Redid the audio wiring in my setup to get rid of some redundant runs, reduce the overall number of connections, and swap some balanced runs for single ended in my effects send.
Not only is it more reliable, there’s less noise now too. Even fixed the ground issues I was having somewhere without having to spend any money.
Only downside was that was my entire night…

Figuratively sharpening the saw all night makes it super effective in the future though, right?
I’m a bit of a clean freak, you’re making me drool lol 
I’m always shuffling things around to create the most optimal setup with what I’ve got, and when it costs me like no money it’s even better.

Dug up and transferred my last two omnichord music projects (the last stuff I was slowly working on before my computer crashed almost six years ago) to my new laptop.
The good news is that I had barely started on them besides just raw audio (omnichord, sax, vocals) and some basic drums, so I’m not getting a bunch of missing VST’s and audio effects, etc.
I also have the omnichord used to make the original songs on loan so I can figure out what I did with it the first time and also use it to rerecors a song I always wanted to speed up by about 5 bpm.
your approach to music is interesting, as always. i’ve never used an omnichord. i’m sure i’d enjoy it and find good use in it. there was some artist I listened to a looooong time ago that made an album with one but the memory is very dim. i’d have to ask my friend Ash because she was more into it than i was.
also, i’m so happy you & i finally have music on an album together
also plustwo, do you mean to say that you didn’t have a computer other than your phone for six years? that’s crazy.

Recorded a piece of guitar practice at a small cathedral I wandered into today. The acoustics were amazing and I’ll be comparing reverbs to this now (in some cases). France is neat-o.

had a lightning storm today and the wind gust ripped a giant branch off our 25 meter/75 foot tree in our backyard, ripping the internet coax or whatever out of the telephone pole. just spent the last 4 hours making sure none of the power lines were downed too (just missed them – we got LUCKY) and that we weren’t dealing with a hazardous livewire situation because that would have been fucked. also i was searching for my terrified cats because they hang around where the tree fell (i was genuinely concerned) and consoled them. also also, navigated through the AI gatekeeper that is cable internet customer service only to hear the next available time slot for a repair person to come out is not till monday afternoon. oh yeah aaaand i had to deal with a potential flood in my driveway and crawlspace because a rainwater drain that feeds to the sump pump was clogged with debris. HOME OWNING IS AWESOME.
my wife is out of town in Vegas seeing Bruno Mars with her mom and sister. can’t wait to sass her like “while you were having the time of your life, i was here taking care of business like a grown ass man” type shit hehehe. yeah i mean, i definitely am coming down off some major adrenaline rush but thank god for indica.
i’m grateful the tree branch didn’t fall a few feet to the left, long story long. feeling relieved, happy even.
how’s your saturday night?

That sucks! Glad it wasn’t worse. My last rental had five huge trees that always caused problems. Bought a house that only had one tree only to discover that it’s roots like to grow into and clog my sewer line. Fuck trees.
I played VR, smoked a bit o’ weed and mowed, then ate food and lounged.

My friend worked on my sleeve! Went over a bunch of stuff that needed retouching and more saturation before moving onto the very deliberate yet tedious, but will be awesome once finished new part. It’ll be a bit before the next session (she’s booked four months ahead usually and I’m always working)
, but it should go faster now that the ball is rolling. Four hours:

Voting in my local elections, (yes, you should, it has way more impact on your day to day life than the national elections in most parts of the world and you can meet these people and actually get to know them and their policies - in theory) and one of the candidates for judge of the Superior court lists his profession as “attorney/experimental filmmaker”. I want more people like this in charge.

Transitioned from being an evening part-time custodian into being a subsistute for the school district (worked with them for 11 years strong now) because the current batch of people I’m working with is a nightmare (minus one guy who’s quickly become my very good friend). My boss continues to be awesome and always has my back.
Fuckers have been doing nothing but talk shit about me behind my back and have only made themselves look worse and myself look better. They’ve been there about six months. Do they not think I talk to my boss? Do they not know there are security cameras everywhere? Truly a vile bunch.
Used up some leftover vacation days to get paid for my last week, and have a job secured when I want one. I went from thinking I was going to get fired to almost crying tears of joy because my boss went above and beyond for me. One week left.
I’m gonna have some time on my hands in the evening which is gonna be real weird. I’ve worked 13 hours days consistently for about 6 years, minus another time when I did evening subsitute work. That’s been my whole schtick! I work all the time!
Got the music bug and have been working on a cover of my friend’s song. Should be decent.
Catch you later, my lovely people.

Resigned from work today. After getting 4 warnings from my manager for doing absolutely nothing and being treated like shit by my coworkers all the time I’m glad I don’t have to deal with that anymore.
Now I have to find another one tho

You did the right move…best to leave before they have a paper trail that they fired you…and that paper trail is damning…because trying to find work is a shit show when you have bullshit staining your record…which leads to getting blackballed for no reason.
Business runs on 2 things…performance and ego…
