Anyone Make Tunes On Trains?

[ehcsztein]

I have a 30 minute train trip back and forth to school each day and have taken my sampler a few times to work on beats and simple sequences. I found that i would wind up listening to stuff more than editing.

However on a non-train tip... I fully recomend working on stuff while camping for a weekend every now and then. Totally different headspace when sitting in the dessert/woods and just knocking around ideas.

the lack of audio programs on Android is what's keeping me from taking the plunge and getting a smartphone...someone at Google really needs to fix up that code...jerks.

You realise Google doesn`t make the apps, people do, right?

You realize Google made Android, and the coding of Android introduces such high audio latency that nobody's bothering to make audio apps for it, right?

transit is how i got into reading about post prod and shit

its also why i got myself a laptop

lately ive been warping tracks in ableton while sitting on the bus...

gotta be careful with the overall noise level ur ears are exposed to when u listen to music in a bus/train tho...

camping in the dessert? haha
a campfire production does sound nice though

I think if I produced on the train I'd miss my stop

i study in different town so every second sunday and thursday or friday i ride the train for about three and half hours. i have quite a compact bussiness laptop with shity soundcard and everything, but pretty decent batery capacity. train is perfect for making tunes, because there is no internet connection there and i focus much better. only problem is that i don't really pay attention when editing so i sometimes have to run out of train juggling with backpack, laptop, soundcard, nanokey and headphones. i am scared shitless when i have tu jump out of train with armful of wires and quite expensive gear.
