Presents For The HollyDay ... :)

 So... In Israel, last week was a hollyday...
We actually celebrate the new year that begins  now, by the hebrew calander !!!
This hollyday name in Israel - Rosh-HaShana, and we use to say - have a great new year !!,
or, in hebrew - Shana-Tova !!!   :)

So.., for this hollyday, iv decide to pamper myself with some new little gifts!!!
Iv ordered, at first, a new (another) Elgato StreamDeck, the one with the 15 buttons, and im gonna use it for Podcast/Streaming sessions only.   The XL one i already have here in hand, will continue operate for casual use, as today's, i can't see myself working without it !!!

Second..., as you already know, today's im using the Logitech Blue-Yeti condencer, i love him, he serves me well and all, but iv decided to go pro, and iv ordered the - PodMic by Rode, the white version, that forced me to do a little search in Israel to find it, and it'll gonna get the USB\XLR version !!!
(If you ask yourslf where did i found it, so the new Rode-IL website selling this one) !!!   :)

And we will continue to the next product iv decide buying!!, and this is a new WebCam!!!
So, till now i use the - Elgato FaceCam 4k, pretty nice webcam, but iv decided to upgrade it, and iv ordered the -
Logitech MX Brio 4k Ultra HD      !!!   :)

That's almost all, as iv also ordered 2 USB hubs, i have so many gear here connected via usb to my pc, and i really need more usb outputs here !!

That's it for now, ohh... and!!!, this week is gonna be - Yom-Kipur!!, another wiered hollyday in Israel, it says we need to fast, no food, no water, no cigarrets, nothing...
So... as im not doind any of this, im gonna arrange the whole cable-spaggety here at this 2 boring days (that i actually love) !!!

Have a great new year ppl,
and - Gmar Chatima Tova !!!   :)

Jazz & Fusion Session !!!

So... This Tuesday, as usuall, iv uploaded a new Music Session to my YouTube channel:
Let's Get Real Radio !!!

And this time, the whole session was dedicated to Jazz & Fusion music, as iv picked 6 tracks, all of them i know from life except one, by Stanley Clarck, im not familliar at all about this artist, but as i said in this session, by mistake iv listened to this song, while i search good stuuf for this session, and iv decided to add him also !!!

Anyway, i think, technically, this session was pretty good, much more improved then last sessions, as i get familliar more and more from time to time with all my gear, i used alot the Rodecaster Duo and my Elgato StreamDeck on the fly, and this products are magic for Podcast creation, very convinient, make the job much easier and it was a pleasure to work with while recording this chapter !!!

Anyway... If u wanna listen to it, just go into my YouTube channel named:
Let's Get Real Radio !!! (By Nivosss - Me) !!!

And here's a link straight to the current chapter:

NJOY PPL ... and don't forget to Sub !!!   :)

Have a great new year - Shana Tova - From Israel !!!
Love u all...   :)

Got a Thought .......

 Listen up...
My head's working more hours than it should be, and i got a brilliant idea !!!
What if, one day, ull go to your music gear shop, and ull find that:
SPL just released the Crimson3, same as it is now, but this time, looks like a mixer!!! ???
I mean, instead of those rotarry knobs, you'v got the whole features it gives todays, but with faders !!!
From an Audio-Interface, ull get a mixer+interface, with this SPL Crimson3 quality !!!

After iv thought about it, iv talked to my Co-Pilot AI friend here,
and he sketched me the idea into a small image...
Looks pretty cool, but i thought it would look different, more bold, more heavy - just like the Crimson3 build from this heavy metal, with more massive faders... more vintage!!!

Anyway... i couldn't stay with this thought to myself and pray some day some SPL engineer will think about it too, so i left a msg on theyr website, with hope ... it'll make them think about it... i don't except that they will say "wowwww.... brilliant idea", and run to produce it, but who knows... maybe it'll make, one of them, to think about it deeply, and one day... ill find this product for sale somewhere....   :)

Just a thouhgt...
Who knows...
God Is Great !!!   :)

Just... Design...

 Let's talk about it !!!

I think... after all this race iv been pass through last era, iv got my own understandings & thoughts about myself... on how do i look and take things like that in life... and i have a conclussion...

I think... well... everything in life, is about design !!!
In my homie, i design my work-space... i mean... all time!!! - i love changes, ilove to keep it dynamic, with style, i know when things are sitting tight and right and when it's not... I actually can feel a room, just with a vision, and i know what should i do to make it LIVE!!!.... I think, i need to go with what life's tellling me to do... and it tells me to go with design !!!

Im pretty good with programs learning, after iv made an online course on Cubase, and i don't know all at 100%, but i can work todays and make something... btw!!! - even music producing, is a designing operation, if you look at it at the right point of view, i mean, you design what you wanna hear, it's just the same of putting a plant on desk couse u know it'll fit here and will gives the style u wanna see !!!...

Anyway!!... as it's a hollydays time in Israel now, but i think, after this era, im going on some online course, maybe ill start with Photoshop, than maybe Premiere, Illustrator and etc...

I think ill grow with this love of decorating/designing, and ill be a freelancer, and i just feel it, that this will be a great opportunity to make something im good with... and who knows... maybe ill make some bucks on the way !!!   :) 

So... Sound System is ready to rock with my - Let's Get Real Radio - music sessions project on Youtube !!!

My gaming channel on youtube keep updating with epic Boss-Fights moments on Youtube also, and streamings on Twitch !!!

This Life-Blog on Blogger is my diary... love to write here (even there aren't much viewers)...

Ohh... btw!!! --- Iv changed from OBS Studio to a new free program named - StreamLabs !!!,
After my last streaming on Twitch (with the game - The First Berserker: Khazan), it felt so stable and strong, much tougher than OBS, and the quality of the stream was much better, i think, im going to make all my streaming\recording projects with this new streaming app, it cought me good !!!

Ohhhh... another thing !!!, iv purchased a subscription to Canva website, just to make some graphic designs to my music sessions project, and it looks amazing... --- Consider trying also the Adobe Express, as i already have full access to it with my "all-included" subscription to Adobe, for Premiere and Photoshop, that mainly this programs in use for me, so, if ill find it better then the Canva services, ill save some money and cancle the the sub ....

Anyway !!!, thnx for reading... im gonna make a search around the net for good online graphic design courses (maybe even ill find a good one in Hebrew), and ill keep update here !!!

Have a great Friday !!!   :)

Let's Get Real ... :)

 Sooo ....

Finally, iv started uploading my works to the dedicated channel for my new project:
Let's Get Real Radio !!!

Anyway, the first session was improvization while im streaming live at Youtube,
and just pick some track/songs on the fly ... It worked amazing and i really enjoyed it!!1,
Then..., iv decided to improve all stuff around this podcast, so iv connected my RodeCaster Duo, my new Blue Yeti mic, iv purchased a sub to Canva website, and now, the graphix are cool, i use 2 webcams, one one my pretty face and the sec on the Caster, just to show the world im working with this mixer/audio interface, with 2 pc's, and i DJying between them while recording my session!!!

Anyway, yesterday iv uploaded to Youtubr my second session, with 7 music tracks, it was fun, but not perffect !!, i have still a way to pass and learn and get familiar with all this gear around here, so, i hope, from time to time, ill get better!!!

Also... iv uploaded this sec session to Spotify, the very first time in my life, and i wish it'll flow to more ppl around the world..!...

So... now... im just gonna get to the work of the 3rd session that will upload next week...
Every tuesday evening... that's what iv decide about the timing...

You ppl, have a great new year,
SHANA TOVA - from me - Nivosss, Israel... !!!   :)

A New Way To WorkAround !!!

 Hiiiii ppl !!!

Got some good stuff to tell this time !!!

First... Yesterday, was the very first time i go live stream on Youtube with my new project:
Let's Get Real Radio !!! --- I worked so simple, just to test the ground and undersand my new needs to this kind of music sessions streaming style !!! 

So., I'v just went live, start talking into my new Blue-Yeti mic, opened the Apple-Music desktop app, and improvised some songs i pretty love... The vibe was so amazing, i was so excited while streaming this session, and i had lots of tech-issues, English mistakes, i even got some "BlackOuts" while speaking, but, to say the true, it was sooo fun, and it feels so right, and for now, im getting preper to the next stream on this dedicated Youtube channel to this music+vibes sessions !!!

So... as i understand, i really need the Rodecaster Duo to make a "ComeBack" to my desk, as for this purpose, i mean, to switch, live, between tracks, and make it with the faders, and the all control Rodecaster can offer me to this situations, it's a perfect gear to do this job... 

I'v tried it today, and its work perffect !!!

If you wanna take a look and listen to the songs/tracks and to see me embarrassing myself, 
you'r very welcom to go into this link:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok... and for the continue of my sound journy, iv made some comprassions between 2 mics i have in hand now, and the results are pretty surprising !!!

So... iv connecte the mics:
Logitech Blue-Yeti - Classic Edition
Rode NT-1 (5gen)

At start, i was pretty sure that the sound of the NT is better,
consider it, iv connected both of them via USB to my pc ...

Then i made more integrations and tried many styles of recording with OBS Studio,
and the main thing i didn't love with the NT is that he's so sensitive to any tiny noise,
and my room is a regular room, not with acoustics and stuff, and finally, becouse of this reason,
iv chose to keep working with the Logitech. The sound is much more clear, not background noises, and for me, and the kind of works i do, this one is the winner for me !!!
(Plus, i really love the G HUB app on Win11, very simple, accessible and friendly).


So... that's it for today,
Look at my pretty desk around here... doesn't it lovely ?!?....  :)

We'll Never Be Blue !!!

 Hello ppl... How r ya today... to me, well, it's a perfect day of progress and inspiration !!!
And now you ask yourself, whattahell is goin on?!... I'll tell what !!! ...

So, Today, the new Logitech Blue-Yeti arrived to my homie, and im so surprised from this little piece of gear!!! --- First, when i unboxed it, while pulled it out of the box, it looks much bigger and heavier then what iv always thought about this mic!!!

He's a bold and heavy and gives you that feeling that you can trust him, just from the size and the fact that he build with heavy metal coatings !!!

and then..., iv just connected him via USB to my pc, and make a little test on OBS Studio, and ppl!!!... I think this one is gonna be the new member in my setup here, im gonna use him while streaming on Twitch (gaming)... and who knows... maybe even other new surprising things i have plans to achieve at the very close future !!! - keep follow me !!!

Ohh... another thing...
I'v purchased some desk stands for my studio monitors - Adam Audio T5V,
just to place them with the right possision to my ears.
You can see them on the pic here...
Waiting to get them also...

Have a great day ppl !!!   :)

Kind Of Blue...

 OK.... KEF LSX II - SOLD !!!! - and to a very nice persom i must say...

Anyway... ill keep moving with my current setup, old-school, vintage, analog... that's me... tha's what i like in sound & music, so be it !!! - i hope, and pretty sure, this guy who bought from me those speakers, is gonna have a great time with them... really, i think he will love them... !!!   :)

Any way... i think, for the next era in my life, i have only two things im waiting now:
- to the store delivery guy come and take the mounts iv purchased for the KEFs...
- to the new Logitech Blue Yetti mic to arrive at my home... - for the streaming sessions...

And... im so good to go... and so happy, that after all... well, iv lost about - 665$, after iv spent about 1860$... and... well... it feels much better, to know that i wasn't so idiot with this purchase after all... i mean.. iv been an idiot, but made some damage control, and did it on the best side i could... so.. im happy... and... pretty excited about this selling...  :)

Yalla... Blue Yetti... and im good to go....   :)

Have a great night !!!

Sell The KEFs...

Alllllllllllllrightt !!!

So... today's evening, someone who interested buying my KEF LSX II speakers will arrive here at my hommie !!
Just for the sale, iv made a sound station (very little one) with my KEF's speakers connected via USB to my laptop, so he wanna listen to them and check everything is ok with them before taking em....

Im pretty excited for this selling, i must say, and... just some last words to those speakers...
Well... they'r pretty lovely, the design is amazing and the sound is cute, but for a person like me.., well i need the music, while listening, to shake my room here when playing, not just to give me a good (and very precise ims), and... well... maybe for gamers, those pairs will be nice... more then just "nice", they feel perfect while gaming, iv already tried them with some games like:
Ghost Of Tsushima - wowww... cinematic shit around here, sounds like a cinema house...
same with - The First Berserker: Khazan... sounds amazinggggg !!!

but, spending 2000 dollars just to get a good sound for gaming, well, if i was a millioner, i would'nt care, but i can't efford myself this luxury, and keep so expensive speakers just to enjoy gaming time... 

So... im staying with my lovely, amazing, perffect setup build with:
Adam Audio T5V monitors.
A&H ZEDi-8 analog mixer.
SPL Crimson3 audio interface.
Rode NT1 (5gen) - that lately iv decided connecting him via USB to my pc, gives me the best sound while streaming on Twitch.

You'r very welcom to follow my channel on Twitch here:

Anyway... Take another last look at my beautiful KEF LSX II speakers...
May the buyer will enjoy them better then me...
Have a great week everybody ...    :)

Fear & Loathing...

 Things that made me sad... Well... there are many of tham... along my life... but lately...

Lately... Iv got the understanding of - "GO WITH YOUR HEART!!! ALWAYSSSS"...
And i knew it'll end like that...

After iv spent about 7,000nis !!! - Im talking about 2,000 US Dollarsssss.., on speakers i don't even love... 
not the sound... and not the shape... I knew with all my heart, before purchasing them, that this shit is a TOY for kids who listening to shity music and don't even understand a shit about music & sound...
Fuck-Me !!! --- I knew it all over before purchasing this - KEF LSX II - speakers... fuck me....
So much money went for nothing, im gonna put this shitty speakers below my bed for good... 
Or maybe, if ill be lucky enough, ill succeed selling them to someone shitty enough to buy this shitty speakers... Fuckkkkkkkkk.... Damnnnnn.... Only the thought of this money... makes me so fuckin sad....

Anyway... Iv also purchased a smaller A&H mixer, and about that... well... i still have not a 100% openion about this gear, as i have to make some checks just to feel his vibe... And... well... im pretty sure, ill back to my very first setup, built from the ZED60-10fx (he's larger... loved his sound), with the SPL Crimson3 audio interface, that gives the best sound to my music.... that's it... I could save my 2000dollars if i was only listened to my heart that says - stay with the setup you really love, and .... damnnnn 2000dollars....

Anyway... iv finished watching now the movie -
Fear & Loathing in Las-Vegas...
Well... one of the best classics iv ever watched...
Me also, used to do drugs in my far past...
and every time im watching this movie... well...
it's kinda bring me back to the 90's....
When we used to play together with friends
(I was a bass player)...
When i produced my music on my pc with Scream-Tracker... (and them Impulse-Tracker)...
When one day iv just sat at home...,
and friend come to me and bring me, surprisinglly, LSD...
And we went out of my home... traveling at my city.... laughing alot...

There was good times there... Today's... ?Im pretty oldy for those kind of things...
But... Who knows... maybe... one day... just maybe...

Have a great night ppl...   :)

Minimal Design.

 Ok.... So... I have some good news !!!...

As i really not in the "new cool stuff" club, im more at the "old vintage gear" club....,
todays..., iv merged all in onec... I don't have much space on my desk, but somehow, iv succeed put all this gear togethe on it, and... it looks pretty good i think...

So !!! --- Iv kept this new "toy" KEF LSX II on desk, just to give this thing more time to proove me it worth staying in my sound setup !!..., BUT !!! - the KEF's now just sitting on my Adam Audio T5V monitors, so, it woun't take any other place on table, just ready, for the moment ill back to gaming, and im so craved to back to it soon, and ill give the the chance to be my gaming sound preset !!! - Im pretty sure they'll do the job, as iv already tried it once with some games (look at last post) and it sounds pretty nice!!, i mean, they'v got that cinematic power, what makes them cool for gaming...

But, for music, give me my Adam monitors!!!, that's for sure...
Also!!!, as i want to keep this light minimal setup design, but also really want the warmth of the Allen&Heath ZED60-10fx gave me when he was part of my desk, so, iv ordered the small version of this one, and im talking about the - ZEDi-8 !!!
While im waiting to this mixer to arrive at my home, im using the Rodecaster Duo (another toy for kids) as a digital (baaa) mixer, just to keep enjoy my Adama monitors meanwhile ...

Anyway, as you can see now in the image iv uploaded here, iv already got a plastic plant, put him on the left corner of my desk, and iv also got this electric smell spread, but... well... it looks like he's working, but for some reason, i don't smell anything here... :)(

So... After ill g
et this beautiful little pieace of analog mixer, and i really hope he'll give me that amazing sound the ZED60 gave me, ill be so happy and i pretty sure he'll merge beautiful in the overall setup design... I think i have this natural talent for design...

BTW !!! - if we'r talking about design, well, i made a pretty nice wallpaper for 4k screens, so if u in the mood of rainy wallpaper, u can pick this one!!! - i swear it's for free !!! lol ....

Have a great night...   :)
