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
- 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!)
