I'm still thinking about how I could do something musical live online and also make it entertaining. Replay in Neon generally involves me looking at my phone... not very entertaining. Maybe if I filmed myself while doing it and ocassionally looked up and smiled winsomely that would be enough.

@ashnoodle could you integrate tap dance into the process?

@wordsmith Aaaaah. If I could get my tap shoes from when I was 9 to fit me. My mum might still have them.

@wordsmith I should really give doing something live proper thinking space.

@ashnoodle it's always a pleasure being able to see folk doing their thing live!

Treated myself to an Akai MPX8 sample player this week in another step towards doing something live. Along with the SH4D, I've got lots of ideas for live sequence noodles of music I've already released and new stuff.

Working through ideas for rejigging Midnight Detective Club etc tracks into something I'm more comfortable with sequencing (and doing the odd vocal) live. Probably more minimal than my usual releases, but I think taking it back to a 1979/1980 "I've got 3 synths and a drum machine" feel will work.

Enjoying reworking a few of my older tracks with the SH4D synth / sequencer / drum machine. Even playing via the teeny weeny buttons is fun. Trying to do synth parts live, and keeping mistakes if they don't cause a problem in the track.

Realised that a song I've revisited a few times over the past 15 years (but never really had a solid musical home) fits nicely with a jam I created on the SH4D. Next step is to get a vocal fx chain in OBS setup. #fedimusic

Did another live music test last night - mainly testing instrument volumes and live vocals. Looking to do a plan B for vocals early on (maybe pre-recorded/sampled), but also with the idea that I want to do some live. The home set up is tricky, as I'm too self conscious of the neighbours below my usual music setup and my vocals end up being a whisper. Will look at shifting things into the kitchen instead when I'm working on the live setup. #fedimusician

Got a vocal effects chain together in OBS studio that I'm happy with (in prep for a music live stream) - keeping it minimal and using resource light VST plugins. It's really handy that you can check the CPU use in OBS. Currently not going over 10% when recording and using video. Going to add in the synth for the next one and see what the impact is and how it all sits together.
