New SX tutorial video series starting... part-1 is online - part 2 being added tonight

oh yeah!... the new system makes it so easy to knock them out, I did 2 over the wekend between other stuff.

Part-1 is up, zipped downloadable DIVX format .AVI video finished at 720 x 576 so you can watch it full-screen if you like and it still looks ok, (43mb d/load)

we've managed to get a better image for an even smaller filesize now by experimenting for ages with different custom renders - the video is a full 1/2 hour in length at only 42mb!

part-2 is being checked right now prior to rendering for the www and will DEFINATELY be added tonight

Parts 1 & 2 cover intro stuff... Intro to the arrage area, how the grid & snap all works both in the arrange & key edit windows (piano roll edit)... plus other little required bits and bobs noobs should know to get cracking & make some music inc' using the line tools various poermeatations for doing shit like drawing in gate-controller moves etc

Part-3 is going to be DRUM-MAP tutorial... Part-4 will move on to apply the same tools, snap & quantise tricks as used in arrange & edit windows to work with the track-automation.... then we'll move on, etc etc

i reckon it'll require mebbe 6 or 7 'intro' parts before we can get to the "Making a song from scratch using stuff we've previously learned"

Plus, Joy of joys, we managed to also get a system setup so SX can play VSTi's while being filmed with the screen-grab s/w, so it's going to be pretty cool the further in we go cos we can show stuff and you can hear it.

anyways, if you're a Cubase Noob, this isnt like a manual where you have to wade thru every tiny detail bit by bit just to glean the bits you DO need to do the work. The series only covers the required stuff to get working, you can look up tiny more obscure features in the manual.

cheers

next up for video is the final BCF footage for SX, and then an additional video for using 2 x BCF with SX & LOGIC, then we're back to new parts for the SX series... (somewhere we'll fit in Part-2 of the e-mu 1820m, patchmix s/w walkthru) then we'll be up to date.

stay tooned!

too late for that, you could fry an egg on my forehead i reckon. What infuriates me is they did this already 6 months ago, they dig the whole frikkin street up bi-annualy. I reckon it's some insider 'councillor & his contracter mates firm' job, I mean for gods sake how many times do you need to keeep fixing the same thing, AND by law we are sposed to receive advanced notice, which we never do of course. If you try and find out what the fuck is happening and for how long they steer you to a (get this) 'Customer support line'.... yeah right, cos i'm a 'customer'... "This road i bought is faulty!"

lol

yay!.. i got one victory over the dreaded council today. The bastards have been sending out car removal team to 'steal' one car a night from outside our building.. when they resurfaced the road outside they added double yellow lines but all the signs still say you can park after 6:30... anyways after persueing the buggers for all last week on the hpone and checking the rules etc they admit they did it wrong cos i discovered they have to go thru an application process to change lines and they cant produce the paperwork to back it up... so they will repaint it with a SINGLE yellow within 7 days, which also means all tenants & their visitors who've been towed over the last 12 months will be able to claim the money back AND sue if they lost work! (it's 200 quid for a tow fine here!)

bastards, just a bunch of faceless self interested arseholes riding ruffshod over the community.
