Thanks! Singing lessons, I don't know, I'd like to work on my guitar
skills first. And my mixing/recording skills of course. Last Tuesday we
found out that we used the kick mic the wrong way around and that we had
to place it outside the bassdrum instead of inside :$ (it's an AKG D112)

They were very much impressed, especially when I connected my little
nanoKONTROL. Also it boots much faster and they are very happy with the
simple project template that I made for Qtractor (10 tracks and 10 buses
for 10 mic inputs). Within 15 minutes we're good to go. With Cubase that
was like an hour even though we have this Cubase manual/book. They were
also pleased with the results. And they will get the hang of it,
otherwise they use our drummer's MacBook with Garageband that has
already eaten up some nice recordings of spontaneous jams we did. Oh, I
thought I'd saved it but now I can't find the files anywhere...

Best,

Jeremy
