rendering

so at 3 pm i start rendering the improvisation,

this is yesterday and the improvisation was recorded the day before - sunday - with M on the bass...

uncle T is coming round later and i quickly realise that the render is going to take too long...

T due @ 7 and the render claiming to take 6 hours,

i can't run cubase whilst i'm rendering from vegas...

so i decide to set it up and render it on my old computer, a little slower but it can just be chugging along in the background while me & T work...

so i transfer over the 10 Gb reqcuired, then remember that i need to install these 2 things, then remember that the video from my new camera needs a different codec, than remember that the logo isn't in the folder for this week so i have to find it, then i have to get a new version of divx...

anyway, what with all this toing and froing i don't start rendering until 5pm...

i pop out to see floopy & T and then come back for uncle T, we don't use cubase in the end, just talking primarily about our recording on thursday night...

dinah gets home around 9, T goes by 11ish...

dinah is in bed by midnight, i stay up for another couple of hours...

the render over on the other computer is saying it needs 9 & a half hours, which means it's going to finish @ 2:30 am... almost 12 hours since i started it on the other computer...

i go to bed @ 2 having done some work on speak&spell which i'll tell you all about later...

the improvisation is now uploading x
