Korg #VolcaDrum makes in here -- all manner of weird squidges, burbles and blaps. Those and the Alpha Juno stuff came during the production phase, on the respective #InstrumentDays. The rest of this is all samples, some treated by the #Morphagene.
