I've got a couple of good mics now after years of working hard to save the money. I've a modern pair of c414s (sadly Hungarian, not the Austrian ones). I've an Austrian Audio 818. A pair of 040 micro SDCs. Drum sets, Shure 57s etc etc..

...there is a church down the road from me (and probably many others near me) that always sounded cool. Even as an atheist its tempting to email them and ask about hiring it as a recording space, or ask if they have a choir.

@mxtthxw what I have found weird is how the Fifine 30 quid mic has become one of my faves. I also have an AKG d65s from the mid 90s thats still amazing. That thing cost me £30 in the 90s.

Yes, I can confirm that it feels amazing to be able to create your own music.

YOU SHOULD TRY IT SOMETIME

@defaultmediatransmitter @mxtthxw @KydiaMusic its interesting. Can they actually make money with AI? Given that a couple of UK/US courts have ruled you cant own the copyright on AI generated content.

I’m amazed that LinkedIn is a website people use.

I mean don’t you ever think jeez this humanity thing really sucks?

I hear people need it for work but why?

I don’t get why certain websites get used.

@mxtthxw facebook/meta makes money selling a business version of fb to corps and institutions. We have a local one for our Trust that only Trust members can access.

What could be better to start the working week with some assembled noises to put in your face?

Proceeds still go www.msf.org and www.map.org.uk

@emsquared I still think the DAW companies should work on their own custom OS's. Then maybe things would be more stable, more audio interfaces would work properly for less CPU....

@simon @emsquared Ilike the idea of the Push 3 but just so limited for me.

Today I have set up a microphone (Fifine K669D), a recorder (Zoom H6), and I have recorded about an hour of my voice just boringly talking about my experiences at work, on the bike a rant about Friends tv show, a rant about politicians...

    Playing around with a 12/8 time signature today after watching some videos on Afro-Cuban and Caribbean rhythms. Sounds nothing like them, obviously.

    I use a pair of these, passive mixcubes to master my tracks... they have what's referred to as a 'useful musical range' (basically 90 Hz to 16 KHz and generally pretty flat), A/B stereo/mono and let me know what my music will sound like on a shit listening system.

    They're also good for tracking any bass being pull;ed into that range in a mix.

    I thoroughly recommend them, or similar.

    @OneBlindMouse @etherdiver @elsemusic
    Reading all of this I have to ask you all...

    ..how many of you use reference tracks and music you like through your main mixing setup?

    I just mix on ATm50x's as thats all I can set up. But I listen to everything on them from classic rock, classical, TV and movie audio... I used to do that with the RoKits 24 years ago.

    @mxtthxw One of the blokes at work went "I'm into reggae!"

    I said "Oh Horace Andy?"

    "Who?"

    Turned out he was into some South African influenced offshoot. Not actual reggae. Also he didnt know Andy.

    @mxtthxw when I describe my own focus I often say "anal" LOL

    I'm very conscious about describing others actions though. And that just seems like a really bad word to use now I think on.

    This is part of the reason music died here in the UK
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNtgnGkqgHA
    When you're left with only a laptop to make music the genres start to ebb away as to what you can construct.

    This affects music teachers as well as professional musicians.

    @mxtthxw Southampton had a massive live band scene too. The bands have all dwindled in recent years. Almost all the venues have been forced to shut down live music due to rules Blair brought in.
