Back to school, impending LMV & new toys

As of a couple of weeks ago I've been sucked into the note factory. I'm auditing Jazz Materials at McGill. Very odd to be back in school after 10 years. Still trying to work out how to fit in.

Lars Mikael is going to stay with us for a couple of days this week. Hammond hacking time. Got some bus bars to clean, percussion switches to fix and a Leslie amp. to rebuild. Gonna be fun, fun, fun!

A couple of weeks ago we finally bit the bullet and got the Triton workstation we've been talking about forever. Vanessa has been messing with it and appears to like it. We also got a M-Audio 1814 FireWire interface and ProTools. It's going to be nice to be able to record and edit stuff here at home. Whether the Mac mini can carry the load remains to be seen...

It's getting cold out. Maybe I can turn off the A/C in the lab soon (Itanium 2 processors and air conditioners are natural enemies).
