Installment 37; In Limbo Land; Music creation
.
This blog is about music creation. Hopefully I can fill it up specifically about that and a few other things.
.
First; I'm beginning to see in my imagination; as it expands; asking some friends to go with me on a train ride to the big city; Ill keep working with the universe on this; it would be my first train ride since a small child; its my first train ride since working with my inner being on this subject.
.
Music;
.
I got my computer stuff set up on 2 fronts. PC for computer games/ Art/ General use except Facebook stuff. This computer sits on my cool wonderous Art desk; stuff I've been talking talking about in my blogs up to this point; what is really cool; the solidness of this drafting/Art desk; its low height of 27inch; and that cool crayon ink pen/marker pencil tray that spans the length of the desk; it sits in front right under the front ridge of the desk; grab a crayon and play with it on paper; with easel sitting to the right partly sitting on the table top of the desk; I just grab a pen and start drawing; put the pen back start gaming or writing or what ever with the computer.
.
So; I have Notation software on this computer with 27inch monitor. I have a few DAw's; Digital Audio workstations for recording or creating beats n stuff.
.
Will I add more to this set up for music; Hmm? maybe not! I might get another music midi keyboard; a small one for the desk.
Although I've ran a midi keyboard to the side; on the left side of the desk and the concept worked out; I opted out on this idea; For this is a gaming pc and an art pc; but not a music pC. So; For the sake of keeping this space specific to its intended use and nature; I will not have a musical synth or midi board or digital piano next to it; But I might. I might Have a synth here; maybe. however, it would have to have its own recording ability. So; digital piano or synth... Yes; I would do that; but I don't want anything hooked up to the PC; I just don't because this is not where I want the work to be.
And with that!!@!!

.
In the adjoining room;' I have another desk; This is the music station; keyboard and desk and mac book pro M1 and extra monitor; running Logic. And in the future; what other music software I want to use; but nothing else; I do have an art program on it; so; when I go train riding; I taking my MacBook and maybe have a few games on board; an art program and notation program or beat making program like FL Studios.
.
.
So; IVe experimented and graduated through experience to 100% accept the 2 individual desk computer set up instead of mixing both machines on one desk.
I originally wanted one computer for music and bought that/set that up; However, found myself wanting to set up music creation stuff for my PC as well; and the answer is NO! Ill keep a few music software packages on the PC and that's all. I can write some beats; I can write some notation compositions and that's it from that gaming PC.
.
The music set up on the other desk will allow me to build a mini music studio freely to any standard I wish.
Thus; the Art/Gaming computer has one purpose; the music computer in the other room has one purpose.
If I get bored and want to play the piano and record it; Ill have to get up; go to the other room; fire it up; And play piano hooked up the the mac computer. and that's the way it rolls. No combining my Gaming computer into a full on music experience; that's not what its for.
.
Ill have to learn to be more disciplined and play the midi keyboard in the other room hooked up to the mac for music piano creation experience ; Why is this commandment so important? because I was cheating; I was pulling a music keyboard; hooking it up to my PC experience. And I don't need or want to do that. What I really want is; I want the Art computer space for just that and nothing else. And I want the music space for nothing else just music...
