Composer Journal
- - Dave Shot First - -

Dave Shot First is the website of a guy doing an online podcast drama called "The Unbelievable Origin of Superspiff and the Toothpick Kid". He contacted me about some of my Creative Commons music and so the song you hear at the end of each podcast is actually me. His podcast drama is in the super-hero noir genre. The episodes aren't long, so take a listen and see if you like them. They are in order though, so if you don't want to be completely lost, start with #1. You can start with episode 5 though as that's a stand-alone, but you'll want to listen to #1 before continuing with the series.

This has nothing to do about nothing, but I saw it on Dave Lartigue's page.

Here are the rules.

  • Take a picture of yourself right now.

  • Don’t change your clothes, don’t fix your hair…just take a picture.

  • Post that picture with NO editing.

  • Post these instructions with your picture.


So here ya go:

- - My studio is back up and running - -

I should probably just write this in an email to my wife because surely she's the last one visiting my page still. At any rate, I recently got a new computer. It's a 24" iMac and I love it.


So I installed Cubase 4 (which I hadn't touched in half a year) and installed all the updates. W00t. Then I installed some updates to my Firewire 410 audio interface and hooked it up to my Kurzweil PC88MX and it worked. It worked correctly. Right off the bat. Previously I had MIDI issues and I wasn't able to fix it, but apparently a new firmware update to the audio interface was all I needed. And here's the kicker. Each apple iMac comes with an Apple Remote. It's a little remote control mostly used to control volume and playback for movies and such. At any rate, Cubase supports it. So I can sit across the studio at the keyboards and remotely tell the app to start or stop recording. Now THAT is convenient.


Also, in my studio, I've recently added some Roland VDrums which I purchased off of a friend who was moving out of state.

The end result is that it's like falling in love with making music again. Composing again. And if this wasn't enough, Sophia is now taking piano lessons and has been doing her own compositions in Garage Band.


So take notice. I'll be upping my own music as well as that of Sophia soon (for wildly fluctuating values of 'soon').

- - iBand - -

I've always been a fan of hacks and mods. Some of my favourite websites are dedicated to making hardware do things other than originally intended.

Now we have a group of folks using iPhones and a Nintendo DS creating music. They call it iBand and it's worth checking out. It sounds pretty good considering some of the limitations in both software and hardware.
