In the eighties
I produced hundreds of personal recordings with the very satisfying
analog sound recorder REVOX B77 (38 cm/sec + speed controller)
in combination with the sensitive dynamic hypercardioid microphone
BEYER N88, later I used the Aiwa stereo microphone.In
the nineties I saved many P-ART compositions in MIDI-format
on my versatile Roland KR4500, and I composed via the complete
MIDI-notation software ENCORE for Atari ST & later for Mac.
Unfortunately, Encore isn't upgraded to the latest operating system of
Apple. (Remark: in the new millenium the wonder is arrived: Encore is
edited now again for Mac users!) In the meanwhile, I saved
MIDI-compositions and improvisations on the Roland RA 95 (sound &
style arranger module) controlled by the Gulbransen grandpiano scanner
at my grand or by the pitch-to-midi converter Roland CP-40. (see
instrumental page part 3)In the nineties I entered my DAT-recordings
mostly with musique concrète or sound scapes into the MIDJAY hardware
module.
For digital recording or converting
tapes with acoustic soundscapes and performances, my portable
DAT- recorder (SONY DC7) was practical, and it is very
satisfying with 48 kHZ sample range (higher than CD-quality),
about acoustic input always in combination with the low-noise
sensitive AIWA stereo microphone.
I use sampling soft PEAK for Mac to polish the multisamples and to transfer waves and music fragments first to my synthesizer / sampleplayer EQUINOX 76, today to my EQUINOX 88 PRO.

Domain in Chapter 5 of The P-ART GALLERY.
Till about 20 years ago I recored many experimental
audiovisual tracks with Hitachi handy 8 mm camera. Later, I
bought the ultra-compact camcorder Sony DCR-PC9 on which I convert
analoge 8mm-tapes to the digital platform. iMOVIE (video-editing for
Mac) is still my actual basic software to edit my art-videos, visits to
art and music performances.
In 2006, a MacBook was the end station
of all audiorecording that I realize: DAT, extracting audio parts
from my video compositions, MidJay harddiskrecording, Kawai PR-1
recording system, and converting analogue ((8mm videotapes, DV-tapes,
etc) to digital signal.
Today I use my powerful
iMac with Superdrive to edit and release audiovisual P-ART
tracks and Youtube trailers etc.
To produce DVDs with
audio and audio visual stuff I use Toast Titanium.
It's a pitty that the upgrade of iDVD soft (for Mac) is stopped. iDVD has
/had more features to deliver sofisticated generics etc.
