Looking for a bit of inspirational help.
I used to spend several hours after finishing work every day, playing and making music. Practicing guitar, working on songs. Over the last few months, my enthusiasm has dried up.
I might sit down to play, but I get frustrated with the tools after a short while. I often find myself trying to get different boxes to work together (OP-Z and OP-1 yesterday), and when they inevitably do something weird, I pack up and stop.
If it’s software, Ableton’s wide-open nature is too open. Drambo’s lack of multitrack recording and playback leads to paralysis.
I know this is a case of poor baby with too many toys to play with, but I have way less stuff than many folks here (I sold most of it off recently).
Any tips or tricks that you use to stay motivated? And to not get distracted by all the stuff?
