new music coming soon…”season to season”

Hello everyone,

Last night I sent Davak a new piece to upload. Keep an eye out for it.
He and I are still working out the best way to coordinate these things.
My attempts to send Davak new music to upload has been intermiitant for sure.

The new piece is one I’ve wanted to put here for awhile now and have written about it in earlier posts. The title is “season to season”. This particualr version is stretched out a little and runs just under 7:00. The miracle of pro-tools right?

Thanks for listening,

Stephen A. Thomas

    So, how hard is Pro Tools to learn? Is it the least bit intuitive, or do you have to get a second degree in Computer Science to figure it out? I’d love to hear more about your process, what you’re learning…

    Jeff,

    Pro-tools reminds me of the time I took up bass. Initially easy to get around on. But then you listen to others who really know how to play bass and understand how deep an instrument it really is.

    The basics are simple. If you’ve come in contact with a 4 track you can work pro-tools. In fact the program I was using before seems more arcane than protools. Some people don’t like the way it sounds but non-the less, protools is an industry standard, I guess.

    I’m still practicing, and am getting better at it I suppose. Better than where I was 3 weeks ago.

    I guess the big thing about this DAW is the keyboard shortcuts to move effeiciently as possible. It really is about efficiency. And organizatioin. Consistent file names and stuff.

    So to use protools as a multitrack recorder, and editor, you’re there man.

    The effects and the routing, the midi & file conversion stuff is the next step.

    Then I guess integrating all of it to any other studio sputnik equipment is the step after that.
