That's what I'm telling myself. That's what I feel some folk are thinking. As of this very day I touched up the last track that needs to be touched up. If all goes well, that should finish the album, then I can post to CDBaby which will eventually distribute to the other online stores.
Maybe I can get a release within the next week.
I mentioned a secret or something at the end my previous post. Turns out it may need to remain a mystery for a bit longer than anticipated. So sit back and enjoy the album and forget I said anything. What? It'll just be more of a surprise later. ;-)
Finally I'll mention that I changed my mind about GPO4. Yeah, I'm getting an iLok. Look, I didn't wanna do it, but here's the deal: the Gold version of the EWQL Symphonic orchestra omits the other mic positions (something I thought I'd want) yet has all of the articulations. That means I still get all the sounds. Turns out the other mic positions are a bit overkill in my opinion, blowing up the hard drive space needed while requiring gobs of CPU just to play overlapped instruments (i.e., a single french horn note would trigger 3 voices, one for each mic position simultaneously). The Gold version is only 33GB (versus the Platinum's >100GB) and is just about half the price. Not as cheap as GPO4, but suddenly it's within reach. Being that Notion3 supports this library as well, it's almost a given that if it's not GPO4, it's the Symphonic Orchestra.
Now I need a job. I'm looking for one as we speak. Just something to get a fair income for a bit as I establish myself. I'm almost done with my associate's degree (finally) and I'm down to my last week of school (next week). Then next spring I should graduate then look to moving on to a four-year college for my bachelor's (in computer science and something else…probably music composition or the like). Wish me luck that my credits transfer as they should, lol.
Well I think that's it for now. My next post should be about the release. Here's to no more hurdles!
Keep your ears and eyes open, as well your mind.
