Without

A quick song this week that sounds like me singing through a city street payphone.

It's very mid-heavy, so not the best mix.

I spent most of the week setting up, and re-wiring my music desk area - now everything is hooked up to midi via the hapax and audio is routed or in the patch bay! Happy to have some consistency now that the home construction has subsided.

I did figure out how to send a recorded track out the portastudio effect send so I can route/process something though new effects, so that will open up a bunch of new cool abilities for post processing. I didn't end up using it in the end, but I was able to send the clean vocals I recorded back out and through the vocoder, and record that back in.

The lyrics were scrambled together at the last minute, and are generally about scrambling to get lyrics together at the last minute 😀

It's funny how the lyrics are about not being able to find the right lyrics, while the arrangement also feels kind of incomplete without bass.

Feels a bit like an interlude on an album. I like the analog phonecall vocals, very characterful.

nice! i like listening to your progression week to week. can't wait for your debut album!

Thanks - I've been using one vocal preset a lot, so tried to change it up a bit.
