Daaaahhhhh-eeeeelll

So I've finally hooked up my Mbox with the Factory Bundle and after a few mis-steps; abandoning old computer and reinstalling in newer laptop with more RAM, removing the old version, installing the free update, installing the plug-ins and just plain playing around, I can now get sound out of my mic and recorded in an Mbox session.JOY!!!

This is really exciting for me. I've been researching podcasting for awhile and have been pretty jazzed about the medium since I started listening to a few of them. Keep an ear out for podcasts including myself and the creator of this. I'm also thinking about starting my own personal podcast as an extension of my blog and voiceover work. It's sort of a "my chocolate fell in my own peanut butter scenario." What can I say? My house is a mess right now: this could actually happen.

Until then, I've got lots of work to do figuring this stuff out. Thankfully 48 hours of tutorials with Pro Tools Videos was included with the bundle. That's as many lessons as I can squeeze into 48 consecutive hours. It's like a buffet for my brain. Hmmm...maybe I'll sign up this weekend and hole up in my little apartment.

In the meantime, I'm still a little frustrated. I have gotten sound recorded which is a big step but I'm still battling with this intensely annoying buzz/hiss in the background. I may have to download some Noise Reduction software. I'm not sure as at this point I have no idea what I'm doing. Then I remembered my own personal MBOX Guardian Angel. Well, at least I hope so. St. Dale of the Soundwaves will you hear my prayer? Please tell me how to get rid of that annoying buzz.

Daaahhhhlll?

NOTE: Cousin, can you forward this to your amazingly talented and handsome husband?
