Having a hard time getting off the ground with it so far this year.

For recording, I upgraded my 2 channel Presonus Audiobox to the 4 channel Audiobox 44vsl, purchased two Presonus Eureka channel strips and a Martin guitar and upgraded Studio One 2 Professional to Studio One 3 Professional.

I've not recorded a single track.

Have begun to record BIAB tracks to play along and practice.

Maybe your blog will give the bump that I need to jump start myself.

Good article and good points...


Study beats the heck out of neglect. One thing all forms of creativity have in common is prep time. That takes many forms, one of which is study.

At least you aren't letting the embers go out. The songs will come.
