NAMM Wrap-Up...
Okay, I know long-time readers are used to a daily NAMM round-up, wherein I make biting comments about the latest and greatest from our fine business. Long-time readers also know that I'm not, as a habit, an exhibitor…

January's 10 Questions, Special NAMM Edition, And Some Other Shit...
For the January edition of 10 Questions, I'll be at NAMM, obviously. So I'll do the answers video at the show itself, on Saturday, Jan. 24th. The Google Moderator page for asking your questions and voting on your…

So Long, 2014...
Happy New Year, AI-ers! 2014 was, like most recent years, pretty awesome for me personally and Audio Damage as a company. I don't believe in luck (or, well, magic of any sort) but if I did, I'd think I had some. What's…

10 Answers...
That was actually quite fun to do, as it turned out. Other than glancing over the questions in Google Moderator a couple times, I didn't do any preparation, so the answers are more-or-less totally extemporaneous. (I had…

Ten Questions?
So I have this idea of doing a monthly YouTube video. "PARTY!!!" you all scream at the top of your lungs! You're all a bunch of cynics, and frankly I'm amazed I'm friends with you, because I'm not cynical at all…

Movin' Right Along...
I won't lie to you. The main point of this post is to roll that Doctorow photo below the fold so I don't have to see his stupid face when I check the site. However, I will use this opportunity to provide a general…

Dear Cory Doctorow: Please Shut The Fuck Up About Music...
Cory Doctorow portrait by Jonathan Worth, altered by me for comedic effect. Cory Doctorow did a Q&A on iO9 today, wherein he provided everything you need to know about making a living in the arts in the Internet Age…

It's Gettin' Hot In Herre...
So, a glance at the calendar (well, a glance at Calendar.app, which is the functional equivalent) shows that NAMM 2015 is just around the corner. It seems like only 10 months ago I was at NAMM 2014, trying to keep the…

All That Jazz...
It's official. I've reached peak Number Of Projects I Can Do At One Time. Which is, as it turns out, almost entirely, but not completely, unlike Peak Oil. First, as many of you know, I'm in the process of making a new…

On Working In The Creative Industries...
(Sorry for embedding this from Daum, and the inevitable confusion that will cause, but two things: first, I'm a shareholder, so fucking take your Korean YouTube and like it, and second, the Paley Center, for reasons…

On Creativity...
Long-time readers will know my fascination with the discussion of creativity, and its care and feeding; in point of fact, many of you come here specifically for that discussion when it rears its head, and not (evidence…

Sequencer 1 Now Available...
As the title says. We're "soft-launching" Sequencer 1 today, shipping on Friday. We got the first few units in the office today, and we're going to sell this little batch direct before we stock the retailers. If you hit…

Various Things And Stuff...
And now I want to start every sentence with a conjunction, in the hopes that it'll annoy Chris Killer. But that's just petty. Or is it? Anyhow, this is my usual "here's what we're up to" post that I put up in lieu of…

Shitcockery...
The video above is outstanding. There's no other way to describe it. I'm not a big Goldie fan, being more on the Roni Size side of the fence when it comes to rollers, but the Heritage Orchestra performing Goldie, with…

Notes In A Row...
The next big hardware product from Audio Damage, Sequencer 1, is about to go in to production (one could argue it has actually already entered that state, as the front panels were ordered and the 1st Article is being…
