I'm tired of bad gigs. The bar gigs..
The ones where the people look at you like you're inturrupting them.

I just got my cd back all duplicated and ready to go.

For years I've been using cool edit/audition for multitracking and mixing.
Now I'm getting tired of it. I had a horrible experience with the upgrade to audition 2.0, and returned it. Now I'm starting to realize that projects I worked on in 2.0 are corrupt in 1.5.. they don't work anymore...
I just bought the behringer bcf2000.. Its probably my first real introduction to midi.. I did try a while back to get into using a keyboard as a midi trigger, but I gave up.... I bought it to control Adobe Audition 1.5 and when I set it up, I was pretty dissapointed... I guess its just not what...
