GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ What Do You Do On Sundays?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jul 3 2011, 06:34 PM

The question is simple... What do you do on Sundays?

Posted by: MonkeyDAthos Jul 3 2011, 07:21 PM

Sunday is my "don't do nothing day", i just watch a couple of animes and ....listen music till the day end.

seems like I am constantly channel surfing hoping that they will eventually have something on worth watching-they hardly ever do ,so I end up naping the day away while thinking- tomorrow I have to go to work- and of course that bums me out,got to love sundays

I go to church, and in between morning and evening services I usually play guitar.

That's the bad thing about Sundays... when you have to do something that you don't like on Monday.. you can't enjoy Sunday... that'w why I love when we have a holiday on mondays! smile.gif

If it's sunny day, I like to walk with my family somewhere in the nature smile.gif

Record vocals, I usually do all my vocal takes on Sundays. other than that, nothing...

Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Jul 3 2011, 09:17 PM

On Sunday's I do video chat and on the forum haha biggrin.gif

Next to that, I like to practice, do some walks outside, or if I have the chance to go somewhere (preferably in the morning! biggrin.gif )

On Sundays I usually go to church in the mornings, and then come home and play guitar, mostly stuff related to theory. After that I usually take a nap and rest up for monday morning! tongue.gif

Cool plans! Today is very cold here in Argentina so I'm staying at home playing the guitar and having fun at GMC! biggrin.gif
I'll look for any lesson to learn from our archieve.. smile.gif

Sundays, hmmm, I sometimes have video recording sessions for all the GMC stuff and usually family lunch with my mom and dad smile.gif otherwise, dunno..I'm the kind of guy that doesn't take Sundays too seriously - that means I can work on Sundays if I have stuff to do tongue.gif

Posted by: tonymiro Jul 4 2011, 12:25 PM

Sometimes it's social/family time sometimes I have to work.

This Sunday it was social as we had some friends visit from the UK. Did end up talking about work a lot though as he's a senior engineer/producer for BBC Radio 4. Lots of discussion about real time non-destructive audio editing, how LP HP EQ filters alter waveshapes and that sort of thing.

Posted by: Fran Jul 4 2011, 03:28 PM

Sundays are only good to make Saturday's possible laugh.gif

I usually go to the movies, or watch some TV series and play some PS3 smile.gif

yeah, something similar happens to me.. If I have work to do, I do it... but I try to avoid setting private lessons or studio recordings with clients on Sundays.

Amazing discussion! I'd like to know the conclusions! biggrin.gif

Main conclusions were:

1/Non destructive real time editing is great in sadie and pyra, and to a great extent helps justify the price of both. To a great extent both progs are a bit bloated - too much unnecessary bells and whistles, like the inclusion of Ozone in sadie - just silly to include that in a pro end daw that costs over 7000 Euros and which is aimed at the pro market where any of likely to use the daw will already have hardware/software significantly better. Would be nice to see realtime filter down to Audition but not likely to happen. Adobe also need to get rid of a lot of the bloat and go back to the 2 track of Cool Edit rather than the multi-track it's got now. So there's a huge hole in the pro end market betwen Audiiton at the low price end and sadie/pyra at the top end.

Some discussion of why both of us dislike PT.

2/ Waveform shapes do alter when you use a LP (and even MP) HPF. If you aren't careful this can result in unintended signal gain which may sound counter-intuitive when you're filtering here to attenutate the signal. All the more reason to keep levels down below digital zero. Also talked about how waveforms are not accurately replicated in Ozone when you upsample - seems to be a coding error as neither of us have sen it whne upsampling using other programs or hardware.

3/ Lots of discussion about mixing issues/mistakes - particularly due to poor monitoring. Also how digital has resulted in new engineers who have little experience in gain staging and balancing equpiment and who don't really seem to understand the background to audio editing. Some chat about how much easier it was to cue tape and how track markers etc don't compare.

Sundays are usually music day for me. I have band rehearsals on Sundays or do some composing (like I did yesterday).
I also tend to practice playing more on Sundays and do some sport activities (tennis or bike rides).

Posted by: Ben Higgins Jul 4 2011, 07:29 PM

All days blend into one for me ! smile.gif

The only notable thing that happens on Sunday eve is band practice smile.gif

I have 2 boys, 4 and 7. Sunday is spent doing whatever they want to do.

Then dinner at the wife's parents.

Great stuff man! It's awesome how much information you have about audio! I'd like to have a long chat with you! biggrin.gif

Usually end up at the beach in Santa Barbara with the wife and two little ones.. great way to spend the day before returning to work the next day. I always manage to sneak in some guitar playing in the later afternoon cool.gif

Cheers!
