All the best!

I like ups because I worked for them for 8 years and they are Union. I support unions. I decry violence. My November order arrives tomorrow. I love music. I find it so much fun. My latest favorite toy is the keeley eccos. It has this sound on sound loop mode where older loops decay and fade. I've never had this in another stomp, and I play with it for hours. I turn a figure eight sideways to the amp for vocals. It's just practice, but i practice the recording too. Because I get to know the different sounds I expect with me as performer, changing mics and hardware settings gives good feedback on different gear. It's silly, but I've been recording 6 channels... 2 from the eccos, 2 mics, compression for those 2 mics... at 96 bc why not. Lol

@Glenn Stanton I've got one of those mxl tube mics. I used it tonight. It's a good one.

Your Apollo still has plastic over the screens?

I ordered an ashtray for a tele on August 18. I got it last week, dec 6. I ordered a power supply and pedal on nov 28. It has not arrived yet, dec 14. Are others seeing this from different venders? I'm not sure if this is a sign of supply issues.

The next song i hear.

My logo sounds awesome.

The keeley eccos is an interesting pedal. If there are other pedals with sound on sound mode with tape like delay, I'd love to know. It turns out, I find this wonderful. The way it works is this... When you have made your first loop and click the stomp button, you are immediately in overdub mode. You can hear your first loop and play over it. Each time you go around, the volume of the older loops decays further until they are inaudible. The number of bars in your loop never changes, but you could morph to a whole new song while playing. Then, roll the volume to zein after your performance and in a few minutes the amp will go quiet without stopping the loop.

The birds aren't real.

No headphones.

I looked last night... I had 2 copies of the same input coming from the pre amp... one went to a compressor. The compressor had the output gain turned up and i didn't notice. The two were then sent to the rme as channel 1 left and right.. these two channels saw the glitch. The glitch was definitely driven by volume, but the problem was at the rme. Channel 2 left and right was not impacted. I have never seen a clipping track mess up another. I've had my rme a might long time now. 2008? I'm not sure but it has been a while. It was not lightly clipping. Only at the loudest moments did the glitch happen. The digital glitch was less pronounced on the unclipped track.

I got a phone call. I think it was from a cell phone. The phone was muted but on. I did have one overdriven signal going into the rme ucx, but that was a different channel. I suppose it could have been the rme... idk

I'm guessing I overdrove something. The mic? The pre? I'm going to have to dive back in and try to recreate it, but I thought I'd ask you all. It was a tube mic I was recording with. Guitar aimed at it. Sounds like clipping but it is not.

I send main outs through EQ in my interface. I regularly lift the high end b/c I'm a little handicapped there. So are the others I live with. But I don't leave it like that all the time. I definitely don't 're-master', but I do EQ to taste. Sometimes, when I can't hear the bass as I like, I use MBassador from Melda. This has helped me make bass audible through cheap headphones and inferior stereos. I think it doesn't do much that a tube plugin doesn't do. Getting the bass right has been something I have struggled with since ever.

Thanks. I'm not sure that is for me, but it was interesting to watch. Thanks. I'm not sure much of that is for me, but it is neat.
