Helloween Live @ Fort Canning!

Just not very long ago, cassette tapes of metal church, skid row, alice cooper were still rewinding in my cassette player. :) Never thought that these big hair dudes will actually play here. I guess no gigs means no booze!

Cool stuffs, even more amazing gears. I guessed everyone has already heard the bing, bang and boom around 'In Rainbows'. Here's the video to compliment it.

Yet another chapter...

Well... 2007's the craziest year ever! Never have I experienced so much before in just a year. And I'm loving the end of this wonderful chapter. I'll defintely remember this for life. Since the death of activity here for the past 2 months, here's a lil' peek at what happened for the past 2 months. Nothing but work, work, and more work... Hahaha... :) I'm loving it. Cheers to the next chapter!

Happy New Year

~ABBA~

No more champagne

And the fireworks are through

Here we are,

me and you

Feeling lost and feeling blue

Its the end of the party

And the morning seems so grey

So unlike yesterday

Nows the time for us to say...

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have a vision now and then

Of a world where every neighbour is a friend

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have our hopes, our will to try

If we dont we might as well lay down and die

You and I

Sometimes I see

How the brave new world arrives

And I see how it thrives

In the ashes of our lives

Oh yes, man is a fool

And he thinks hell be okay

Dragging on, feet of clay

Never knowing hes astray

Keeps on going anyway...

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have a vision now and then

Of a world where every neighbour is a friend

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have our hopes, our will to try

If we dont we might as well lay down and die

You and I

Seems to me now

That the dreams we had before

Are all dead, nothing more

Than confetti on the floor

Its the end of a decade

In another ten years time

Who can say what well find

What lies waiting down the line

In the end of eighty-nine...

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have a vision now and then

Of a world where every neighbour is a friend

Happy new year

Happy new year

May we all have our hopes, our will to try

If we dont we might as well lay down and die

You and I

reacTable

The reactable is a collaborative electronic music instrument with a tabletop tangible multi-touch interface. Several simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by moving and rotating physical objects on a luminous round table surface. By moving and relating these objects, representing components of a classic modular synthesizer, users can create complex and dynamic sonic topologies, with generators, filters and modulators, in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer or graspable flow-controlled programming language.

There's no space for food on this table. :) The amount of work involved to create this amazing phenomenon... I'm just over-awed. Genius...

Digidesign... DODOdesign?

I was once in awe with this beauty. A control surface that can control almost everything in Protools in realtime.

• 16 Focusrite Preamps (YUMMY!),


• automation of plugin parameters(MAGIC!),


• 5.1 mixing capability,


• and all these via 1 ethernet cable!

Yeah yeah yeah, I'm not a fan of Protools, but I don't mind bending backwards just to record/mix on this babe.

And now this babe has aged into this...

According to Digidesign, we can now 'upgrade' the old 16 Focusrite Class A preamps to the new 16 'high quality, low noise' preamps ??? And pay again if you wanna upgrade to Protools 7.4 ??? My poor baby has definately aged... the golden years are 'gone with the wind'...

Symphony of Destruction !!!

Hell Yeah! More than a decade ago, I was listening to the cassette 'Countdown to Extinction'. Now the the good ol' nasal Dave is still screeching in front of me! hahaha...

The interesting thing about such gigs is the simplicity of it. Clean stage free of any Jack Daniels, Jim Beams, TS9s, Wah pedals, only a setlist stuck right beside the mic stand. Even the FOH tent was unusually neat, with a serious lack of beer cans, and outboards effects and preamps, and compressors and.... Thanks to Yamaha's PM5D which effectively robbed any chances of eye-candy for gearslutz ! Arrrgghhhh!!!

*A night of horns*

What was interesting was that when I was in the moshpit, this young minah chick beside me was actually singing to most of the songs. Here's where I believe, music has no generation gap. :)Check out equipment list here. http://focalproaudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1350#1350
