So it seems that an album called D(O)Ub(T) is up on iTunes. It's D(O)UB(T) by any other name, thanks to my good buddies in CD Baby...
...when I was uploading the album, it kept forcing the title to read as "D(O)ub(T)", I asked CD Baby to change this, which they did in fairness to them, but it ended up as D(O)Ub(T) on iTunes. It has to be said that something similar to this happened in relation to Optimism 1 - Experience 0. I presume that this is a "thing" with iTunes. Slightly annoying, but no big deal.
In other news, the Facebook/Twitter stages of the promo campaign are over. Getting some nice reviews from punters, but no action from the meeja. This is not unexpected... Currently, I'm slogging my way through a list of e-mail addresses I data-mined a few years ago. Most likely a lot of these are obsolete by now, but there's only one surefire way to find out...;-).
Finally, and I don't want to jinx this, but there is a distinct prospect of an audio interview on a podcast over the next week. Further details as they emerge.

Accents/Helicopter Shots Of The City - 040115
Sponsored by "Last Played 2015".
Well, that was enjoyable! My roadtrip was postponed until the afternoon, which gave me a few hours to play around with.
ACCENTS
Solved the problem with the trailing decay. It was caused by putting the HALion Synstrings part through a long pre-fader reverb. Tracking the part (and the reverb) to audio in CE5, using the Phonic Firefly/Behringer Xenyx 1202 solved that problem and I can edit the audio to end exactly where I want it.
The track is now ready to mix/master.
HELICOPTER...
Had great fun "dubbing-up" the MIDI drum parts. Much trial and error was required, but I got there in the end. I realised that I need to set up a separate set of FX for each drum part, as sharing FX between parts didn't work out for me. I wonder is there a limit to the number of FX channels I can have in CE5? Guess I'll find out tomorrow...;-)
