What’s Up In November
Logos Review
I submitted Logos last month for review and have yet to hear anything back regarding the release of that review. I have been checking nervously everyday, looking to see the art work posted and a link to another (insert your own word here) review. Time will tell and I can only hope that my optimism pays off.
Black and Basic Release
Work and all the other trials and tribulations of life have set both albums in a limbo stage. Most of the tracks on both albums are close to ready, but I am not rushing the final process. Hopefully the releases will still happen this month, however, most likely it will be near the end of it.
Upcoming Releases
Pralaya, Aphotic Transmissions, and Walking with Myths are all on hiatus. I have decided to work very slowly through these albums and you will more than likely see a different side to my blogging than usual. I have spewed pretentious release information before only to regret it later and thus it will not be happening anymore.
Custom built CPUs/DAWs and Online Store changes
As I said before, I am excited to be able to expand my services into the technical realm of audio computing. Artists now days need a stable and powerful center to run their digital playground. I have decided to go with three basic setups (to start with), all on Intel boards, flaunting excellent, cutting edge technology such as: DDR3 Triple Channel ECC RAM sporting both the Xeon, i7, and Core Duo processors. The high-end board will be a dual quad-core setup with astounding capabilities, either a server processor such as the Xeon, or the i7. Of course, I bargain shop all the time and I have excellent suppliers that send me the components at great deals, after which I hand craft each one into monstrous melody makers.
Possibly one of my strongest points has been the years upon years of being a serious computer enthusiast. I can safely and assuredly pass on great offers on packages that offer the most for your money. As for the completion – or even initial setup for that matter – there is no time frame currently in place. I have been unsuccessful in reaching my main site designer to begin the plans and nothing starts moving until he or the others I contacted start talking back. More information will follow regarding the three packages and hopefully a possible outlook on what’s happening with the store. MP3s will also be available for download through the online store here on the site. More to follow…
Studio Upgrades
The studio is slated for a system wide upgrade at the beginning of next year. If you follow my tweets, or use a similar lineup, you probably know why it will have to wait until then.
Site Client Area
Using a very sleek project management system, I will be moving all my older and present client projects to a newly envisioned client area. Your experience will be streamlined much more with such features as: automated payments, easy approval processes, graphic time tables, and entry based file management. I will send an email to all clients containing your access information.
To close it up, October has been one hell of a month.
