Sorry for the mess :)

I hope everybody is keeping warm! My house is freezing...!

Do we have any musicians/music tech people here? :) What do you use?

I have finally got a Line 6 HX Stomp to replace my 2008 Line 6 POD X3 Pro that I have been using at live shows for 15 years. I had some fun programming a new guitar sound that I'll be using on tour.

I also got a new vocal processor - Boss VE-500. I'll be using this to add vocal harmonies to the live set and also specific FX for certain songs (megaphone/radio effect in Tsunami, for example), and much more.

I just spent the whole day (and night) working on the live set. Lots of MIDI programming. Making use of automation, so program changes on these vocal and guitar devices happen automatically without me stepping on the pedals.

Next, I'll be working on the video backdrops and animations for the shows in Wolverhampton, Leeds, Glasgow, and London to take those shows to the next level.

Eventually, I'd love my laptop to program lighting, too, once I learn how to :)

P.S. We started writing new songs too!
