Highlighting a recent studio addition: ADAT lightpipe. I’m befuddled by how this technology works, but somehow eight tracks of audio can hop on a beam of light (literally), and go from my DAW (computer recording interface) to my mixing desk.
I got back into music-making eleven-plus years ago, doing everything via software. About five years ago, I began transitioning from software synths to real ones, but kept my recording / mixing tasks in the computer (referred to as in the box). Then a little over a year ago, I began transitioning from software to hardware for that.
So, this is the latest addition. Always learning.
