GOLDENER is Evelyn Davis (piano/voice) and me (modular synth/pro tools). Our self-titled EP is out today, on bandcamp and the streamers. I love these songs and am so proud of them. Unfortunately this is hello and goodbye.

For any psychos who want a list of all your installed Pro Tools plugins + manufacturers, here is a shell script that does that Written the old fashioned way (no AI, swearing at xpath)
#!/bin/bash

cd "/Library/Application Support/avid/Audio/Plug-Ins"

for i in *.aaxplugin */*.aaxplugin ; do
    NAME=`echo "${i}" | sed 's/\.aaxplugin//'`
    BUNDLE=`xmllint --xpath \
        'string(//key[contains(., "CFBundleIdentifier")]/following::string[1])' \
        "${i}/Contents/Info.plist"`
    COMPANY=`echo ${BUNDLE} | sed 's/[^.]*.//;s/\..*//'`
    echo -e "${COMPANY}\t${NAME}"
done |

kurt ballou appreciation post
So you feel like your overall job changes on metal records as compared to, say, an indie pop record?

[Indie pop productions] require more insight as to the song and the lyrics and what kind of feeling the songwriter's trying to invoke. When you're recording a metal band, you know what feeling they're trying to evoke. [laughs] You just think, "Satan, Satan, Satan." When you're EQ'ing the bass guitar you're like "Satan, Satan, Satan." The snare drum - "Satan, Satan." It's more the technical challenge of, "How do I achieve the maximum amount of Satan?"

a cardinal rule of working in recording studios, often forgotten in this modern age: think VERY HARD before you tell the band you're working with "hey, this kinda sounds like Genesis"

Studio wiring will continue until morale improves Does someone make 8.5x20 printer paper? Patchbay labels are too crafty / multistep
Labels for Switchcraft patchbays, in their plastic sleeves

Printed on 2 sheets on color laser, ends cut off to get the cutting marks right at the end of the paper, taped together for alignment, cut at the blank center, then taped again, cut very carefully with a roller cutter. Looks good, takes too long

Seeing a lot of people battle it out on the internet about this pro tools metering thing I have no take but please remember: most audio people do not understand how software works
FB post by Mark Lewis: “Dave Hagen i see that we have some pretty credible mutual friends. All of us have spent time with avid personally.
All of us know that meters do not process audio.
The conversation cant possibly be entertained farther than that.
Keith Ross the meters are not in the audio path.”
