Is that a long never-ending series of misfortunes or a long series of misfortunes with a tragic end? I hope, it will be only the first scenario and not the second scenario, because I don't want to see also fatalities some day.

We wanted to make a nice day. We turned on our music-studio. I had made a better cable-connection 2 years ago for a better sound, and I got audio into my PC once, although the audio-CD-burner had to be turned on. We turned it on again, and I started my Goldwave for the recording. I had controlled also on the top left behind my Goldwave, but I saw no audio-signal. Our both Beyerdynamic DT-990 Pro headphones were connected with the headphone jack of the analog studio mixer via a headphones-splitter. I saw no audio on my PC and Frank saw nearly nothing in the peak meters with the LED lamps of the main output. The sound was only very quiet. After 1 hour we lost the left channel totally and it didn't come back, also the 4 internal effects of this mixer didn't work anymore. It seems, that some whole platines got broken, someone said: "Das klingt nach einigen kaputten Baugruppen." ("That sounds like some broken modules."). The repairs of the studio mixer and the music synthesizer are very expensive, also a new analog 24-channel-studio-mixer is very expensive, too expensive, and we don't have enough money anymore after all the strong price rises. It can also happen, that suddenly a synthesizer is smoking completely by and then can never be used anymore, it happened to someone else many years ago.

There are many ways to lose a music studio slowly or quickly:
1. More and more is getting broken and repairs cannot be paid anymore.
2. Suddenly the lease agreement contract is terminated by the landlord or management for the houses, or one of the 2 partners suddenly dies, and the other one is forced to move from the old bigger apartment to a new smaller apartment.
3. Suddenly the musician has to pay thousands of Euros, after something had happened, suddenly and unexpectedly, and the musician is forced to sell all the equipment.
$. Suddenly a fire in the house or apartment can happen, and the musician can lose all the music-instruments and also all master-recordings, if nobody else has the backup-copies. (I can say the same about photos, drawings & paintings).

All good things are three, but mostly also all bad things. The first bad thing was, that our studio mixer got broken totally. The second thing were the very sad news for us all in the internet (since yesterday). What will be the third bad thing, maybe a very terrible telephone call, more terrible than all the previous telephone calls, or a letter with very bad news, worse than the bad news from all the previous letters?

I don't need to travel to other countries, I also don't need a palace, I don't need to be a millionaire, I want to have only a life with less fears...
