So I have just completed a three-month block of MLS with some fair results. I will probably return to it in the future with more intensity and better preparedness.
Without further delay I have finally managed to procure a copy of AM6 and I have to say I am pretty excited to start. My understanding is that it is recommended to wait 3 weeks after finishing one sub before starting another. So for the time being I am taking a break and taking the time to ask any questions that I may have about AM6 and to take note of any preparations I need to make before starting. That is the purpose of this thread.
These are the preparations I have made so far:
-I have decided to print out the instructions for AM6 to keep on me for reference.
-I have all six stages saved on my iPod nano as well as my routines for each stage organized into playlists.
-I have prepared an "AM6 Calendar" to help keep track of the days that I start and finish each stage.
-During the course of MLS I have obtained a dual-jack headphone splitter, for those moments I have to get out of bed for any reason, so that I can continually listen without interruption.
(So the way this works is, I run whatever sub I'm running on one of the masked tracks through the night on speakers. But at one point I need to get up to: check the lock on the front door (I get paranoid about this sometimes); get a glass of water etc. My iPod is connected to my speakers via a dual-headphone splitter. So what I do is I have my headphones nearby on my bed. I plug my headphones into one jack while the other jack is still connected to the speakers, then I put my headphones on, then I disconnect the auxiliary cable connected to the speakers from the other jack. I get up to go do what I need to do, I come back to bed, reconnect the auxiliary cable back to the headphones splitter, remove my headphones, then disconnect my headphones from the splitter. Then I go back to sleep, with my sub still running.
I devised this strategy so that no matter what it is I have to get up for, or how many times I have to get up, and no matter how far away from my room I have to go on such occasions, I will always continually be listening to the sub. No pauses, no interruptions. If anyone has these same scenarios happen to them, I highly recommend getting a headphones splitter. They are only $7 and will make a world of difference. Especially if you are running a 5.5g sub.)
I will ask more questions as I go along. I have scheduled my first day of AM6 on April 1st. As I have said, I want to take some time to ask questions, make preparations and take note of any insight or advice anyone may have for me. I highly welcome it.
