COMPUTER MUSIC / recommend audio interface - what's your favorite?

« on: January 04, 2011, 03:37:30 am »

Since I started using computers in the process of musicmaking, I've been using a digidesign mbox (the original model).
It feels like it's about time for an upgrade and I'm curious what other peeps are using.

At the moment I don't really need more than 2 in/outs.
I need to record acoustic instruments and good quality recordings (soundwise, rest is up to me I guess)are needed.
ProTools compability would be nice, but obviously limits the options.
As I'm really tired of paying for every other upgrade of the software, I might switch to another application for mixing.

Any thought or suggestions would be much appreciated!

SELF PROMOTION / P Jørgensen - Soundtrack_Remix up for pre-order

« on: August 27, 2010, 05:02:00 am »

Hi All

Wanted to let you know that my new doublealbum entitled Soundtrack_Remix will be released by the lovely Under the Spire Recordings on september the 22nd, but is allready now available for pre-orders.
http://www.underthespire.co.uk/releases-buy/

I spent a great deal of last year composing the score for the movie "Kim" - a story about danish WWII freedom fighter Kim Malthe-Bruun directed by Morten Meldgaard.
On the first of the two discs nineteen tracks originally produced for the movie has been reedited and remixed to fit the album format. A Composers Cut if you will.
A mixture of piano pieces, strings, atmospheric electronic minimalism and crystalline tones easily makes this my most versatile album to date.

For the second disc I handed all the audio material for the soundtrack to ten of my favorite current artists and asked them to explore these sounds further.
I was extremely pleased that they accepted and am very proud of the end result.
To me, everyones unique sound clearly comes through on these ten remixes while still making for a cohesive whole. The ten artists are:
Will Long, Pawn, Rameses III, Chris Herbert, Machinefabriek, Peter Broderick, Seasons (pre-din), Jasper TX, Greg Davis and Jefre Cantu-Ledesma.

Soundtrack_Remix has allready been made Album Of The Week at Fluid Radio, where you can also read a full review of the Remix disc.

Mastered on Isle of Skye by a personal mastering hero of mine Denis Blackham the album comes in a 6-panel package designed by Meldgaard & Meldgaard and printed by Stumptown.
Included is also a booklet essay written by "Kim" director Morten Meldgaard.

The album has just been made available for pre-order over at the Spire website and as it's a limited edition release, I suggest you act now if interested.
