Sound City

The documentary on Sound City was incredible. It was not only a candid look into the storied history of a legendary studio, but also into an analog, tape-based era long gone.

Dave Grohl has the Midas touch. Go watch Sound City right now!

Seriously, Apple Computers are a Joke

It's quite comical to me how Apple computers function. I perceive it like a child playing in the sandbox that doesn't want to share their box of cookies with you. There is so much potential and capability with an Apple machine, they just choose not to let you utilize it.

Perhaps Windows is too user-friendly. That was sarcasm, people.

I attended a lecture on common maintenance procedures for the recording studio, and the focus was on Macs. To restate, I realize a large portion of the multimedia industry runs on Mac. I am perfectly adept at The workflow of a Mac

Gibson vs. Epiphone

Sure, Gibson has the notoriety, but Epiphone makes damn good guitars. Many people prefers Epiphones to Gibsons purely because Epiphones have certain necks that are entirely their own, in addition to many other specifications.

Many, many players even endorse Epiphone as readily as they do Gibson. When it comes to live performance, however, I've noticed that these same players rely solely on Gibson for their show.

I just think it's interesting that when it comes time to truly throw down, Gibson is the only one they go to...

PS

I own and play both brands. Of course Gibsons are "technically" better, but I've played some Epis that just smoke. Epiphone makes a mean semi-hollow (I'm looking at you Dot!), and they are more than worth considering. To my mind, there is little difference between a high-end Epiphone and a low-end Gibson.
