I said I was going to do all of the recording this month using GarageBand on my iPad. That’s mostly correct.
I just finished doing something that I’d never done before. I have a song that is recorded 100% on my iPhone. Drums and bass are GarageBand MIDI tracks. There are also two tracks of guitar, the Strat, and three tracks of vocals.
It’s rough, but everything this month is rough. I’m just glad I was able to sneak in a vocal today before this SOB of a cold ruins what little voice I have.
No lights, but it is a school night.
This tree is in front of the Nevins Library in Methuen…
…How is it that no Game of Thrones fan has carved a face into it?
Not sure if this is going to work when done in the mobile app/browsing world, but…
Nerd boy is at it again only this time the tide isn’t as cooperative. #WetSneakers
Once again I have defeated my nemesis. Once again my parents’ enormous air conditioner has been installed. My enemy has been vanquished.
I’m up to five songs. Four were written on the Strat, one using MIDI on the iPad. One has vocals. I tried working on a second vocal tonight but didn’t have time.
You’d think with all this guitar playing I’d be getting my chops up. Nope. It’s the opposite. I’m getting worse by the minute.
I’ve got a goofy idea for this month. I’m going to do all the recording on the iPad then port everything to the Mac for mixing. But… I’m thinking of doing an actual mix on the iPad too, and then putting both mixes of each song onto the bandcamp playlist.
What do you think? Too lame?
Night baseball, because the concept of a school night doesn’t seem to exist in this idiot town.
