Mind My Business

Recently I've been talking about setting up a small recording studio for demoing songs... I have the tendency to forget the songs I write.

Anyways, on Christmas I got a MXL 990 Condenser Mic. pretty stoked....



Then today I went and bought this


It's a Yamaha AudioGram 6 Interface. It's pretty sweet. It came with CUBIS AI Software. Which I've read is a decent program. If not I'll just use Garage Band. It also has inputs for my Motif ES8.

I think this might be a good start for this years goals...

I'm stoked... now I can lay down tracks for the music that comes to me and I won't have to worry about trying to remember what I wrote.

This year I'm getting married (June 6th).. which is the most exciting thing in my life.

But I also have some goals that I want to meet..

here they are... in no particular order.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope to work further into the Orange Floor vision and get into a building.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want to expand my design set-up with a Wacom Cintiq 21UX (cost $2000)
Also I'm taking on another design program.. After Effects. Should be fun!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope to further my passion for Worship and start leading again, write some songs and seek God more. There's a possibility I might attend the Bethel School of Worship.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also hope to excel further musically. Vocals, Guitar, Drums and Piano.

I'm well rounded vocally and my guitar skills do justice (about 11 years). But I would like to get better.
This last year I picked up drums and piano. So far I'm self taught on the drums and I've taken a semester of piano.

I also want to get back down to 175lbs. I weigh 205...

we shall see how I treat 2009.
