Live Online #67: Nominee

I got to take a turn on the red carpet with Kou Chou Ching at this year’s Golden Melody Awards in Taipei on Saturday. Kou Chou Ching was nominated in the category of best band for the Unsung Heroes album that I was featured on.

providerThe award went to the band 1976, but it was a great experience being at the event. It’s the second year that Kou Chou Ching was nominated and I’m pretty sure they’ll win the award somewhere in the future – they’re hard-working guys, so it’s great to see them recognized.

We’re at about 1:30 in this YouTube clip.

Thanks so much to Provider for making sure I looked the part – they have an outlet in Taipei’s trendy Ximending ;^)

Live Online #65: Nova

After finishing a new mix for Kou Chou Ching over the weekend, I’m more committed than ever to upgrading my desktop PC. A mix like the Kou Chou Ching one consists of more than 70 stereo tracks, each requiring plug-ins. My current Core2Duo machine handles it, with the caveat that I have to freeze tracks in Sonar as I go along. Looking forward to not having to freeze tracks on the Core i7 machine I’m planning to get. I’ll be building it myself to save some money. The new machine is still some months away though as I planned to buy it strictly with earnings from shows in Second Life… The wait will hopefully make the eventual purchase all the sweeter.

Live Online #64: Unicode

FedEx delivered my copy of LA Scoring Strings today and I can’t wait to install all 40GB of it and start playing. Not that it’s a toy – on the contrary, it’s the cutting edge of string libraries out there. And possibly the most advanced instrument in my studio. I got it mostly to improve the quality of the soundtrack I’m doing for the National Geographic documentary, and with an eye to doing more soundtrack work. But I can also see it being pushed into service on my chillout tracks.

Here’s the double-edged sword: if I can’t make my string arrangements sound good with the best tools available, it must mean that I suck at it. Never go into anything without a healthy dose of self-doubt.

Live Online #63: Snapper

The reveal over at Propellerhead that I mentioned last week was stretched out over 5 days and turned out to be for Reason 5/Record 1.5 after all. A host of new features were announced (Peter Kirn has a good summary of the new features on his Create Digital Music blog), many of which have been requested by users for a long time, but sadly there was no mention of a 64-bit Rewire as I’d hoped. I’ll be upgrading of course, but I’m still hoping for the improved Rewire somewhere along the line.
