Did an online jam type thing

 Yeah baby! Made progress by moving out the RD8 and moving in the Virus. I reckon the DRM and DFAM are quite sufficient for my percussive needs, at least for now. Wish I could remember that the bloody camera defaults to microphone on.


Good day (Saturday) some jams and whams and whatnot







Sunday came and not a great deal happened. As the clocks have gone back it's darker sooner (bloody silly if you ask me) and it's also wet and cold. Didn't do any studio stuff but contemplating moving the Memotron from setup 3 and slotting either the 404 or the GR-1. I have a feeling that the GR-1 would be quite a nice thing to stick into the S4 as the V-Synth is maybe not best served by that. I pre-ordered a Behringer Grind - all part of my long-term plan to ditch another modular case as the Plaits could be sold along with its supporting modules. The Grind has MIDI but they cocked up and forgot to give it a 1/4" output. At some point I may look at replacing the System 8 with an UB-XA - assuming it's fast and simple enough. There are things I should sell just to clear out the decks a bit. Have accumulated too much lately and I know the things I really, really like. 

Next week I should have a couple of days properly by myself - Pat taking Broc with her when she goes to Dawn's. Curry will be had and hopefully I'll get my video done. No Tim though as he's gonna be in Scotland working. Still not 100% sure I'll play on the Cirklon setup but suppose I should. 

Colin reminded me of the USB Host port...

So I have an easy route to poly AT already done and dusted, now to try and program some Opsix patches to make use of it. A project for the next few days methinks. 

Pat being away is gonna give me the opportunity to have some fun and make that video. No dog means I needn't leave the studio except to go for a pee or get more beer. Yay!!
