Recorded on Sunday. It's been a while. Whenever you go back to something like this, there is always a re-learning curve, which sucks.
You have to rewire everything: mics, instruments, speakers, midi devices...
You have to patch and reconfigure everything in the software: input/output buses, headphone routing, metronome output, levels, effects routing...
Then you have to troubleshoot for about 30 minutes of frustration because you can't get anything out of your keyboard because you have the midi channel set wrong on the hardware itself.
All of this is very effective at killing any bit of creativity you like to think you have.
But...if you press on, and try to leave as much as you can untouched for the next free Sunday, as well as take advantage of newer software templates and profiles that can be saved and recalled...you might have some time to record something.
I did. Three tracks. More process defining than an actual creative session...but I'm kind of digging the (umixed, unmastered) simplicity of the audio...it counters the complexity of the process.
