Slowly starting to make music again
Saturday 2 August 2008 – 12:48I’ve been experimenting with a few tracks the last couple of weeks. Nothing worth releasing (yet), but at least there’s *some* progress. I’ve been busy renovating both the master bedroom and the study (where I make music) this summer. I stowed away my old Korg O1/Wfd synth and replaced it with an M-Audio KeyRig 49 keyboard. Much smaller (the O1 is 61 keys and a full fledged synth/workstation) but also somewhat “low budget”. The worst part though, has been getting used to pitch bend/modulation wheels (the O1 has a joystick with pitch bend on the X axis and modulation on the Y axis).
Initially, I had my eyes set on an M-Audio Axiom 49 but a) it’s much more expensive and b) they didn’t have it in stock at the store - and I’m a first class “impulse buyer”. And by the way, c) I probably wouldn’t make any more music with the Axiom than with the KeyRig, so why bother?
Let’s hope I can crank out some tunes soon!
