Friday then more

Yeah man, know what I'm sayin?? I ordered an Udo ribbon while moderately stoned but only moderately because I think it will be a good thing, better than shelling out more for the PAT keyboard and it still guessing velocities. Anyway. I should be able to totally ignore that bloody awful bender.  

Uploaded several albums. Probably too many. Today, being Saturday, Tim and I made noises - Synthi and Opsix primarily, sounded good to me at the time. Definitely reckon the Jupiter has a fault and I'll need to butter up Tony to take a look. I also think there could be a dicky knob on the Synthi. Might be nice to have the remainder of the originals replaced. What else? Yesterday it was windy, everyone panicking, well everyone prone to that kind of thing. Meant to ring Harvey but forgot, will do on Monday though as it has definitely been too long. This week's been sorta busy (doing very little) but pleasant. We didn't walk cos it was raining and I'm perfectly happy with that. Went to the pub with Tim instead, all good.






Setup 3 is my current favourite. I could easily see myself putting the piano into it if it could squeeze in somewhere. I guess there are clever stands for cramming stuff these days. The Opsix still delighting me - Tim got some great sounds from it on Saturday, almost like oscillator sync at times. I still think FM has lots more to give. 
Sunday now, mum had been a bit ill and thankfully Lisa took her to the doc's and insisted she did something, now on antibiotics and rallying. No sure what next week has in store, other than the visit of Benji. Looking forward to December being over, as I often am. Apparently there's another PRS soon but this one is rarely a good one for me so I don't expect much. Maybe the Behringer Wave will appear in time for some ho ho ho. Edit: no it won't, according to Andertons. January 15th apparently - may cancel before then, we'll see.

Another Thursday came and went, Pat still struggling with her cold and I took Broc a decent walk, tired myself out a bit but earned a few hours in the studio. Good sesh to hopefully prepare for tomorrow. Found best way to make loops of any length on the S4 - using specific (named in Ck) notes on ch16, working a treat at last. Don't think there's anything left to work out, plus I got a much better explanation of how Density works so I can sit and get the review polished off now. Actually it pretty much is already but I wanted to really nail that looping part, as much for myself as anyone else. 

Will try and do make something cool out of it to play on the livestream thing a week on Saturday.
