Nope, they have no problems with each other- as businesses.
However, when it comes to my personal life, they refuse to work together.
When I upgraded to Leopard, my version of ProTools became incompatible. I cannot upgrade, since I bought the program three years ago, and they are no longer supporting that version. And so, it’s impossible for me to record any semblance of a demo. I’ve tried with a backup interface I have, with shitty preamps, using Quicktime as the software, but it sounds like complete ass.
I’ll have to dual-install Tiger in the near future, but for the meantime- no demos.
You’ll just have to settle for pretty pictures, instead. Like this mock-up of Devi Ever’s WORKHORSE:

Computers suck, NEWS

I have been trying in vain for the past few days to cobble together some live videos of me playing with my looper pedal at home. However, my computer has been crashing like the dickens whenever I try to do anything more CPU-intensive than typing my name. And so, I’m bringing it in to get a looking-over tonight.
I’m in the process of backing everything up, and will be driving it to the store in a little bit. That being said, there probably won’t be much content posted over the next week or so except for maybe some updates to the site pages and things of less-than-evocative nature.
HOWEVER- after I get the computer back, I’ll be posting (at least once a week) videos of those live performances. Some will be songs you’ve heard on the site, others will be covers of my favorite artists, and others still will be never-before-heard demos. So stick around. And if you subscribe to the feed, the video-podcasts (of sorts) will begin shooting out over the internet and all over your RSS reader as soon as I begin posting them. Hmm.
Stay cool or dry or warm or whatever the opposite of uncomfortable is for you, wherever you may be, and I’ll see you in a few days.
