Fascinating. There is an entire world of collecting and arranging audio files for a project. I am entirely used to working with collections of audio files that are used as a set, and should be contained within the project. An entire world of possibilities of creating projects with audio from many sources with no really good reason to copy into a project.

Certainly something to think about. At the minimum cataloging and filing project audio first might make a lot of sense for larger projects with original recorded tracks and processed tracks. Reference tracks?

I’ve been fortunate to play with some of the baddest bass players on the planet, and all of them have asked me to play bass at one time or another. To help be your own bassist, here are a few examples that will strengthen your hand independence as well as add some spice to your left hand. Always remember that as a keyboardist, you already use your left hand more than you know.

Friday Tips: The Dynamic Brightener for Guitar — PreSonus BlogPreSonus Blog:

When you play an acoustic guitar harder, it not only gets louder, but brighter. Dry, electric guitar doesn’t have that quality…by comparison, the electrified sound by itself is somewhat lifeless.
