#AudioEngineer I have the weirdest situation. I use an UMC1820 with a Focusrite Octopre MKII Dynamic.
Both worked together under Linux, until they didn't: The Locked light wasn't shining anymore and no signal came from the pre.
I connected the interface to a Win PC, also, no Locked LED and no sound from the pre.
But: When I set the Focusrite to Internal clock and the UMC to OpticalIn so that the pre gives the clock to the UMC, then the devices are locked and I get sound from the pre to my DAW.
Is the UMC broken? What am I doing wrong?

Wir sind weiterhin fleißig mit den den Aufnahmen zu unserem ersten Album beschäftigt. Da ist es natürlich hilfreich, dass unser Gitarrist Chris vom Beruf Toningenieur ist. Der Proberaum wurde vorübergehend umgebaut und 16-fach mikrofoniert, um mit den Drum-Recordings die Grundlage für die restlichen Spuren zu schaffen.

2026 RPM Challenge Day 1/28

So I have this arm injury thing right now. I think it’s going to be okay. I am way better today than yesterday, and yesterday was better than the day before. I just haven’t been able to play guitar at all because I haven’t been able to move my arm. I think that by the time the RPM Challenge will require me to record guitar tracks I will be well enough to get by, but the idea of this whole thing crashing and burning before I even start is a real thing.

On top of the injury, I am traveling for the entire last week of February. That means that all of my tracking needs to be done before I leave home on February 22nd. I can make time for mixing while I’m on the road, but not for recording. This year’s project is under a serious time crunch. I don’t think a double album is in the cards this time around. I think I might just get to 10 songs or 35 minutes (the minimum requirements for success) and stop. We’ll have to see.

Day one was yesterday and I noodled out some MIDI bass and drums for one song idea. I have a weird sort of theme in mind as far as song forms and arrangements go. Nothing stylistically or lyrically or anything like that. Just an idea of how I want verses and choruses to be related. This first song idea fits that theme. Other than that, nothing to report on day one.

Let’s hope my left arm starts playing along soon. I don’t want to break my streak of success. I’ve pulled this off every year since 2012 and I really don’t want to stop now.

【5分で聞く♪文春新書】加山竜司著『「推し」という病』 by 本の話 ポッドキャスト

「推し」という言葉は、多くの場合、「好きなものを応援する」ポジティブな言葉として使われています。しかし、アニメグッズを購入したり、アイドルのコンサートに参加したりすることだけでなく、たとえば地下アイドルライブでのチェキの大量購入、ホストクラブやメンズ・コンセプトカフェでの過激な売り掛けなどを表す際にも、この言葉は使われます。少なくとも、言葉のうえでは、学生のささやかな「推し」と、身を滅ぼすほどの出費をともなう「推し」が地続きとなっている現状です。「推し」の何が人々を病的なまでにエスカレートさせていくのかについて、多数の当事者に取材してきた『「推し」という病』(文春新書)の著者・加山竜司さんにお話を伺います。

Made a new recording yesterday of #Rautavaara's O ihr Zärtlichen, for an audition. Trying out my recording gear, I used #Ardour as my DAW for recording and mixing, and #Shotcut for editing the video.

Turned out quite well, I must say, though I do want to move a bit more, next time 🙈 You live and you learn...
