Brians Briefings ….

I haven’t had a colonoscopy yet and I asked my doctor if I’m too late, he said maybe you are, I hear you’ve been using MixBus lately and that can lead to constipation in some people so let’s keep that in mind. I said, no problem. I’ll think I will hold off, hope it’s not a mistake.

We have been using a lot of NEMBRINI apps on our Ipads, great apps for guitar and bass!

We are discovering MixBus 11! Nice! Check out their website here.

Today I observed a plugin from Kiive Audio, and it is killer. It practically plays by itself. Hers a link to the plugin. Kiive Audio. It’s for vocals so check it out.

Here is another one I like. Universal Audio. I just bought this high-powered bass shaker, I put it under my toilet for those really awesome moments, you should try it!

Time for pizza, it’s Friday!

I love this site, Production Expert, a lot of great articles. It’s the most visited music and post production websites on the web.

Hey, don’t forget we are on just about all the streaming platforms! Check out this particular page we built on Bandcamp, it’s really cool, and you can purchase tunes from there.

I am contemplating picking up the OX from UA, it’s a load box for my amp and it’s great for getting the sweet spot of your amps tone at low volumes. Check it out if you’re looking for a new toy!

I’m digging these new bass guitars over at Eastwood! Great site to shop on. Check it out

I’m really having a good time writing my parts for some of our new songs. Even though I’m getting some crap from one of our bandmates, I’m still going to find the magic get some good quality tracks down. I’ll show him!

Daniels Doings….

The process of making videos is getting easier, it’s repeat, repeat, repeat. Just keep at it and eventually I’ll be a master. Will see what happens.

MixBus 11 is so easy and it’s their best version ever! Going to spend some time with it.

I’ve been working on this website for a week straight with a few hours off in between. I’m adding new stuff and learning every day. here is a link to a YouTube playlist I listen to. YT Prog Playlist…………….

Today I’m checking out the UAD Dream ’65 Reverb Amplifier plugin. Really cool! Check it out here!

Just Checked out this cool plugin, it’s the Influx Pro, it’s a wave shaper, it does a bunch of things to enhance your tracks.

Another cool plugin, Baby Audio Crystalline, a next generation algorithmic reverb, nice!

We are working on a new site to promote our work visit it here. It is pretty cool!

I’m trying to get this website to be as best as it can be. If you see anything that can be improved just let me know.

Check out these cool guitars from Rivolta. Beautiful and awesome!

I recently listened to the new song from #Band-Maid called “ZEN”, amazing. I have over the recent months been deeply interested in Japanese rock, especially the all-female bands like #Kaqriyoterror, #Blacknazarene, #Mad Jamie, #Not secured, Loose Ends and others. They are all amazing fun bands. Great song writing and vocals. While it is sung in mostly Japanese, I totally love how it makes me feel.

Mitch’s Manifest…..

I just picked up the Fender Tone Master Pro Multi-effects Guitar Workstation. It’s pretty awesome! I’m on my way to new discoveries and creativity, just need to make more time.

Check this out from Plugin Alliance,
it’s the Brainworx’s AMEK 200 it’s a console plugin that combines the sound of the AMEK EQ 200, AMEK Mastering Compressor, and the gate/expander of the AMEK 9099. The complexities of physically integrating the components and the cost associated with such a hardware unit make the AMEK 200 an analog-modeled dream come true.

Just picked up this cool tremolo from
SpaceMan Effects, it’s the Voyager II: Dynamic Tremolo.

Today is the best day I can think of. It’s great to be alive and look forward to many, many more. Since leaving Schmegmoid 1 I’ve been off and on in a rut. I’m going to get out of it, and I think I am already out of. I know if I get back to writing tunes with my buds, I will feel amazing again. Music is what really makes me happy. So, watch out, I’m coming.

Check out one of my earliest influences. This was remastered in 2007. Genesis-A Trick of the Tail

We just posted an ad on Facebook for a singer. We need someone to finish up this cool tune with some vocals and lyrics that will take the song somewhere special.

Today I’m checking out the Knuckles ‘92 pedal from Universal Audio, very cool! It a high gain pedal with six classic mic and speaker pairings, built in TS-style OD/boost, and noise gate. Amazing

I’m checking out this interface from Universal Audio. Have any of you tried these? Let me know.

I’m practicing my parts for the new tunes in my spare time and should have something to record soon. I know the guys are anxious. I just heard the demo of “Everybody Knows”, that’s going to be fun. Can’t wait for that song to be on the radio!
