something useful from A&R people at Taxi???

Post by cassettefetish » Wed Jan 05, 2005 1:14 pm

Hell has frozen over.

http://www.studiobuddy.com/

The folks at Taxi released some software for recordists... I am downloading this now...

It is supposedly software with recording tips... it seems like it has some useful info in there.

What do y'all think?



Links, so you don't have to register to get it:

http://www.taxi.com/studiobuddy/studiobuddy.sit Mac (not OSX compatible)



edit: IT ACTUALLY HAS GOOD INFORMATION. Wow.

You see, kids, Taxi has a notoriously bad reputation... so I just am surprised they did something good. And it's free? Wow.

StudioBuddy has been up there for a while now. Another decent reference for techniques. I think you just answered my question about forking over some of my hard-earned cash to TAXI as well.
What? No Gravy???

If you want to know more about Taxi, please visit http://velvetrope.com and search for their name.

I am just giving my opinion, and I could be wrong.

I thought it'd be neater if you could add your own tips. I see tons of useful tidbits on TapeOp, and I save the thread or email it to myself, but the time comes to apply EQ to that distorted guitar, I just can't find the tip I saved. It'd be nice if I could be sure it was all in StudioBuddy.

Of course, I could probably make something like this in Excel and my basic VBA knowledge, but ... it's just not as neat.

Holy shit! Cassettefetish, your avatar just made me laugh so hard, I spit coffee all over my computer monitor. Damn that is funny.
I know enough to know that I don't know what I am doing.
