Things and Stuff for September 4, 2010
Welcome to September. Summer is finally thinking about shoving off, and good things will soon happen... for somebody... I guess.

On Friday, I bought an old Digitech RDS 900 digital delay unit from music-go-round for $49. It was just sitting there, looking so old, I just had to see what it did. This thing dates back to around 1984, and it's rather interesting to play with. I, naturally, did that, and explained a bit about how it works, and demonstrated how to get a stereo chorus effect from it, eeven though it's a mono effects processor.
September 4 was the 16th birthday of my Ensoniq TS-12 keyboard. This was celebrated with another dumb birthday song written using it's sequencer, just like last year, as well as a bunch of unrelated, highly incriminating clips from the past of yours truly, triggering a rather amusing memory of something that happened to an x-TBRN presenter in 2007.
Except for the third part of the Pams series, that's about it for this week.
I don't know if I'll be showing next week, since the studio might have it's guts ripped out next Saturday to change the carpet. That should have happened this week, but measurements were never taken, and I've bought some bass traps to install in the room, as I've decided to slowly put together an acoustic treatment solution to get rid of some of those annoying standing waves, and have some defusing going on. Too much to do all at once, found some good deals on bass traps, so decided to start out with that.
