I was thinking about watching his new video I AM LISTENING ? , it's just I'm a little over saturated right now . Kenny

Have I ever told you about the time I went down to The Library Of Congress to copyright The C major scale in person ? Oh what memories that day brings forth . The female receptionist recognized me and asked me to perform a sexual healing on her . Kenny

Great point bitflipper ? A little humor to cut the edge Feel the love I have for your musical mediocrities . If you will be my people . I will be your patron saint . Kenny

After seeing that video I took a good hard look at how much energy I put into my music for so little reward . Now just might be the right time to find out if they will take me back into The Space Program . Don't laugh I heard Strummy is doing well up there . ? Kenny

Also in this bundle they are offering Sound Forge Audio Studio a lighter version of S F . Kenny

Milo is going to keep a close eye on this thread once you get off his lawn . Kenny

Oh Oh ! what happens next ? Will The Supreme Court apply the same standards to music ? Will I have to hire a lawyer and get permission to record and play an AM chord ? That's it , if I don't destroy my whole art collection now they may come get me , lock me up , and throw away the key . I have been using other peoples photo's with out permission while putting different peoples heads in them and placing them in various back round settings for years . Times have sure have changed ! Back in my day you could write a song about shooting the sheriff and as long as you weren't the guy who shot the deputy you could still roam free . Kenny

Milo is in the process of trying to recreate his throat performance using Home Studio 2 with two instances of the Delay Lama . Once he has an accurate conversion from the audio to midi, he hopes to be able to translate the meaning of the vocal using a language translator. Kenny

I work hard so my dog and I can have a better life . This is why it is so important for me to fall asleep to a restful video containing just the right ambience . Kenny

Kiss Me I'm beautiful ! Woah !I just woke up after falling asleep to that video and a frog told me if I kissed her on the lips she would turn into a beautiful princess Kenny

Great Point ! Yes I agree with you there . Kenny

On one level I can certainly understand what you are saying Yet I am not totally in agreement with you on that point of view . What we are talking about here is a double edged sword that cuts both ways . My preference is to play the snot out of my guitar and when I have something I feel captures the musical emotional intensity I want to convey I will record that . In the areas I agree , composing music on a DAW w out a clear musical picture of your intended song can become an exercise in futility . My Muse don't want to hang around for that $hit ! and no matter how many aromatic sprinkles I may sprinkle on my tunes they can still smell like a Turds . In my case I have found an approach that seems to help aid my chops and compositional skills in an alternative way using my DAW . Early on I discovered that a DAW is a perfect tool for deconstructing and aiding one in putting a great composers music under a microscope and learning how to understand, play and apply what I have worked on to my instrument the guitar or any other application I may have in mind . With out getting into great depth.... many of the common editing tools in a DAW lend themself s rather nicely for deconstructing songs and other peoples work .... One can EQ things in and EQ things out to hear what is really going on , Tempo control to slow it down enough to hear it , instant midi key transposition , audio to midi conversions , cutting and pasting sections to delve deeper into being able to understand a recognize how an artist / composer by setting up mini lessons to show the progression of how the composer arrived at their unique musical Idea ...this is just to name a few ...... For the record I happen to spend a great deal of my time transcribing music I feel is of value to me as opposed to staring at a blank song template and scratching my nuts trying to decide what to do next ... I hope you don't think I may be attacking you by what I am about to say next ....I am merely bringing up a point ... It seems to me a large percentage of the DAW community as a whole has a appetite for a number of particular market techniques that will bait their collective hooks with their favorite bait .... in addition to that idea many people can't seem to get enough ... What am I talking about here ? ... Lets consider the whole spectrum of musical software vendors that have meticulously analyzed, recorded and did a deep dive on every possible instrument , studio plug , and orchestral sound stage complete even with world renowned orchestras of world wide notoriety and acclaim while making the gear used by these artist and studios available for any one who has the coin to buy these products . IMHO this is a clear cut message a majority of the software companies are sending a message their products will aid some one in using the DAW for composition ? How do I know this ? I drank the Kool Aide and bought into the whole erroneous Idea that I can be a real legitimate composer given the right tools ? Now I know better ! all the best , Kenny

Yes ! Kenny

Amen bitflipper ! you get another same here from me . Kenny

? ?la la la la la la la la la la la ?ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ?e e e e e ya e e e e e Kenny

Kenny

I had the opposite problem I could play the $hit out of a guitar yet I had no idea how to use a computer Kenny

Kenny

When the sound and performance of the plugin is stellar , don't worry about the out dated look of the plugin ...case in point Sonitus plugs . Kenny

The posts so far all contain good points of view and answers . Kenny

I would love to request a thug icon for the people that have given a few of my posts bad reactions . Kenny

If you could go back in time to when you first started what would you tell yourself to do differently . Lets hear your thoughts on this topic . Kenny

In the 80's I auditioned at SIR Studios in NYC for Chubby Checker ...there was something like 50 guitar players hanging around waiting for their number to play . When it was my turn I went on stage gave him a hug , plugged in and had a blast .. IIRC the audition consisted of us playing over an extended Funky Blues Vamp in the key of E ...not any of the 50 / 60's tunes he made famous ... The band was great. Chubby was very personable and gracious . And before I forget ...I felt real good about what I played ....yet I didn't get the Gig ....? Kenny

Watch out for the horse on the left ! Even though the tongue is sticking out .It still has teeth ! Kenny
