All Hail The New RAM
I was starting to think I was loosing my sanity, especially on weekends with little to do on stuff that interests me outside of working on my music. I’ve been without the studio computer since January, and now a record is set for the longest amount of time spent away from composing.
I won’t go into the negative details about the drama with the warranty process, nor the possible outstanding issues, but I thought I’d do my happiness a favour and get back to work – by buying brand new RAM. Enough waiting. Within 48 hours the new pair had arrived, and they were a shiny new blue:
Open up my neglected studio mega-machine and find the empty slots:
In they go!
Nervous moments running a boot program called MemTest86+ to check their health:
Success! Renoise is up and churning out tunes I’ve not heard in 5 months! Superb!
What an amazing release this has been. Almost immediately I’ve got back into mix-editing, coming at many tracks with fresh decisive ears. Too many projects to mention to get back into, but one little step at a time will see much to come!
