Hey there, any #VoiceOver peeps know how to configure a #UniversalAudio Solo/Arrow interface to record my #VO in a #Logic session with a client directing me on a video call? I’ve tried all the videos and articles about routing and virtual channels in #Console but in a recent Meets call, Meets just hijacked my audio so it was really quiet in Logic. Don’t know what I’m doing wrong. If you could explain it like I’m a baby that would be awesome. Don’t wanna use Loopback.

Ok another question for the linux recording crew: What plugin are you you using to map your edrum kits? From what I'm reading EZDrummer seems popular, piping through wine and some other app. Seems kinda nuts there's not a decent native way to do this. Is this really the best solution available? Please note - I'm highly particular about sound quality, as I'm used to working with Addictive Drums and the like. Square robo beats ain't gonna cut it.

I’m watching, from across the Atlantic, old friends struggling with a new reality. My heart aches for those who did not choose and do not wish to enter a new dark ages.

it’s rough and unprofessional, recorded at my desk with a phone, but some #music to express the sadness. Lyrics humbly taken and adapted from Emma Lazurus. The New Collusus

THE DISHES
A music video I threw together yesterday afternoon for a dance-y (did I just say that?) instrumental I made last year as a bit of an experiment. I don't know what my usual *thing* is, but this isn't it, hahaha! The video itself is a number of old vids of mine that I had kicking around (some of which I have posted here) stitched together.

I couldn't get the video size down enough to post it directly on Pixelfed, hence the YT link.

Turn it up and enjoy. Or if it isn't your thing, turn it off and enjoy!

Here's another attempted #coverSong, this one is audio-only, now that I've given up on creating a video for it (I was considering showing two of our dogs play-fighting).
Folk Implosion - Free to Go
Song about growing up with parents breaking up.

More attempted music from Jan 1st.
I sat on it for a while because it's imperfect, but here it is.
Fiona Apple, Daredevil.
Alison sings, I overdub the rest, and I put a pan of water on top of an upturned speaker cabinet and recorded a reflection of a window in it as the song played.
Rhythm is guitar scratch through an echo into a looper.
It's pretty weird.

Well, I think I finished all the recording and mixing a couple of days ago. I need to nip out to the shops but I've got another studio afternoon planned. I'll be listening through everything, making any necessary tweaks, leave it all alone for a bit and do it all again (rinse and repeat). I've also started to think about the artwork.
I really meant to toot and progress since the start of writing last September but never had the wherewithal (spoons)

got a Behringer audio interface - 4 combo inputs. Seems to work on ubuntu on USB power without any drivers. Need another XLR mic cable for the fake SM57.
Seems like inputs 1&3 are right, 2&4 are left.
It has some features I'm not ready for - something like an effects loop for each channel. TRS jack on the back, if you have a splitter cable (and I do - TRS to to TS plugs) one plug is in, the other is out. So I could put an effect pedal on the mic - I'll try that later.
