A Little More Vapor...
Adam tightened up the DSP today, and we're definitely in the ballpark now. Just some tidying up to do, and I'll spend the weekend rendering the UI, and perhaps you'll be able to buy Vapor in the not-too-distant future…

Hmmmm....
I was pondering the idea of playing a few live "shows" once I'm done with the latest Micronaut album, which will be a few weeks, and possibly dragging my boy Bounte along with me. If you live in Seattle, PDX, or San…

Rococco...
T-shirts, and lots of 'em. Gonna be a little while before they're up in the store, for two reasons. (1) We have a lot of freebies to send out first, and (2) I'm really fucking stupid when it comes to the USPS, and my…

Three of 'em...
I'm working on a full-page ad for the upcoming Computer Music Special Issue which will feature all three of the mod effects. Here's a test render (obviously not the finished product; I'm working on the lighting right…

It Came From The Depths Of eBay...
Yeah, I don't have any idea what this dude was thinking, either. What I really don't know is what the guy that actually bid $3500 on this has going through his head. The auction is here, but don't expect to learn…

Audio Damage update...
Spent the day twiddling my thumbs while test-rendering the UI for Vapor, the third and final effect in our Series Of Three Mod Effects For $29.00 Each. Just a couple little things to touch up and and what-not, and I'll…

Time for a bib...
Sorry for not posting yesterday, but I went to the dentist in the morning, and he provided me with, among other things, a nice big bottle of Vicodin, ostensibly to numb the blinding pain that is taking over the left…

Soniccouture Hang Drum mini-review...
Got a copy of the Hang Drum library Soniccouture released a few days ago. For those of you not in the know, the hang drum is an instrument made by some Swiss hippies, sort of a cross between a steel drum and a tabla…

Logic 8 First Impressions...
Just nosing around Logic 8 this morning. My initial impressions are extremely favorable. I'll have to spend some time with it to see if they actually fixed/unfixed the things that have always bothered me about it. It is…

One of those days...
Man, I can't catch a break today. It started when I whacked my head against our brick fireplace trying to catch Pablo (leaving not only a bump, but a scrape) and has generally gone downhill from there. Everything piece…

Time Waster Maximus...
Personally, my work day consists of waking up, applying the necessary doses of nicotine and caffeine to get my motor running, then walking the 15-odd feet from my couch to my office. The point being that I'm not…

How To Not Win Friends, Part 1
Something that comes down the pipe at AD HQ quite frequently are letters from woefully misguided companies (usually magazines) that want to "partner" with us. Usually that partnership involves them spending our money…

Still hoping, dreaming, praying...
I'm still looking for someone to take this Evolver off my hands. I'd like another mono synth, please. I'll gladly add cash to the deal. Or buy your mono synth if someone wants to buy this off me. No reasonable offer…

The Zen Of Nodes...
Yoiks. An instructional DVD (volume 2, natch...) for "teaching the art of screaming to metal singers." I guess it's for sale on the Alfred site but I couldn't be bothered to hunt the actual product page down. Suffice to…

Soniccouture mini-review...
Obviously, I'm not in the business of writing reviews, and you can find all kinds of learned people without any axes to grind that have waxed poetic on any number of products. No, you come here for opinions, not…
