Mike (Mac) McCormick   Mike and Joan, & Shelby Believe it or not, after leaving the Noblemen in 1970 I continued to play live music professionally for another 15 years. And therefore, music became my life-long career. But, while on the road in the late 70's, I developed an interest in computers which was to change that career substantially. In 1980 I landed in the Twin Cities playing in a number of local bands. And in 1985 my career became music technology full-time. I worked in a very special music store where I got into using computers as a tool to create music. In 1989 I became a factory representative for the now defunct Opcode Systems, a manufacturer of music software and hardware. After nine years there, a friend and I started a company called Wave Digital Systems (now WaveDistro) that built and configured computers for musicians. In 2000 I started working for Korg USA which was the U.S. distributor for Korg, Marshall, and Vox. I still reside in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul with Joan, my wife of 38 years. Joan's career has been varied, including flight attendant for Northwest Airlines and assistant to the principal at the local high school. She is also now retired. I am now mostly retired but enjoy composing music with most of my free-time. My latest compositions are here. I still have a real passion for computers especially as used in the creation of music. Music technology has come so far in the last couple of decades that it is amazing how computers are such and intregal part of composing, recording, mixing, and mastering music. I hope you enjoy a listen to my tunes! Back to Notorious Noblemen Home Page
