  1. And in the same vein...

    Downloaded and installed the Cubase 4.1.0 update. All seems to be well. There's sidechain now, but it's kind of dumb in its implementation, I have to say. And 3rd party devs can't use it until Steinbaha releases the…

  2. Oh, man. I seem to have stepped in shit...

    Oh, that's not shit. It's Logic 8. And it's all over my shoe. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference. If all you fanboys can put your tender feelings aside for a minute, I'll use the opportunity to say that it's…

  3. Paul Raven, RIP...

    One of the bestest members of one of my favoritest bands passed away yesterday from a heat attack. Despite the fact that he briefly played with Prong, the shittiest band in the world fronted by the biggest asshole ever…

  4. Moogerific...

    Picked up a shiny new The Source today from an AI reader in PDX who shall remain nameless, but didn't charge me Moog Tax, I'm pleased to say. Or not really, anyways. This is the third The Source I've owned, and there…

  5. Hmmmm... (Euphonix Whee!)

    Anyone know what Euphonix have up their sleeves? I'd like a "Euphonix for \[my\] personal studio." Yes, I would. I imagine it's something along the lines of the Logic/Mackie Control, only not made by Mackie, and…

  6. ROFLMAO ZOMGBBQWTF? IDK!

    I swear to christ that if I didn't know better (and I do...) I'd think Diamond Dave 103 put this auction up. In case you don't feel like clicking, I'll just quote the auction title to you, and you can laugh and laugh…

  7. Desktop-format Analog Mono-synths...

    I need an analog mono-synth in a desktop form-factor. There are several current models and not-a-few oldies to choose from, and I guess I just need to pick one, man up, and buy the bitch. For new, I'm considering a…

  8. Audio Damage releases Vapor...

    That title never fails to crack me up. Anywho, if you want some Vapor, here's where you can find some. This is the third and final US$29.00 mod effect we'll be releasing. Now it's back to our regularly scheduled…

  9. Another freebie from SSL...

    As you no doubt know, the excellent (and free, natch) Listen Compressor plugin from SSL changed the way we squeeze the life out of our drum buss. We now do it with no bottom whatsoever, where before, we kind of liked a…

  10. Hazarai? WTF?

    Stopped by Old Town Music in Portland yesterday and picked up one of those new Stereo Memory Man w/ Hazarai pedals from EH. Pretty fun little guy, but if you're expecting, well, a stereo Deluxe Memory Man, you're gonna…

  11. Here we go again...

    I've been asked to perform a couple shows as me. That is to say, instead of Micronaut or SMG (obviously, there will be no more SMG shows), to perform my Chris Randall material. When I wrote that particular record (and…

  12. Heh...

    In case you didn't believe me when I said I get these kinds of letters a couple weeks ago, here's a picture-perfect example. I've quoted the letter in its entirety, un-edited in any way, shape, or form. I don't doubt…

  13. Audio Damage update...

    The Audio Damage store now has a Vapor page with a screenshot, audio demos, and marketing bullet points, all meant to entice you to spend your hard-earned cash on something besides hookers and MD 20/20. The Windows…

  14. Oh, you pretty thing...

    Lexicon announced the PCM96 at AES today; there isn't a whole lot of information available, but their press release page has a couple PDFs to drool on, if you're a glutton for punishment. Essentially, it's a PCM91 with…

  15. Formats-R-Us...

    I was reading about the new LIQUID4PRE from Focusrite (note to those self-same guys: CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!!!) and I discovered that, despite the fact that I read Mix cover-to-cover every month, there's…
