My studio is up and running - so far...

Take one part deep-seeded need, one part incentive and one part frustratingly long hours trying to fix a problem that you can't locate only for it to somehow fix itself without me doing anything and voila - I have my home studio up and running!  I expect to get several e-mails from manufacturers and retailers trying to fix the problem I was having.  I figure it will be a good learning experience so I won't have to depend on luck in the future.

Anyway, as with any new toy, I stayed up later than I expected tonight just so I could play with it right away.  The result is a thirty second sample of my first attempt at a bid submission.  I've been asked to compose some music for an upcoming DVD and I've only got a couple of weeks to make a decision on my submission.  I'm not worried...  At least, not now that I have my studio functioning.

I'll post some pictures soon; I'm self-conscious enough to want to do some cleaning up first.  Till then, thanks for reading!
