Embarking on a New Musical Odyssey: 2022 and Beyond
It feels like moments ago when I was introducing two musical collections in 2021. Now, as 2022 unfolds, I’ve taken on an exhilarating project titled MMXXII. This year promises vast potential, making it the perfect namesake for my musical journey.
Where I’ve Been: The Transformation
From the last time I updated you, a significant transition took place: this platform morphed into my official music website, marking a much-awaited evolution.
The Challenge of Change: Technology’s Role
Leaving the Old Behind: My once-reliable Asus GSX74, my sidekick since 2009, began to falter. I grappled with the decision of upgrading my software as my secondary workstation, the Surface Pro 4, met its end.
The Golden Advice: Amid these technological shifts, my wife proposed an idea that resonated with my past: “Why not switch to a Mac?” My history with Mac systems rekindled my interest in this suggestion. As one friend said it best, I’ve been living in the wilderness for far too long, and it was time to come home to the Mac. As the old joke goes, once you go Mac, you never go back!
Revisiting Old Friends: The MacBook Pro Experience
Acquiring the 2021 MacBook Pro 14″ felt right. Its features aligned with my needs, but there was a catch: my old software wouldn’t function on the new system. This hurdle reintroduced me to Logic Pro, a software I hadn’t used in ages.
The Studio Renaissance: Embracing New Challenges
This newfound path was thrilling but demanded adjustments. I had to familiarize myself with Logic Pro’s Audio Units, different from what I’d been used to. Yet, with guidance from fellow musicians, I’m now revamping my studio, getting ready for the big debut.
The Future Beckons: Sharing My Craft
In the near future, I’ll offer insights into the tools behind my melodies. With plans to broadcast my artistic process, platforms like Twitch, Discord, YouTube, TikTok, and maybe even Facebook are on my radar.
Conclusion
The melody continues, and as always, I invite you to be a part of this musical journey. Stay in sync with my upcoming updates!
