[11:37] < orphans> lawouach, ping?
[11:41] < Lawouach_> pong
[11:41] < Lawouach_> how are you mate?
[11:41] < Lawouach_> had a nice break?
[11:42] < orphans> not too bad ta, but have been without the internet for about three weeks, and won't be getting it for another couple
[11:42] < orphans> (hence general permanent awayness)
[11:42] < orphans> you had a good couple of weeks?
[11:43] < Lawouach_> been alright yeah
[11:43] < Lawouach_> got my laptop back
[11:43] < orphans> working?
[11:43] < Lawouach_> but Acer found funny to reinstall Windows and erase my entire hard drive
[11:43] < orphans> hilarious :(
[11:43] < Lawouach_> I had not backed up everything
[11:43] < Lawouach_> yeah wel...
[11:43] < Lawouach_> it's not too bad
[11:43] < Lawouach_> I can record again
[11:44] < Lawouach_> but damn linux and audio recording just sucks
[11:44] < Lawouach_> why did they make it so complicated?
[11:44] < orphans> :)
[11:44] < Lawouach_> the whole source/sink connection circus isn't funny and ardour won't capture any audio
[11:44] < orphans> I set up my mates pc for doing it on vista the other day, it was magic. All you did was press buttons and things happened
[11:44] < Lawouach_> audacity just doesn't even register with jack as it should
[11:44] < Lawouach_> yeah
[11:44] < Lawouach_> same here
[11:45] < Lawouach_> I installed the m-audio drivers, plugged the sound card and recorded
[11:45] < Lawouach_> I'm just unhappy at having to reboot each time I write the next golden record
[11:45] < orphans> :)
[11:45] < Lawouach_> I'm looking at buying a digital portable 4-track
[11:46] < orphans> heh, I bought an analog (cassette) one off ebay
[11:46] < orphans> it's amazing being able to just sit down and press record without all the faffing around
[11:46] < Lawouach_> I have one already
[11:46] < Lawouach_> but the recording sound is a bit too vintage :)
[11:46] < Lawouach_> it's just rather dead :)
[11:46] < orphans> yeah, I quite like the lo-fi thing
[11:46] < Lawouach_> a yamaha MT-120
[11:47] < Lawouach_> http://www.thomann.de/gb/mackie_by_tapco_mix_220_fx.htm < -- dunno what this one is worth but it's rather cheap
[11:47] < orphans> I got the cheapest portastudio money can buy
[11:47] < Lawouach_> http://www.thomann.de/gb/boss_micro_br.htm
[11:47] < Lawouach_> That's the one I wanna buy
[11:48] < Lawouach_> no fuss any longer
[11:48] < Lawouach_> just plug and hit record
[11:48] < Lawouach_> well, then, play of course :)
[11:48] < orphans> looks nice
[11:49] < Lawouach_> it does, doesn't it? :)
[11:49] < Lawouach_> anyway
[11:49] < Lawouach_> so when are you back to normal schedule? when do you start your corse?
[11:49] < Lawouach_> course
[11:49] < orphans> course starts the 27th
[11:50] < orphans> so hopefully I'll be moved and online by then, but I'm more and more skeptical as the days go by
[11:50] < orphans> getting bounced around between our estate agent and landlady atm
[11:52] < orphans> Lawouach_: given that I've managed to procure a pc for a bit do you know what we need to send in as the code sample to google yet?
[11:55] < Lawouach_> nope
[11:55] < Lawouach_> no idea
[11:55] < Lawouach_> should send a message to Michael if you can
[11:55] < Lawouach_> safest route
[11:56] < orphans> ok, will do. On list?
[11:57] < Lawouach_> Yeah that could be helpful to everyone
[11:58] < orphans> ok, cool - I'll get that off now
[12:39] < orphans> Lawouach_: ok, have sent a quick email to the list, and I'm off home now. I'll hopefully be back online within the next couple of weeks, all things being equal.
