but then there's the upgraded version:

then there's always:

i also thought this was kind of cool, but i don't know how much i would actually use it...

i also thought it'd be nice to have a few treasures or random things:

and how cool would it be to have a harmonium?

i think i'll have between $700 and $1000

[sleepyhead]

maybe even an omnichord?

[Forrest]

Mmm.. 16 seconds of delay.


And what would you not do with a guitar synth?

[sleepyhead]

hmm... i don't really need delay. i have plenty.

[Forrest]

Then get a synth.

[cifirrekcuT]

No mics? You're going to need a couple sweet mics to put those processors to ample use.

[sleepyhead]

what processors?

[Forrest]

The flesh processors.

[cifirrekcuT]

The blue thing on the right looks like a compressor or a gate, the grey thing in the lower left looks like a compressor or limiter and the green-faced things look like something similar.

[sleepyhead]

that's the m-box. it'd be nice to have, but i don't know how much home recording i'd be doing in the dorms. i'm afraid not much.

[cifirrekcuT]

Oh, you can do plenty. Death Cab did most of their first album out of their dorm room in, I believe, Buchanan Towers. Rudy recorded the vocals in the closet of Nautilus's and Whiddon's room, and most of the engineering as well.

I think the dorms I'm in would be pretty good for recording big, naturally-reverbed stuff. The walls are all cinder block and the floors are all linoleum. Also mostly uninhabited during the day.
