I really love my netbook. Its tiny, powerful enough to run Windows XP well and can run various music programs well enough to enjoy whilst travelling. I thought I would put together some pointers for getting Rebirth 383 to run on your Windows XP netbook, being as it may not be be entirely obvious how to get it to install and run (especially if you do not have a cd drive attached at all times).

First off I recommend that you download the wonderful and free Daemon Tools:

This little utility enables you to run an ISO image as if it were a physical CD. A reboot will be required during the installation, so do that when prompted to.

Next up download Rebirth 383 (this will require registration but entirely worth it):
http://www.rebirthmuseum.com/

Once downloaded right click on the Daemon Tools icon in the system tray and mount a drive. Select the ISO file and then look in My Computer where you should have the Rebirth CD loaded. Install Rebirth following the on screen steps (a bunch of Nexts from memory). The last thing you need to remember is that the virtual CD needs to be loaded when attempting to run the application, otherwise you will be asked to insert the disc.

A higher state of consciousness here we come!!!

Klunk Records - Arcade

Here is evidence that with some music you believe in and a credit card anyone can set up their own label. Klunk Records now has a presence in all of the itunes stores. This has been made possible by using tunecore music distribution web service which for a low fee per song uploads your material and makes it live within around 8 weeks.

I have dabbled in the past with cdr production, but was never that satisfied with the results. The process of putting together your own cds for sale whilst possible is very labour intensive and not very environmentally friendly (especially if you do not shift them all). With itunes and tunecore I have been able to do away with this process and reach many more people along the way.

I put together this video to demonstrate Ableton Live 7 running on an Acer Aspire One netbook. As you can see from the video the screen is a little cramped but totally workable.

Here is a short video of the Sorbet Punk Console in action. I have been looking at some additional modifications to the basic instrument. Watch this space…
