How Lonely Vocals, Prometheus v3.59, New Book Begins

A slower day yesterday, started by re-recording the main vocals for 'How Lonely' as they were too gentle before, but now seem a little harsh. I've stepped back somewhat from the music to reflect. After that, a trip to a friend to help with computer maintenance. I also updated Prometheus again after finding some minor bugs. This allowed me to add a feature to batch load and save instruments.

I'm still considering options regarding ArtsLab. One option is to upload all of the episodes to YouTube but mask off the commercial song content. This would be a better solution than MixCloud, which would/will ultimately delete it all anyway.

Today, I've charged into a new book about oil painting and have written about 5000 words. This is something I've wanted to write for a while. One key element is that it is more of a reference guide than a how-to book, something foe beginners and masters alike, but something which can be referred to over a lifetime. The order and structure will be unusual, and something a little like Cennini's book.
