Last month I spent some time looking around for useful tools to make it easier for my band to do its thing when we hit the road next Summer. I remembered seeing an interesting web-app on one of the social news sites that was basically like Base Camp for bands. After doing some digging, I found it again. Bandize is an all-in-one set of tools for managing a professional band.

Wow! It’s been a while since I last updated the ol’ Stereo Bus. But I haven’t forgotten about it. I’m settling into San Francisco nicely, keeping myself very busy. Unfortunately, space is too expensive for me to open up the studio that I planned to open here, but the good news is I’ve started playing bass guitar for the band Cuban Cigar Crisis. CCC is gearing up for recording an album Summer 2010 and I’m already doing research into the production process. I have decided that we should go with a high sample-rate recording this time around. I’ve been working pretty much exclusively at 24-bit/44.1khz but now DAWs are fast enough and hard drives are cheap enough that there’s no good reason not to step it up. 192khz is simply overkill. Most DACs simply upsample to achieve that rate and response can actually be poorer as a result. This leaves the choice between 96khz and 88.2khz.
