after finding my way around the new puter, I felt it was time to install some of the stuff I really want on here. Fortunately the peeps at HP don’t install too much crap on the system, unlike some companies do. The weapon of choice this time was Reason 4, one of propellorheads latest offerings. Sadly I don’t seem to have the time to be playing as much with the audio stuff these days, not as much as I would like to anyway.
Having said all that. I have just revamped an old machine which was sitting around gathering dust, so a quick spruce up, a hard drive here and there, new OS and away it went. This just leaves one machine lying idle and minus a few bits and bobs. My old Server has now become unusable. The old IBM laptop is going to a new home, just as soon as I clear all the crap and old email of there. So that just leaves the newbie machine and the Media PC.
The option to upgrade the Media PC is on the cards, but not just yet. I would like to beef upto a quad core processor or dual quad core and 4 – 8 Gig of RAM, sadly the cost of which is beyond my means, not to mention justifying the outlay for something that works – ok – at the moment. i still havent discounted the option for a shiny new mac for my video/audio editing yet, again….future. Not now!
I think I mentioned installing Macromedia on here, so now is the time to start working on my main site and run this alongside. How, I haven’t a clue yet, but something needs to be done.
So back to music. Once I get my head around using some of the new fangled tools and synths on Reason, I am sure to post some updates here untill I get my site up and running again.
