OK,

First of all, my wife has the best ears in the family. I "always" get her
blessing on mixes because I know I can trust her ears. It's literally like
having an mastering engineer in the studio. Her ears are incredibly
good/sensitive and she's always right. Amy hasn't ventured up to the studio
all weekend while I've been in my mad scientist mode and has been waiting
for me to get my head around getting a mix together for her to listen to in
SX.

So I get something happening that I think sounds good and call her up to
give it a listen. I like it personally and I'm rocking out with my Steinberg
Houston controller, fader automation....all the cool bells and whistles.
System is running perfectly, etc. etc. I'm even thinking that I can use this
one for a while to see if I'll even need a more powerful rig it's soooo
stable. I'm feeling like I've finally found something I can live with
here.........soooooo.........she comes in to the control room and I start
playing back this 30+ track project.


Amy doesn't know squat about the finer points of recording/processing, etc.
she just knows what she likes and doesn't give a flip about what it takes to
achieve it............so she's sitting there through the first half of the
song and I can see a little frown start. She looks at me and says "is that
midi?........what's going on with this????.........it sounds like it's midi
or something ......... sort of artificial...... and the whole thing sounds
harsh to me. Sorry honey but that's not gonna' work. I liked the old
system......what's wrong with it? Why are we changing?"

Now this is coming from someone who would "love" to see me simplify things
around here as you guys can well imagine.

OK.........so I guess I'll try the Pulsar
thing............^%$&*&^%$%^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

;oP
