Logic and Other thoughts

I am sick of blog posts starting with "It's been a while and I'm sorry". There are like, 4 of you that read this. I'm not fucking sorry at all.Anyway, it's been busy around camp NoiseTheorem. A lot of mundane house activities with a little studio time. Trying to get back into it, but my muse has been eluding me lately.Speaking of my muse, it've been thinking about her a lot lately. Seen her in my dreams. There are many ways to interpret this, but I see it as her taunting me. She's so close, I can almost smell her, but really...your muse doesn't give a fuck about you and your productivity. It will come when it pleases and you just have to live with it.Well, that got dark and angry really fast. Typical me, typical me...I've started evaluating my studio again for some reorganizing. I've meant to write up the DeepMind12 for so long now that I think everyone's forgotten about it and moved on. I'll short that conversation by saying that I love it, but it's literally nothing I can't do with my Virus...or my Kronos...or my V-Synth. Yeah, it's true analog, and I love that you can absolutely *nail* a Roland Juno 106 impression out of it, but that's also a synth that I played out in 1994. That said, I do love recreating my old 106 patches and then taking them further by adding dynamic expression and FX. Kinda reminds me a little bit of the Alesis Andromeda, actually. Now if they could just go back and put a second filter and a few more LFO's on there, I'd be happy as a pig in shit. As it is, this one's probably going on the stack of 'occasional use' instruments, and not going to be my synthesis workhorse.I got a modded minibrute in a trade. Anyone want to buy/trade for my minibrute? I don't know why..I love the sound, but I can't see myself really using it that much. I'd like it modded into a full eurorack module or parted out into a series of them. That would be cool if someone wants to try..The new novation stuff looks really awesome. I want the Peak, but it would probably just end up being like the DM12. I don't really need it, so why go through the hassle of having it?I also got back on the Logic Audio bandwagon. That one deserves a full post, and I'll write that later. In 7 or 8 months. when no one cares.
