I got bored,
Been listening to alot of Trolley Snatcher’s stuff recently. Really enjoying The Future.

So I made a ringtone out of a loop and optimised it for the iPhone’s audio output.

Right click, Save as, add to iTunes, Throw it at your iPhone.. Done.

I recently had the displeasure of re-installing my OS (10.6).
However I stumbled across a problem when using the latest universal drivers from MOTU’s website which are currently at version 1.5.0 (At the time of writing).

During boot, the machine would kernel panic.
If the 828 was turned off and I booted up, the machine would boot up fine until the 828 was turned on.. then I’d get a kernel panic again.

The important parts of the kernel panic are:

0xffffff805d71bfa0 : 0xffffff80002c4597
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):

Kernel version:

So anyway, it transpires that the current 1.5 drivers throw up some sort of dependancy conflict.

The solution? Downgrade to the 1.4.9 drivers which no longer appear to be on MOTU’s website.

For convenience sake, I’ve included the driver in a zip file below.

I have an abundance of ‘bits’ of music that I’ve lost interest in, festering on tapes, CD’s and in my HD’s.. so time to bring them to the surface.
You’ll be able to listen and download the results of my rummaging from the new “Exp” section of this website.

Enjoy, squeeblings!

New discography section is up.
Feel free to buy my stuff.

Hello squeeblings!

Well, the website is looking dandy if I do say so myself.

Obviously a lot of work to do. Lots of music and artwork coming your way sirs and sirettes.
Regards,
