Ieri ho fatto un'altra serata con i Clistere...un po' strana e scombinata in verita', ma utile perche' finalmente ho trovato la pace per quanto riguarda gli ascolti. Ho usato un mio mixer 8 canali per crearmi un mix nelle cuffie isolate JVC che ho comprato. Mi sono trovato benissimo, anche quando i volumi del gruppo sono cresciuti io ho sempre avuto la precisa cognizione di cio' che suonavo e cantavo. Tra l'altro il mio microfono riprendeva molto del suono esterno e quindi era come se avessi un volume indipendente per le tastiere e il resto del gruppo. Sono contento!
So yesterday I played in another gig with Clistere...a bit strange and messy to tell the truth, but very useful because I eventually settled my equipment regarding on stage monitoring. I used a 8 channel mixer to create a mix of what I was playing that went straight into my JVC isolated earphones. It was awesome, even when the decibels from the band raised higher I always had a perfect idea of what I was playing and singing. Furthermore my mike took enough of the external sound so it was like having an indipendent level for keyboards and the rest of the band. I AM happy!

A year has passed...
E' passato un altro anno...anche da quando ho aperto questo blog!! Sono reduce da una quattro giorni a Londra, dove ho visto di nuovo "Wicked" e anche "Avenue Q"...sono stati quattro giorni bellissimi, grazie anche alle mie londinesi preferite che sono state un amore come sempre. Inoltre, all'aeroporto, ho anche trovato un paio di auricolari isolati ad un prezzo decente...il 5 Gennaio, quando suoneremo ancora al Black Cat con i Clistere, sapro' se ho risolto il mio problema con i monitor per le tastiere.
Buon anno a tutti!!!
Another year has passed...it's also a year since I opened this blog!! I've been four days in London, where I saw "Wicked" again and also "Avenue Q"...I had a wonderful time, thanks also to my favourite londoners that have been loving as ever.
Furthermore, at the airport, I also found a pair of isolated earphones at a decent price...on January the 5th, when we play again at the Black Cat with Clistere, I will know if I solved my problem with keyboards' monitoring.
Happy new year everybody!!!

Live gigs..
Ancora un'altra serata con i "Clistere al limone", ieri abbiamo suonato al "Black Cat" a Caserta. Bel palco e bella attrezzatura ma io ho avuto, paradossalmente, un sacco di problemi...nonostante i monitor (una rarita' negli impianti dei locali) non riuscivo a sentire nulla di cio' che suonavo con le tastiere...la chitarra invece era a posto. Devo trovare una soluzione a questo problema anche se cio' comportera' comprarmi un sistema di in-ear monitor! La serata, comunque, e' andata alla grande e ce ne hanno proposta un'altra il 5 Gennaio...Yay!!
Yet another gig with "Clistere al limone", yesterday we played at the "Black Cat" in Caserta. Great stage and PA but, strangely enough, I had a lot of problems...despite the monitors (hard to find in venues' PA) I didn't hear a thing of what I was playing on keyboards...guitar was ok, though. Gotta find a solution even if this means buying an in-ear monitor system! The gig, anyway, was fantastic and we were offered another one on January, 5th...Yay!!

Wicked!!
Lo scorso weekend sono stato a Londra a vedere il musical Wicked...e' stata un'esperienza bellissima, ne e' valsa davvero la pena, non solo per lo spettacolo ma anche perche' ho potuto rivedere le mie londinesi preferite. Ho proprio voglia di ripetere l'avventura...
Last weekend I've been to London to see Wicked the musical...it has been an awesome experience, worth every penny, not only for the show itself but also because I've managed to meet my favourite londoners. I'm looking forward to repeat the adventure...

A new band...
Sono entrato in una band che fa cover di sigle di cartoni animati, i "Clistere al limone" e Mercoledi'ho fatto un'ospitata in un loro show, suonando le tastiere in un paio di pezzi. Ho ancora molto lavoro da fare nel preparare i pezzi e nell'amalgamarmi bene col loro sound ma come esperienza e' stata molto positiva!
I'm in a band playing cartoon songs covers, the "Clistere al limone" and, on Wednesday, I was their guest in a live gig playing keyboards on a couple of songs. I have a lot of work to do, learning the songs and finding the right place in their sound but it was a good first experience!

Long time, no see
E' davvero un po' che non scrivo, sono stato un po' impegnato...e poi in vacanza! Non sono riuscito a fare nulla in questi ultimi tre mesi, volevo registrare "The killing" ed "Il tuo mare" in acustico ma non sono andato piu' in la di alcuni provini per sperimentare la registrazione delle chitarre acustiche con i Samson C01. Spero di riuscire a cominciare le registrazioni vere ma prima devo risolvere un problemino con la 12 corde...
It's really been a long time since I last wrote here, I've been a bit busy...and then on holiday! I didn't manage to do anything in these last three months, I wanted to record "The killing" and "Il tuo mare" in an acoustic arrangement but I didn't go past a few demos to experiment with acoustic guitars recording using the two Samson C01. I hope to start recording for real but not until I solve a little problem with the 12 string guitar...

A new guitar
Ieri, dopo tante ricerche, ho trovato una chitarra acustica 12 corde che mi piacesse...l'ho presa all'istante e cosi' ora mi posso dedicare ad un paio di registrazioni acustiche che ho in cantiere.
Inoltre oggi spero di aggiornare il sito, ho scoperto che i link alla mia pagina su Vitaminic non sono piu' attivi. In attesa dell'aggiornamemto il link giusto e' questo.
Yesterday, after many wanderings, I found an acoustic 12 string guitar that I liked...I bought it at once and so now I can concentrate on some acoustic recordings I've been planning.
Furthermore, today I hope to update the website because I found out that the links to my page on Vitaminic are dead. In the meantime this is the right link.

Mastering...
Le registrazioni per il demo dei Dica33 sono finite e cosi' pure il missaggio. Attualmente mi sto dedicando al mastering dei brani che credo saranno pronti a breve. Anche il brano strumentale (che finalmente ha un titolo "The trouble of love") che ho registrato tempo fa, sara' presto online dopo la fase di mastering.
Dica33's demo CD recording and mixing phases are finally over. Right now I'm getting busy mastering the tracks...hope they will be online soon. The instrumental tune (finally entitled "The trouble of love") I recorded some time ago will also be online soon after mastering.
