what have i been doing…..

  • Working on a UI for Urs Heckmann’s unreleased Soft Synth, secretly dubbed ‘z-device’

  • Learning and working on presets for this Z-device

  • Making music… new track is kinda…. TECHNO!

  • Playing with my AN1x and liking its nice sounds.

  • wishing for a audio interface so I can record the AN1x and actually use it in my music

  • Sleeping in shifting sleeping patterns again and getting rather annoyed about it. (gotta exercise more, should help(no I’m not fat)) It seems now that my creativity is on the rise again, i am sleeping worse. probably a mind activity thing.. gotta learn to wind down for sleep.

  • Bought a vacuum cleaner… its damn sexy too! It’s a Silver Nilfisk Compact (Deluxe model (C20 )bla bla). If ya look at that URL, don’t worry, I wondered why that girl was vacuuming her hair too. Maybe she has nits? notice she is picking them out in the first pic. Btw, its really nice to use… easy to move and…. stuff. and it sucks too! ;)

  • posting on osxaudio.com a bit

  • on my mac, i removed all hacks, updated to OS X 10.2.6 and optimised it with OnyX... its HEAPS faster… I am amazed!

  • on my pc, updated XP to SP1

  • still trying to fix my mum and sisters computer…. damn worms… fixed blaster… must be SoBig cause the computer is still slow for them when they are online. I am gonna install a firewall on it. This is suggest for all windows users sigh

  • listening to lots of techno

  • learning to DJ with Traktor; Controlling it with my AN1x which is really fun. while tracks are playing, I also play sounds from the AN1x. Will get into triggering samples along with it too. It sounds good.

  • I took up drinking coffee to see if it aids with my productivity… it seems to work… hmm. I’ll blame Urs for this! >:|

  • learning synthesis in general and reading about synths, both hardware and software.

  • Looking for a job… anyone want to hire me? check out my portfolio

and thanks dampeoples for reminding me my blog went silly/blank…. it happens when I haven’t posted for a while… rather annoying.. any ideas why? should just post more :)
