x,

I really like the sound on this tune! Could I ask how you tracked the drums and if you used any outboard gear, compression, preamps, etc.. (acoustic drums or electronic)? Could use a few tips here.. thx

Thanks, Roy. I hear you!

Panning with 2 guitarists has always been a funny issue with me. I've always tried to emulate our stage setup and have always likes the sound of the two hard-panned guitars trading off. It's kind of a genre thing too. Sounds a lot more natural through speakers than phones.

Thanks!

Thanks Hydrafonic! For the drums I recorded into a Digimax LT lightpiped to the 001 - I used all 8 inputs on the Digimax (8 mics). No other outboard gear was used. The drums are pretty dry too, just a bit of Waves compression and reverb. The Digimax is the best piece of gear I've purchased next to the 001/002r. Hope this helps,

Got something i just recorded. any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

http://www.northernlightssoftware.co...untitled14.mp3

the beginning part, is coming straight from another song into it, so it has a split second of other music, which is how i wanted it to be

i also just noticed that i need to bring it up a few decibels too...


thanks for listening!

also, i recently recorded a metal band, and they wanted some melancholy piano tracks, but since none of them knew how to play other than their respective instruments , i went ahead and did it. its fairly simple, but be forewarned, it brings to my mind the end of a very sad movie....hehe.

Craiz- Vocals sound really good but they should be a lot louder. Recording sounds fine but the music is weak. There's nothing going on in the background. You should know tho rap isn't what I listen to. So what do I know?? Having said that I do like the way vocals sound.

nightshadecrisis-I like the song. It is nice, but it's hard to tell the quality of the recording since it was converted at 96kbits. Try 160-192 kbits @ 44khz. Only thing I would do different is at 2:07 minutes into the song (where it gets heavy) when everything stops and there's this guitar melody- I would turn it up louder. That's all.

Hey Evan,
I like the guitars on 'untitled', though I would turn the solo parts up some. And I love the mood on 'piano'...very spooky yet serene...very meditative piece. I enjoyed listening...
Again, I appreciate your fine violin on 'Fa's Garden'.
thanks, Roy

roy and db, great sound. db, are those drums done in reason? How about the horns?

no reason at all on that one. the drums are loops, and there's also a loop that i lifted from vinyl a couple of years ago (which explains the scritchy scratchy noise in the back). the horns were recorded live in PA by HammondX from www.globetraxters.com . that place is great. i highly recommend it to anyone that wants to collaborate. can you believe its totally free?!?!?!?!
