IT'S ON THE WAY!!!

I ordered the ProTools M-Box tonite, I’m so damn excited I could burst!

I needed other stuff to make ProTools work optimally with my pc, so I spent more money than I planned. Well, I kinda figured I would spend this much money really, so I’m still relatively pleased with the financial outcome. For anyone that’s interested, this is what I’ll have when it’s all setup:

- Dell Dimension 8200 with 1.5 GB of RDRAM (when I get some more money I’ll probably upgrade to 2GB of RAM, which is as much as this pc can take.)

- Digidesign M-Box with ProTools LE 6.9 Software

- Glyph 80GB Firewire Hard Drive

(enabled by a Firewire PCI card, since my pc didn’t have a firewire port, as most new pc’s do.)

- M-Audio Uno midi interface (which allows me to use all the bundled synth sounds in ProTools with my digital piano)

- Ibanez Artcore AS-83 semi-hollowbody guitar

- Fender Deluxe 40W 1×12 guitar amplifier. I don’t really use any effects at all except a little reverb. No pedals.

- Yamaha P-80 88 weighted-key digital piano

- Roland KC-300 100W keyboard amplifier

I also have a Martin acoustic guitar and a fun little Martin backpacker guitar, an old crappy Strat that I only play in emergency, and a Boss Dr. Rhythm DR-770. It’s really a sin that I’ve barely used this machine to much of it’s potential.

SOOOO, I should have this all setup soooon, and then if I’m not recording some cool-ass music by the end of the year, I’m fired. Really. I’ll fire myself, sell everything, and go back to work a stupid 9-5 job. You heard it here first.

I am so jealous, Jean… My computer is still in pieces in my basement — not that it’d do me much good if it was put together.

Blech! Bah humbug. :-(

(I am happy for you, though!)
