Labor of Love
I started recording the audio elements to the track I'd been improvising around. The capture went well, but I am having some trouble structuring. I've *kind of* got an intro...kind of...but not really, and I don't know what to do in the body. The impove I did with J the other night sounded *really* good...but I just can't get back to that sound.
Part of the reason I am having issues, I think, is also that my speakers are poorly placed. I don't know how to improve that much given the layout of the room I am in. One nice thing in my old space was that the PC was centered which made recording and mixing easy. I need to figure out a better way to lay things out for mixing. I almost need a separate set of speackers for mix and compose. That is just so expensive though...
The important thing, though, is that I am engaging in the process of recording and arranging. I haven't gone to that step with a track in a long while, and it is extrenely important to keep engaged in it. Even if progress is painfully slow, at least it's there.
So never stop - Keep moving - Breathe....
