Attention
My collection of circuit bent toy samples is now $10.
What!? Why???
This is closer to the price it should have been from the start. Since it is a niche product I could have charged way more for it. I feel this is still a very fair price.
This price change does not affect previous purchases.
The details of the sample pack are here: http://www.audiogeekzine.com/toys-breaking-sample-cd/

Another week of updates from @theaudiogeek
-
@KeyOfGrey 25% usually sounds like crap. I found PT’s Xform offline works best for long stretches. VERY slow though.
-
@KeyOfGrey I think Ableton’s Algorithms are written for efficiency, REAPER has a ton of options & eleastique Pro 2 sounds very good.
-
-
-
You East-coasters go to bed WAY too early! It’s only 10!!
-
-
-
Going to meet
@chckn8r and have burgers soon
-
@HunterOnTheRun Burger was great, slow service and the Vuvuzela concert was annoying. Went to Vera’s Burger Shack on Commercial Ave.
-
LOL just noticed the Soccer mode on YouTube. :)
-
There are 2 new Futurama episodes to be found online.
-
-
“REAPER Notes” becomes a monthly column in Sound On Sound in August. Great news!

Going out for coffee then recording a podcast.

If you live in Vancouver and are interested in Home Recording or anything covered on this site or podcast, I’ve just started a Meetup group for Home Recording people. The plan is to meet once a month for a couple hours. It’s free to sign up. Venue to be announced.
This group is for anyone interested in Home Recording and the many related topics like mixing, microphones, acoustics, podcasting etc.
The goal of this group is to meet once a month, share stories and tips, talk about gear and techniques, and meet the community of recordists.
Whether you’re a hobbyist, musician, weekend warrior or professional audio engineer, you are welcome to come out and connect, share and learn from the community.
Meet people, share, learn and laugh.
If you’re in the Toronto area there’s the Greater Toronto Area Home Recording Meetup. I went to the first meeting just before I moved and it was a lot of fun.

A week of Twitter activity from @theaudiogeek

Happy Mothra’s Day!

I coulda sworn it was Kenny Loggins that did “Push It To The Limit” but apparently not, just had some rappers here throw down on that beat.
- Girl! [I found out my wife and I are having a girl]
-
Mix delivered and by all accounts pretty kick ass. But now what am i going to do?
-
-
Sitting on the balcony auto-tuning. Gotta mix this song today.
-
-
I just did hands on Pro Tools troubleshooting for someone without leaving my computer VIA Team Viewer

-
that was a sour pickle
-
first day of working from home, doing my previous job. Getting the store organized without there physically being one.
-
1400 followers. It seems more followers = less interaction

Finally bought my REAPER license. Only took me 450 days to decide.
-
Had the fire alarm go off during a vocal take today….and continue for 15 more minutes. Well about 15 min, we were on Hip-hop time.

Downside to recording with me is my wife will tweet about you RT
@ihazadoodle: OMG, it’s terrible! “Can we fix that with Autotune?” Um, no.
-
-
I don’t like coffee in the afternoon but coffee ice cream wakes me from my nap pretty well.
-
-
-
@peterkirn “That seems a stretch.” Why is that? Looks like it works perfectly and you don’t have to bash it like a typical pad controller.
