A full day. Started by editing and adding the 'Eye To Hand To Paper' vocals to the track. The sibilants were notably stronger, the frequencies squeakingly high, due to the new NT1. I thought that I needed a 12dB/oct low pass filter to fix this, so quickly programmed one for Prometheus. It was ideal! I then adjusted some default values for the Prometheus reverbs, a planned upgrade.
Then, work on the 'Mr Tambourine Man' vocals, which certainly sound better than the first take, primarily because of better timing accuracy due to a metronome in the guide track. This needs new tambourines I think. We have no plans for this track, merely to complete it and store it for the future.
In between this I've been polishing a metal sweet tin, cleaning it of paint. I tried paint remover, but it barely touched the paint, so decided to burn the paint off with a blowtorch, then use wire wool to clean its charred shell. This worked well, but there are a few recesses and tiny areas which are difficult to access.
After that, filing the new Fall in Green album which is now complete. The PRS codes were finalised today, so I had to update the sheet music and my records, then burn the archive CD master, and file other materials (and delete others). I've also burned archive copies of the other Fall in Green albums for Deborah, and prepared digital copies of everything too.
One other job was resetting some of yesterday's programming. The Band Distortion changes were perhaps not so useful or intuitive, so I reversed those.
A full and efficient day overall, partly due to focusing on strict jobs in turn. I must try to complete new vocals and new songs next. I've a few other goals this month, but I'd need to firmly commit to them, and when to do them, to make progress.
Onwards we march.
