Last night I recorded a pipa (chinese stringed instrument) and flamenco/classical (girlfriend's dad) guitar duo in this big event hall with fantastic acoustics. We used a pair of SM81s in an ORTF stereo arrangement. It sounds gorgeous... so much ambience... hopefully clips will arise sooner or later.



There it is. Headphones if you listen... dig the natural stereo spread and ambience! Lovin' it. The pipa does overpower the guitar a bit though.


nice work! sounds loverly. there's something so awesome about two mic recording, for sure. i haveta give spaced omnis a whack sometime soon, now that i have a couple-- always wanted to--- but never had the mics til recently! is there more of the performance? pretty neat seeing a traditional chinese instrument rockin' such a totally different form of music-- what's the skinny on that?

Yeah, two mic stereo stuff is awesome. Like building a set of ears. There is no more of this stuff, yet, we just did that song. I was surprised to find out that it's actually some sort of traditional chinese song... I suppose one that translates well to guitar.

Righteous, Geofferz. :isay:

I woke up this morning not wanting to celebrate America's birthday. At all. I wish to postpone it a day or two.

Rolled up sweats? Check. Generic offensive gesture? Check. Massive bong? Check.

Certainly there is no place for me in heaven.

It is quite novel to hit, but I would say that it's a little impractical. Bud doesn't even taste good through it, once you've milked it proper the smoke's been sitting in the chamber for so long it starts to go stale and tastes pretty gnartown. I much prefer a more standard width 2-footer, myself. 'Tis my friend's bong.

hmm I can imagine. My friend has a 2 footer that he sometimes fills with ice and a bit of water, it's very nice and feels so fresh :love: I can't really handle bongs now though, it's too much and I end up feeling too high and wrapped up in my own thoughts to even contemplate talking to anyone :lol: Last time we used it we watched this episode of Through The Wormhole and it was too much for me :lol:

Found a partner in crime for my game development. Got some very interesting ideas going. Just ordered a USB controller so I can develop for console controls, and have started working on the basic mechanics. Right now, that means hammering out the details on the 2D Player movement controls, which are a bit touchy right now.

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/13689561/Game% ... 20Test.rar

That is the build I am on right now. Obviously nothing very impressive and more or less just thrown together, but it's something.

I am trying to get a song that i initially tried to write well more than ten years ago, to work correctly today. Stupid fucking thing is like eight minutes long now, and it doesn't seem to have any extra parts in it. Normally i would just cut it into three, but that never worked for this one either.

I just realized that due to the timing of one of the parts, it spells out TUUURRRRDDDD, in morse code at one point.

Like IT knows it is a pile of shit, but still, i persist in refusing to simply accept the fact.

Classic.

Oh, i was (slightly) wrong. It actually spells out TUUUURRRRDDD. Same basic concept obviously.

Hmm. Now... if i play the part the way i originally wrote it a million years ago, it spells out KKKKWWWWAKKN.

Which kind of looks/sounds a bit like Elmer Fudd, stuttering a tad perhaps, but, talking about sea monsters or something.

It might or might not be be telling of my current state of mind, that i actually feel, at this stage, that this is likely to be an improvement.

:D

Started watching Breaking Bad again last night, forgot just how good this series is. Didn't remember certain bits being as tedious and uncomfortable to watch. Enjoying looking out for all the colour foreshadowing stuff this time.
