  • Playing & recording music at home

    From Nightfox to All on Wed Jan 24 09:44:06 2024
    I've enjoyed playing guitar and keybaord/synthesizer for a long time. Lately I haven't been playing music very much though.. I also have Mixcraft (software) for my PC to record music, but I haven't done much with that either. Sometimes I feel bad for not playing music very much, because it is a hobby I've always enjoyed, and I feel like I should keep practicing. I've thought it would be cool to record more music on my PC.

    Gear that I own:
    Guitars: 1 acoustic and a few electrics, mainly Strat-style.

    Keyboard: A Roland Juno-D 61-key synthesizer, and a Zynthian v5 (Raspberry Pi-based kit effects/synthesizer box that you build yourself).
    I also have a Roland MT-32 (revision 2) that I bought on eBay a few years ago. I planned to use it for music, even though it's probably more popular for PC games. I found a SoundFont set for the Zynthian that provides the Roland MT-32 sounds via the Zynthian though, so I've pondered selling the MT-32.

    Effects pedals: Boss Super Chorus, DigiTech RV-7 reverb, Boss SY-1 synthesizer effects pedal, BeatBuddy drum pedal, and a couple others

    Amps: Fender Mustang III v2 (solid-state modeling amp), Roland Micro Cube

    I keep my guitar at church now, as that's the majority of my play.

    I'm the opposite. :-) I have ONE electric - a Gretch from the
    Baldwin era, and several acoustics. :-)

    You can see me on our church streaming and my wife playing
