The melodic syncopation with the harmonies is so tight! Sounds super cool

Same here. So many different bags to audit, very important work.

No worries! The only other additional thing I'd add is...and this is just general good practice. Is to plug in and power everything on with all respective volume levels set to 0 and and carefully increase them when using a setup for the first time to avoid any nasty pops and bangs wrecking speakers

If you convert the 1/4 inch to RCA and use a line input and not phono on the receiver you should be fine. Things only tend to get dangerous when you try running speaker level signal into an amp

Make a set in battery and then import into kontakt

As for the whole house? Maybe yeah eventually

That took me a good year to get to that point, a month is absolutely smashing it

You're not lucky to be here, you're a professional with skills and talent that justify your place. Own that as quickly as possible.

The "dream job" aspect of this career has and will continue to be used to exploit and emotionally manipulate people into being overworked/underpaid or both.

All fun and games until you find that one thing that still needs an ilok

I've found this to be the case so many times. The "why not, what's the worst that could happen?" Capturing decisions paying off and becoming vital to the achieving the desired result

That icon has me sold. Whatever it is I need to click it!

I had this kind of trouble. The fee is what I'd be saving in a couple months of not being with them and with double the speed.

Rep was furious when I didn't want their amazing retention deal that gave me slower speeds for more money. It was such a pain and they abandoned the chat window for an hour
