Where is Jake?

Now that most of us are used to toggling on and off the Original Sound for Musicians by clicking the top of the Zoom window, they have now CHANGED that so you can't toggle it from there. You now have to go to the up arrow next to the microphone, and click Turn On Original Sound to enable it, and click Noise Removal to turn it off. So they have turned a once click process into a multiple click process adding more aggravation to an already annoying necessity ... Oh... btw ... you STILL have to go into the Audio Settings to make sure the three options under the Original Sound are checked. I wish they'd just figure out a way to allow our replays be in Stereo ... that would be helpful

A lot of you know me but there are so many new folks here now and with the big move of the Membership platform and it's new name I thought I might reintroduce myself... I am an Audio Engineer and Author in my fifties working towards making a second career, running my own company, remastering music & writing. I am learning how to confidently and effectively produce, mix and master multi-track music on the computer using the Studio One Pro 7 DAW. I am in the "Membership Club" at Mastering.com and I hope, soon join their "The Reverse Engineer" audio course. Looking back now, I have spent 38 years, professionally in various realms of customer service. I was a Lead and Trainer at the Astronaut training facilities here in Houston, more precisely, working at the NASA Visitor Center at The Johnson Space Center for The Manned Spaceflight Education Foundation for almost a decade, I taught Public Speaking to Tour Guides and was ultimately second in command in the Management team there. I have recently retired from a 20 year long career as a City Library Clerk in the Circulation Department at the Public Library in Friendswood Texas. I have spent much of my free time recently, redefining who I am, not just professionally but spiritually. Like never before, I feel in touch with the god-fire energy of the soul, connected to all things and my life is truly and powerfully my own. I am emboldenly and daily, grateful for my connection to the Universe ...to God. I am happily divorced, but actively seeking my someone, maybe that soul-mate to share soul romance and the rest of a lifetime together with in the now and the future ahead of us. I have a 21 year old daughter, who is now attending college in Austin, Texas at St. Edwards University. I am currently writing a non-fiction book about manifesting the here and now and the better futures we all deserve. Connecting the dreams of the past to those of today, I studied Audio Engineering in Community College here, in the Houston area back in the 1990's. The goal for me in the day was to work in the Music Business.
