Filling In The Gaps




Ouch !
Has it really been 11 days since this was updated ? Hmm, it seems so.
Mr Lloyd, the usual bringer of all news AZ, is on a short break, so it's myself, Mr Reece, with the job of filling in the gaps, since October 6th.
Studio wise, it has been interesting.
A 'new' Studio PC in situ, has now been used on a few occasions, for a test run. It's not as simple as that, as we did have to keep referring back to the old one too. There are many things to be transferred from one to another, and believe me, that is not as simple as it sounds. But, we're nearly there.
In fact, about 80% there, I would say.
Ah, the rickety plinth - that's another story.
The plinth which holds everything here, by 'everything' I mean PCs, Printer, Scanner, Mixer, Minidisc Banks, Minidisc Players, CD Players etc etc is a little shaky. It is all being redesigned, recut, remade and remodelled, and part of the early stages of this was to have some of the supports cut away. That's made it interesting.
Don't lean too hard on it !!!
It's all fun - many changes afoot, but they do take time. We want to do it properly.

Nice to see Cupcake again - she breezed in to AZ Towers to lay down some recording, last weekend.
Expect to hear the dulcet tones of Cupcake in your ears within the next week, when we will upload the first of her new Programmes to our Pod. Thereafter, the show will be aired on Radio Seagull (twice), then RTI/Sky.
