Making the Cut
This post comes to you from the depths of my basement. This afternoon is rapidly turning into evening as I have been making some serious progress on the Appendix A project today. I’ve got a probable set list for the CD. So step 2 is over.
Step 3, which I’ve been knee-deep in since about 2:00 this afternoon is listening to different versions of the songs to pull out the best one. I’ve also been pulling some of the more “classic” moments off of disk as well, since we may be putting some of those moments between songs.
Here’s how I’ve been doing this stage. To be quite blunt, I’m tired of the basement, so I am pulling all the good moments from each disk into 1 file. Then I’ll chop/edit that file as needed. That way I can do this while I watch The Simpsons or Family Guy. Also, that’ll keep my wife from forgetting what I look like.
Nap time is over now, and the kids (and wife) are stirring upstairs again, so I’m going to call it quits on this for today. You guys are going to love Appendix A. I’m having a blast doing all this work.
