Derek and I have been crossing paths on the west coast and seeming to be making summer vacation a priority over new IHR shows!
Shame on us!
We’ve met up at Whistler for some dinner – both our families were conicidentally up there on overlapping vacations. But I can confess that we have been planning the next show – should be a good one.
Derek is planning to leverage his latest vacation to do a segment on music and sound reinforcement at Disneyland. I have an interview with Randy Bowser and David Townsend who, with the assistance of Cakewalk Sonar and Garritan Libraries are hosting the Orchestral Library Shootout .
You’ll either have to wait for IHR 82 or go to the OLS site to find out why there’s a picture of the Enterprise here…

Dave and new Vancouverite John Tidey have just set up a Meetup group for Vancouver home recording enthusiasts. Why not join and find out when we’ll be getting together next?

Although the page is years old now, it’s been making the rounds again, so I’ll post it: Iggy and the Stooges’ concert rider is the best one I’ve ever seen. Hilarious, self-effacing, and entirely reasonable. If I were in charge of a venue, I’d go out of my way to accommodate these guys.

Dave and I had planned to record IHR #81 sometime this month, but with a fluctuating schedule for my chemotherapy and other busy stuff, we have not managed it. Watch for our next episode of Inside Home Recording in June instead.
On the plus side, my kids and I did manage to visit Dave and his family and meet their new puppy.
While you’re waiting for the next IHR, go listen to the most recent episode of our pal Hens’s Sounds Good podcast if you haven’t already. And congratulations to him and his wife for their new baby Gloria!

We all know about the “swing” settings in DAWs, drum machines, and so on, which gives a jazzy, swingy feel to beats by lengthening the first part of each beat and shortening the second part. But until now, it wasn’t all that easy to “swingify” existing complete recordings.
Now there’s a program written in the Python language called The Swinger, and its web page has some bizarre but convincing examples of applying the “swing” effect to songs by The Police, Dire Straits, Prince, The Beatles, Metallica (particularly funny), Daft Punk, Guns ‘n’ Roses, Journey, and Jefferson Airplane. Go listen.
Thanks for the link to Andy Baio.

In IHR #80, I mentioned that I’d post some links on how to build your own spring and plate reverbs (if you’re so inclined). I, personally, have quite a few other things that occupy my “to-do” (and “honey-do”) list before trying to tackel these, but it looks like it’d be fun:
And just for the heck of it, a few of the more interesting links I found out there:
