Welcome! I’m Christopher, an amateur audio tinkerer and lifelong learner. Here I explore REAPER, VCV Rack, VST instruments, and effects through hands-on experiments. I also share the other side of the equation: the music I listen to, learn from, and enjoy. No polished pros here; just honest trial and error as I turn ideas into sound.
You will find deep dives into the tools, techniques, and tracks that power my projects:
- Production & Engineering: Recording setups, creative sampling workflows, mixing strategies, and mastering chains.
- Synthesis: Patches in VCV Rack and tips for modular synth exploration.
- DAW Mastery: Hidden features and custom scripts for REAPER.
- Musical Inspiration: Curated playlists, genre explorations, and notes on the music that fuels my creativity.
This isn’t a product review site; it is a playbook of my personal journey. Every tweak, every misstep, and every breakthrough is shared so we can learn together. Expect messy projects, unexpected detours, and plenty of “aha” moments.
If you are a beginner hungry to experiment, a listener looking for new sounds, or just curious about the messy-brilliant world behind the faders, you are in good company. Let’s extrude the noise, one experiment at a time.
