Victor Wooten on Tapestry

I listen to the religious program "Tapestry" that airs on cbc quite regularly. This last podcast was an interview of the bass player Victor Wooten who just wrote a book called "The Music Lesson: A Spiritual Search for Growth Through Music" Just thought I'd share the link the podcast:

Soundproofing Windows with Homemade Plugs

Image
Window's are always going to be a real weak spot when trying to soundproof a room.  While we did a lot to soundproof the new space (blog on that here ) and it's working out great, I really wanted to make sure that the loud guitar amps and drums bleed out to the outside as little as possible. To that end I decided to make some window plugs out of some of the left overs from the reno.  I took some drywall pieces and sandwiched a bottle of green glue in-between them and then I screwed some wood on either side to fasten the pieces better.  To create an airtight seal I got some Green Glue Company floor joist tape and I wrapped it around the plug a few times. The tape stuck great to the drywall but not to itself so I shaved off any excess and used tuck tape to make sure it was held nicely in place. *** Update 2025: I should mention that in a new location I had to make another one of these and this time I used 3/4" MDF which I feel worked a lot better*** First we gotta ap...

Time Capsule Hard Drive Upgrade (1tb to to 2tb or 3tb)

Image
**** UPDATE**** I originally did this blog posting December, 2010.  My 2 tb drive recently died and I decided to try a 3 tb drive in the time capsule to get even more space.  Of course the net and the boards all have a lot of contradictory information but enough people said that the WD Green 3tb drive ( WD30EZRX )  worked fine.  I bought the boxed/retail kit version and had no problems.  You can scroll down to the bottom for a link to one on amazon.com).  Anyway, enjoy the post! Any business that has client's projects stored on it's hard drive should have a few different backup systems for said files. Hard drives do eventually fail and while there's ways to get files back those methods are expensive and not guaranteed. Hard drive space is so cheap now that there really is no excuse not to have multiple backups of your files. A few years ago Apple came out with Time Machine and it's hardware counterpart, the Time Capsule . Time Machine is Appl...

How to Make Your Suno AI Music Sound Professional: Vocals, Mixing, and Personal Touches

Image
I’m starting to get clients coming to me with music they’ve made using Suno and other AI music generators, so I figured I’d write a quick post on how I can help people get more out of those tools. I’ll skip the arguments for or against AI in music because, honestly, that debate feels pointless. These tools are here, they’re powerful, and it makes sense to use them to your advantage. For this post, I’ll just stick to Suno.com since that’s the one I’ve been experimenting with. After playing around with Suno , I have to admit I was impressed. I threw in some of my old songs and asked for remixes and I have to say some of them turned out fantastic. Then I tried using,  beats I’ve struggled to write to, dropped in a few lines for lyric ideas, and it came back with some surprisingly solid results. It’s clear that the more you feed it, the more you get out of it. I can definitely see myself tossing in new ideas, even just to spark inspiration.  I came to think of it as having a rea...
