well, we need to talk, i'll get back to you about specifics, but . . .
i don't 'mac', i got a sony viao rx 880, souped with a raedon 1200 card, a scuzzi for the hp cd burner, and the creative 5.1 external sound thingy. but i think i will build my own tower next time. . . i ride HAL like the dog he is.
i also have two tascam 4 trks, an old butchered porta-2, and a mark2 that i found on ebay for a 100 bucks, (a very good deal).
but 'it's wednesday' was done at the wreck station using my little walkman recorder, then punched thru the creative box, mixed in acid and dumped to soundclick as an mp3 . . . that was the ez part. the writing was draining.
the thing is the software, i use almost all sony/sonic foundry stuff, acid, sound forge, vegas video. it could be considered expensive, but sony has a great set of beginner stuff, like the studio series, (i think they are like 50 bucks or so and well worth it if you can afford. and there is all kinds of trial vers to see if ya like. . .).
as for the technique, it's just a kinda do it, do it, do it thing.
i started this digital thingy about 7 yrs ago and am hooked. . . the next wave, and the horizons are boundless!
let's talk!

oh, and as far as the poems that helskel writes, i just saw a song immediately . . . tho i had no idea how it would turn out. it just struck me as unique. i am glad he gave me a crack at making him a songwriter, which he is now. . .

i know i came on a lil' strong, it is just so natural to me. . .
to flip a recording on tape to a mp3 ya need something like a converter, to turn an analog sound to a digital file. i'll get back w/ some freebies asap.
as far as the 4trk, look on ebay b4 they kill the buy-now thingy. the deals are too good, my tascam mark2 is a great little recorder, and they are just a 100 bucks, (i was a blood donor for that puppy) . . .
anyways, e-me and i'll help ya out, then we'll start an internet band, W/ helskel's song for the 1st hit!
