An update on the new synnack material.

Progress continued to be made on the next Synnack release. Last weekend, Clint and I got together to sort through the 10 gigabytes or so of recordings we made with the modular last year.

It’s been strange going back through and listening to them again with fresh ears. Things of note:

• We recorded so much material, that I have no recollection of swathes of it. This made for some nice surprises.

• I expected it to be a lot more work to find bits that worked together, but it seems to be coming together remarkably quickly. Last weekend we managed to get rough mixes of quite a few tracks done.
• Given I don’t remember a bunch of those recordings, I have no recollection what gear was used to create them. This will make for interesting live versions.
• Thinking back to when we recorded these tracks, I didn’t have a whole bunch of modules back then. I didn’t even have the AFG (now I have two), let alone the more recent awesome modules like the hertz donut, Z-DSP, and a slew of other fun toys. As tempting as it is to create a bunch more tracks using these, finishing what we’ve done so far has priority.

As all the previous guesstimates on when it’s going to be finished have been wrong, I’m just going to say that “soon” has never been closer.
