Not really - I didn't say it was a random fact about myself. :wink:

Anyway.... Getting back on topic....

"Rock & Roll!" Was my first Sesame Street tape that I saw as a kid, and it's my personal favorite to this day.

And no, it's not just because of "Telephone Rock." :scary: :stick_out_tongue:

I..... Actually hate the word audio.

Okay, not really, that's just tounge and cheek humor, but I hate working in audio.

Because I'm just not a big sound guy when it comes to doing live sound on boards and mixing songs in pro tools.

I could see @Old Thunder doing something like that with some metal groups if I didn't see him as an English professor.

Ah.

My only experience with sound boards is when I was one of my school's DJs in Grade 8 - basically, my rememberance of it all is there were a series of tiny dials, but 2-3 of them in particular were connected to the stereo system that played multiple CDs at once: turning one dial all the way down would fade out one CD, while turning another dial all the way up would fade in another. Then, there was also a slider that was the master volume for our broadcast, and we were forbidden from sliding up past a certain point, because it would over-modulate the volume, thus causing too much distortion and interference.

We also had an iMac connected to the whole thing as well, that had a library of sound effects and such that we would goof off with - I remember one day, we played around with a horse neighing, and all kinds of crashing sounds, implying that a horse was loose in our sound booth and destroying everything.
