So just now at the burger place I sometimes go for lunch, there was this real gruff lady behind me line and the chef, addressing her, started to say "What would you like, sir?" and then realized he was a she and tried to save it and it came out as a very distinct "sirm". I almost lost my shit.

Night one of Gothtoberfest was pretty great. Everybody got all tanked and good times were had. Now I gotta go sound check myself before I sound wreck myself.

YOUR PAL,
Brian

Should you feel the icy chill of Loki's blackened tendrils twisting 'round your dark and tainted soul, well that is because Gothtoberfest is starting tonight. Pretty pumped.

(I also head that "Question Mark" kicks ass.)

eevilyounggirl and I are early into playing through the new Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for the Wii.

Pretty good! Changes from the first title took a little getting used to, but I'm diggin' it. No Moon Knight, but it looks like Iron Fist (my rebound date) becomes playable at some point.

And Blade can vampire bite people for health. That's actually probably my favorite part.

Andrew Sega came over yesterday to help me get some shit ready for Rev, but when I came out to open the gate for him, I totally locked myself out of the apartment sans shoes, i.e. "Die Hard style". Andrew then drove me & my socks all the way back downtown to where Katja was taking a painting class so I could get keys from her. He's a mensch, this guy.

Just got back from lunch w/ Katja at this super inexpensive riverside place we sometimes go to and guess who was there cooking and promoting his new book?

Holy shit! It's Martin Yan!

Growing up, I used to watch that show with my brother and sister, pretty much exclusively for the humor. Good times.

Hey, I found a pair of sunglasses left at our place, presumably from the last Gothsicle Magic Super Party. They yours?

My Inquiry Discombobulates Internets

Wed, 02 Sep 2009 23:32:32 GMT

MIDI Chain Question:

I have a Virus TI Desktop, MIDI keyboard controller and a soundcard (Cubase) and I'm avoiding the whole USB/VST interface jankity jank on the Virus.

I'm trying to be able to send midi data to from the Virus to Cubase, from cubase to the controller, and then from the controller to the Virus. Basically, I want to be able to "play" the Virus with the keyboard and have Cubase record that midi data, along with any knob twiddling I do on the Virus.

I tried "Cubase out>in keyboard controller out>in Virus out>in back to Cubase". I was able to play the Virus with the keyboard, but Cubase wasn't recording any notes played on the keyboard, only knob stuff from the Virus.

Is there anyway this can be accomplished with straight MIDI?

chillin' like a
