Re: Let\'s Hear Your Latest
Hey Chris;
Is that your favorite OH setup for situations, rock included? I remember you posted a song you mixed, but didn't track where the ride stood out a tad too much, and you said it was probably due to the OH setup on the tracking session. What do you think they used on that session? thanks. bp |

As a mixing engineer coming from a classical and jazz engineering background, I detest having to work with spaced pair...x/y and ortf are infinitely more versatile in the mixing phase, and produce a sound that is far more naturally balanced and pleasing to the ear imo. |
Re: Mac Mixes!!!!!!!!
Hey Gang,
This is Pete from Half The World. Thanks very much for the kind comments and reviews. I thought I'd answer some questions about the signal chain used. This was recorded and mixed 100% in the box, PTLE Digi 001 except for the front end. All tracks were run into an Apogee Trak 2 24bit 44.1k and straight into Pro Tools. Belive it or not we did NOT have a nice room to record in. This was all done in my living room, which has not been tweaked in any way for acoustics. There is a doorway heading into another room from my living room which is flanked by two little walls on either side. This is where I put the vocal mic and I hang a blanket down the door surface so that as the vocalist is singing their voice doesn't reflect off the door. This acts as a little sort of "vocal booth". The signal chain on the vocals was as follows: Mary belting out her vocals into a Studio Projects C1 then into the Apogee Trak 2 (which is a killer mic pre and A to D) then straight into PTLE. My plugin chain on ALL vocals for any session I do is the secret weapon. 1. Waves Renaissance compressor 2. Waves Renaissance VOX (set to the 25db comp preset, which makes the vocal JUMP out at you) 3. Bus a vocal send over to an aux input with delay and or reverb when appropriate. Bass was recorded DI into the Apogee Trak 2 but next time I'll probably mic it as well. I tend to run DAD valves on guitar and bass tracks and McDSP Analog Channel on other tracks and most importantly on the Master Fader, and I mix into this plug from the get go. Finally, we got the album professionally mastered. Getting ready to start recording the new album now. |

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Hey Roy,
Yea i deleted BrainFreeze1205 because of the lead guitar spots.I did not really like the way i ended each part and maybe a touch to loud in the mix it was starting to bug me. Hopefully i'll redo them... maybe.lol I play bass in this too. Well here it is the way it was before i took it down. http://www.freewebs.com/fracturecomposer/music.htm Bob |

DR.Loop,
Glad to get to hear it. Nice piece...very clean, and the solos are cool to me, because you're playing them in a different key position than one normally would, but it works. Nice to hear it with bass too... Good stuff... -Roy |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Thanks Roy
I am just about to finished working on a live 4 piece jazz band recording for a good friend of mine who is a unbelievable sax player(old school). There are 8 songs all together(jazz standards). Beautiful stuff. I'll ask him if he minds if i post 1 or 2 of them.I'm sure he won't mind.I think a lot of people here would like it. Roy... maybe you will be interested in this. Another friend of mine Charlie(Chuck)Campbell of the Campbell Brothers Sacred Steel Guitars . He is a pedal steel guitar player. www.campbellbrothers.com Bob |
Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
Thanks for the Campbell Bros. link...I listened to 'Don't let the Devil Ride'.....really interesting hearing blues played on a steel guitar...very cool.

Re: First tunes
Finne,
This is a really good song...as you mentioned, it deserves a better singer, but I think you've got a good mix going other than that. I definitely like the guitar sounds...enjoyed listening...Good job, and good luck with finding a singer. -Roy |
Re: Let\'s Hear Your Latest
Chris,
Those are some sweet sounding drums. Looking forward to hearing some vocals, too. Aaron, I like the harmonic structure. Wow, does that guy have a set of lungs! I realize it's a sample, try putting in some breath breaks for some "fake realism". Nice version. |
