hello lusus, and welcome! nice rig! ...i have more keys,
but you have more processors
actually, i mainly use software
for efx, a completely digital rig running sonar 4 pr.ed.,
sony sound forge, acid 4, cd architect.
if that comes up short, i'm checked out for use of studio
"B" at pacific studios tacoma.
do you have tunes posted that we can hear?
rick and i had the same discussion re: dream theatre
not 6 months ago, and i said the same thing.
they appear to have no gift for subtlety whatsoever,
lack any kind of emotional connection to the music or listener.
..maybe i was on the wrong drugs...
i've said it elsewhere, but IMO art w/o craft is pretentious,
craft w/o art is tedious and boring.
i
never start off the writing process
w/ "gonna write a ____ tune". to me, that's just pandering to
an audience, nothing "progressive" about it.
IMO(again), "prog" becoming a recognized genre was
nearly a deathblow to the music further progressing.
