I finished a remix for a guy known as Philos on the forums I am a part of, http://www.serious-sounds.net/. This was for a remix competition, and my entry ended up being the winner! I'm very excited with how it turned out.

I've created a tutorial on how to automate all parts (even the classically hidden parts of the synth in envelope automation) of any soft synth in Sonar 8. This took me a long time to figure out, and even after buying the Sonar 8 Power! book I still had to figure it out basically on my own. I put it up on YouTube and the http://www.serious-sounds.net/ music production community, of which I am an active member. I hope people searching for the answer on how to do this find the tutorial, as I know it would have been just what I needed when I was looking.

Well, I have figured out how this CMS works pretty well now, and am getting the skeleton of my website together. Can't wait until I've got things sailing along!

I have decided to alter the website and use a Content Management System (CMS) for the foundation. The reason for this alteration was due to the content of my site; I have snippets of updates on myself, professional information, and various projects and other "sectionally organized" material. I feel this will be the best layout for the website, and will lend to an easily navigable interface.
