What's up, RMers?

[Kain Nobel]

Recording could be fun if everything was working correctly and I knew what I was doing already, but I've been trying to do some guitar stuff and its not turning out right yet. My best friend said that he "so wants to come over and hang out" so we can take turns playing guitar while the other controls the computer aspect of things. Should be a fun time, the blind leading the blind and all >.>

Most of what I'm having trouble with is a bunch of retarded little things, such as...

• I don't know what I'm doing yet (duh!)
  
• The amplifier to the computer is either too loud or too soft.
  
• For some reason, there is a crackle in one of my pedal effects chains.
  
• I cannot hear the playback on the computer until after I've recorded my riff.
  
• Every time I'm in the middle of something, my niece or my daughter has to interrupt me.
  
• This chair is uncomfortable.
  
• I still suck at playing guitar (kinda!)

Nevertheless, I will prevail! I'm realizing too that I might have to purchase Reaper on her mom's computer because trying to record in our personal bedroom, well... not the best place for my homie and I to work on music. Her mom's computer is in the "family room," I'm about to kick everybody out and turn it into my rock 'n roll hall of recording.
