+ 1

For some reason everytime you load a new vst in acid, it brings the previous vst to the front, which if you have 2 or 3 the same means you can be editing a previous one for ages before you realize you've been doing it on the wrong one, hmmmmm

Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

i wear the same green nike hoody - washing for that is a rare thing, ewww i know...
i work standing up about 75-80 % of the time.
i drink stupid amounts of lucozade.
my body clock is broken, i can't tell the last time i went to bed when it was dark when i went to bed after a session making music.
i always eat beef and jalapeno sandwiches when i take a break during sessions.

worst of all imo - i use the internet while producing :|

I hear that. I did one step more the other day by deleting the wrong change/vst/patch and then saving :(

I may start a project at say, 6 pm.

And then I wont realise it's dark outside till around 1am.

Not really a bad habit, but cant be good for your eyes.
