Hardware Loop

By Arcana on November 15, 2020 11:29 pm

I volunteered to do a "live" online set for this weekend and I didn't really prepare and I haven't really used my hardware for a few months. I had a non-working USB hub, an OS update that broke a bunch of extensions, a lot of mismatched versions of OS firmware, my hard drive ran out of space, and just a general sense of not-ready-at-all today.

Here's a loop because I think I'll run over my deadline if I don't get this uploaded. Hopefully there'll be more by the time I get my set up.

Sounds like it went well. The song's come out well enough at least.

I actually managed to work more on the set and I think it went all right in the end. One thing I didn't account for? I was sharing over Zoom, so it would end up picking up all of the direct-in instruments and none of the additional FX. HOWEVER - if I didn't unmute them in Logic, they wouldn't pass through to the outputs.

I'm still not 100% sure what people on the digital meeting heard honestly big_smile
