always a dream. I usually end up listening on cheap computer
  speakers or basic headphones. Had an audiophile friend who
  recorded some of my piano stuff back in the early 1990s. He knew
  how to set up mics and had the equipment to play it back. UGH, I
  sounded amazing on them. Oh well Imagination -* the mind's ear
  has to fill in the gaps. It's the only way* :) ==
  The most important thing to me,- is capturing it in the first
  place and hanging on to it somehow.

  ancient cassette tapes held the only evidence of computer music
  I made back in 1984 at the age of 12. It was in stereo but I
  didn't have a stereo cassette recorder. So, all I have is the
  left channel. But, I caught it, saved it, brought it forward in
  time 32 years so it could live again.
  *
  Am I proud of it? Damn right I am.

  == *I had to program each sound shape through setting up numbers
  manually knowing NOTHING about the significance of what I was
  _really_ doing enough to be amazed by it. Now I'm amazed*tongue

  == I always wanted the c64 - they had extensive sound
  capabilities. Funny thing is, I never got into MIDI. It was
  similar to programming sounds in BASIC and on the "orchestra
  90-CC" on my Tandy Color Computer 2, but Itjust didn't care much
  for it. It had less control over the actual waves in the ways
  that I liked. But now I have Audacity. Love using that. Had fun
  with a Korg-MS-2000 that's been collecting dust for too long as
  well. == So much fun that's possible. I never got into the
  tracker-style way of making music. Tried it, didn't like it.
  Tried Fruityloops as well, didn't care for it. Some of it was
  too tedius for me, although I _could_ learn it if I wanted to
  badly enough. I found I liked either: programming it in text and
  having it play, or doing something live but I didn't doing
  things that required a whole lot of preparation time. I like
  fast feedback*smile emoticon Nowadays I mostly mess around with
  other ppls music just because it's easier*tongue emoticon  == *I
  don't spent a lot of time with things. I get a thought, I cobble
  it together, post it somewhere as fast as I can. But if I had a
  keyboard with lots of tweaky settings, I'd sit there for hours
  just playing and fiddling around and seeing what it can do. ==
  hanks*grin emoticon*Most of what I've done is ridiculous,
  sloppy,
  unedited.*[1]https://soundcloud.com/kenneth-udut/cognitive-1*i'd
  just sit for hours just playing and playing and playing. Never
  could figure out how to cut things up into pieces, figure out
  what's good, what's bad - how to name songs.. how to promote
  them, what they were about.... This is a chunk from a long
  playing session when I had my Korg MS-2000 setup.... sheesh, 11
  yrs ago I guess.* These days I think I mostly make Vines -
  12,000 of them so far about whatever. Some are music, but mostly
  just me expressing whatever I feel like in 6.8 seconds or less.
  Got totally hooked on it 2.5 yrs ago. I guess I just "making"
  stuff, whatever it is === and thanks for indulging me*[2]Saf
  Aslam*- I don't usually talk about stuff I made 'cause it's
  never "good enough" but I like sticking it out there online.
  Feels like I did _something_ productive with it*smile emoticon
  == *Well thank you Saf*smile emoticon*I was supposed to go to
  Julliard music school when I was 11... special lessons and
  stuff... then told my mom, "No, please". I could feel their need
  for perfection would drive me nuts.. and I didn't want the life
  of playing the same music over and over and over and over again
  to increasing levels of perfection.... even at 11, I just saw a
  dark, fixed future that I didn't want. She agreed. Glad too. I
  would've survived, but I think I'd been miserable more often
  than not. == that's one of these scenes I could _really_ get
  into... I try hard to avoid going full on into subcultures
  'cause whenever I do, I don't come up for air for a long time
  sometimes*smile emoticon*But Vaporware is definitely the kind of
  thing I could see myself doing... obsessively...*tongue emoticon
  == whatever the genre, there's disrespect from elsewhere. I
  respect all forms of music, from the obscure all the way to
  heavily promoted pop culture. Music deserves my respect,
  whatever its form, whoever makes it, however it turns out.
  There's rain falling here right now - it's generating patterns -
  gaps, overtones, echos - while I'm listening to
  this:[3]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBvR3iqTKEo*- a random
  vaporware that popped up - and hearing the beeps of my Facebook
  notifications. While I'm deaf in 1 ear and the only good ear
  goes up to 5000 hz, what I hear in my head as it all combines
  together is both an experience I can't describe.... and it also
  is a continual reminder for me to never disrespect someone
  else's taste in music... because there's no way to know how
  sound patterns can move someone. ==
