Perhaps you were dazzled and perplexed by yesterday’s sale announcement. What is Craig up to! Egad!

Well, if you happen to read weblar, you will know that I’m planning a return to graduate school in the fall of 2006. It is a ways off, but I’m planning on becoming a full-time student, and we don’t know what our living conditions will be like — especially early on.

Hence, I am totally streamlining my studio. The first, most impulsive, aspect of this transformation is the new computer that I ordered last night, the Alienware mj-12m 7700 mobile desktop. This powerful little beast should carry me well into this grand new endeavor.

With the money from selling my equipment, I will probably buy one of the new Mackie Onyx mixers.

The end result of this will be a highly software-centric new studio, consisting entirely of gear that I will actually use. It’s sad to see a lot of that stuff go, but I’m excited about all these changes.
