I'm not a professional, but here's what I do. I run Logic from my MBP internal drive and record to an external FW800 7200 RPM drive. I back up the external drive to my internal drive after I record (1 backup). I also back up my internal MBP drive to a Time Capsule giving me two backups of my recordi...

Well, I'm done. :D The fun of the challenge far outweighed the suck of the challenge. I think I'm a better songwriter because of it. As far as becoming better at capturing sound, I don't think I progressed too much. I enjoy writing way more than recording, but I need to record so my writing can be h...

Yeah, I'm bumping my own thread. 15 weeks into this thing and all is well, I think. I do feel like I'm trapped on a merry-go-round though. I'm grouping each 13 weeks into an "album". So 205211:1 is done. Check it our here: http://tournamentknights.com/album/20-52-11-1 205211:2 is here: http://tourna...

It's Andy from Birmingham. You know - Crush, Lugsole, Nectarine, etc.

I would welcome you, but I'm basically a non-posting longtime noob with little to no talent.

How's the wife?

Hey Josh. Thanks. Checked out (and will be checking out more of) your stuff. Very nice. Yeah, it's been a challenge already, and it's only week 5. I'm determined to do it. My wife is very supportive, so that helps. The great thing about it is you just have to go with it - if you know what I mean. Th...

2011: new song a week for 52 weeks

Well, I'm turning 40 this year. For some that's a major milestone and for others it is the end. I'm somewhere in the middle. In order to make this year a bit more enjoyable, I've decided to take on the challenge of writing and recording a new song each week for 2011. Tape Op has been a great resourc...

Apparently when I went to save a template for future recording projects, the save included some audio files in the audio bin for the template. Anyway, when I would start a new project and used the saved template, it would load those au...

I just built one. Not sure how handy you are. I think parts cost me around $50 and it sounds good to my ears. Just an option.

deleting unused files in project in Logic Express 8

Hey. Thought I would ask this question here first... I did a Google search but what I found was inconclusive. I record using Logic Express 8. I record the files on a separate FW drive. Anyway, to free up some space i decided to delete unused files in my projects. Window>Audio Bin ---- then in Audio ...
