I think I’ve written about it before, but I just want to reiterate that OSCulator is a fucking awesome piece of software and everyone who makes music that involves Macs should buy it. I’ve been fighting since last night trying to get osc from ableton live (which doesn’t speak OSC unless you get a $300 add-on [...]
I think I mentioned in an earlier post that I was working on a video for The Silver Pines, a San Marcos/Austin band I’m friends with. Well, I had been having problems working with the footage I shot, which was essentially me shooting alone with one camera and a couple of members of the band, [...]
