  2. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

    August 26, 2008 by micah

    So I finally got me new keyboard today, only to learn that it requires a power adapter that it neither came with nor do I have… bummer.

    I’m still very excited about it though. For the past several years, I’ve been using a cheapo consumer keyboard for all of my recording stuff. While it did its job, it left me desiring more about 56.2% of the time. I had to keep it, though, because, at the time, I thought I would need to shell out something like $1000 to get a keyboard on the level I wanted. Recently, however, I’ve started to use Reason to do some offline synth magic. Reason is an amazing piece of software in itself, but on top of that, it had been pointed out to me that I could use it in realtime as a synth engine. The problem was my little consumer keyboard didn’t do so well live because the keys are light as a feather and there was about a half second delay between pressing a key and the sound coming. Plus the thing only had 61 keys. Now, with this awesome piece of fake ivory, I have 88 weighted keys of pure bliss. It doesn’t make any sound on its own(that’s why it’s so affordable), but hook it up to my computer, and the options are limitless. I also think I know how to exterminate the audio latency, but I can’t test it until I get my power adapter. So, it’s off to Wal-mart in a little while to find me a power source so I can start making some sweet tunes.


  3. Haircuts and Internet

    August 25, 2008 by micah

    I hate haircuts. Plain and simple. In 20 & 1/2 years of living, I’ve had maybe 3 that I’ve been happy with. After my haircut today, I think I’m going to create a document or something outlining exactly what I want with photographic examples and such. Maybe then I can start getting consistent cuts. Oh well…

    On another note, I finally have internet in my apartment. I never realized how much I did relied on the internet until I had to walk to the library in order to use it.


  4. Crusade 2008 Meeting #1

    August 19, 2008 by micah

    Wow… what a night! The opening Campus Crusade meeting absolutely rocked. What a way to kick off the year. I think God has some big things in store for us this year!

    Here’s what the band played, in case you’re interested:
    You Never Let Go - Kristian Stanfill
    Rejoice – Chris Tomlin
    Blessed Be Your Name - Matt Redman
    Everlasting God – Chris Tomlin

    On a side note: my brother won an iPod touch at one of the welcome back events at Clemson. How crazy is that?!


  5. New Apartment = Sweetness

    August 18, 2008 by micah

    I’m now about 85% moved in to the new apartment. It is freaking awesome. The only downside at the moment is that we don’t have internet yet. So for now I’m chilling out on campus trying to get some work done. My brother’s around here somewhere, but I haven’t found him yet.
