No matter how I try to get away from trackers and get into using "real" tools, I always come back. I miss all the little things, like almost sample accurate control of pitch, being able to see everything at once and most importantly, not having to use the mouse. > You prolific types shame me for my inability to finish a song. 50+ > snippits of stuff sitting on the hard drive, and nothing to show. I spent a long time having hardly anything I considered complete. I still have to push myself to actually do the final listening, tweaking, compressing, encoding and uploading. I've always been the same with everything. Once I can see the end, I lose interest. I'm the same with my research - I stop caring not when I've done the hard bit, but when I realise that I can. But then I realised that I really needed feedback. Having people listen and comment on my stuff has made a big difference. So has just knowing that people will listen to it. -- "I'd crawl over an acre of 'Visual This++' and 'Integrated Development That' to get to gcc, Emacs, and gdb. Thank you."
