Technology is amazing. What we can do with electronics, computers and much more in today's world is amazing. Without any of it, we wouldn't be able to accomplish a 16th of what we're doing now, as far as musicians, performers and recording artists. I am thankful to be able to have access to all of it and being able to do it all on my own.
But... technology has its price.
Though I had all my precautions, having an external hard drive to save all audio files, and another hard drive dedicated to backing up my MacBook Pro, I could not escape the actual computer's failure. As of tonight, my laptop's hard drive is dead, mort, muerte, caput.
Apparently, after a long year and a half of intense use, especially recording, and that on a daily basis, the hard drive could not take it anymore. Since I have all my backups, I am not too worried. It's just that, I don't have a working computer anymore, which means, no more recording.
Hopefully, I will be able to replace the hard drive soon, and will be able to recover all the softwares I use for recording. The price and time of it all, that's another story.
Technology can fail on you. And oh boy when that happens you realize how powerless you are; simply because you can't do any type of work whatsoever, in regards of the album for us.
So, recording is on halt until further notice... *Tear*
