Well, another Halloween has come and gone and still.... No Great Pumpkin.

We spent this evening sitting on the front porch of our new house handing out candy to the kids and meeting new neighbours.

It's been a while getting here, but we finally got the keys to our new house yesterday and have already started moving in. I've got a huge job ahead of me though. Most of our belongings are still in a storage locker and I expect that I will be tackling about 90% of the move on my own. I've got my work cut out for me over the next couple of weeks.

Over the past couple of months I've been working on making the technical side of my recording process better. I've bought new interfaces that allow me to connect analog and midi recording devices through Firewire and USB, bought a new mixer and condenser mic and picked up a new laptop computer to make it all portable. This would definitely give me a better frequency range than my computer's Sound Blaster allowed.

The room I have to work in now still needs some modifications to make it great for recording. I'll need to put acoustic panels on the walls to reduce the echo, but I expected that. What I really wanted was a space that I could create a separate studio area, but I didn't quite get that. But what I got is better than what I had before.

I expect soon I'll be able to get my first project out of my new work space. So what's the next song contest? I've already got a great idea for a Christmas song.
