I gave up recording and tried to devote myself to playing instruments
better. They aren't mutually exclusive of course, which is why I'm
dipping my toes back in the water. But I am out of "production". The
DAW is a laptop with a FirePod (assuming I get it to work again). I am
trying to limit my focus to composition.

It's something I should have done years and years ago.

That's cool. I took a break from playing live for a few years and did
nothing but studio work. Now I'm playing live a lot and have a cool
acoustic kit for that, and am still doing stuff in the studio on the pad
kit all the time too. I don't hardly have time for anything else though.

It always amazed me that you could (at least it seemed) churn out a song
a week. I wish I could get some sort of throughput happening.

OK, I pulled the trigger today. I can't justify sinking lots of dollars
into this endeavor, so I went for the Chinese Cheapies... Behringer
Truth B2031A active monitors, 8" woofer, 1" tweeter, 150W/75W biamped.
And I went for refurbs from Musiciansfriend, for about $70 cheaper than
new. I hope I don't regret that.

Anyway, thanks, y'all for the support.
