OT-...What are you working on right now?

[Roy Howell]

Pro or non-pro projects or songs, doesn't matter...I'm just curious and interested in what you guys are into presently. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Me, I'm working of a few projects, but what I'm into the most is a long version of a song called 'Moonbeam Seduction', trying to keep it interesting for 7-8 minutes.
How about you guys?


thanks, Roy

Working on a couple gospel projects. One of the singers Im working with is absolutley amazing. We had her lay down a scratch vocal and it was so good we just kept it...is almost flawless everytime. Problem is shes so dynamic I have to compress the snot of it just to avoid clipping to tape [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I'm currently revamping a bunch of unreleased older songs of mine, and actually really surprised at how well they stand the test of time.

On the pro side, it's business as usual, can't complain here, lots of commercials (last week was Ford, Dove Shampoo, La Vache Qui Rit - "the smiling cow", it's a french cheese - I haven't checked on the coming week's planning yet). We had a slower time after last summer, but since december it's chaos again. Hard work, but no complaints.

And we have a nice collaboration going on with Soundsurfer and Roy, I think it's going to be a really good track.

Just finished some rough mixes of my groups songs last week... they are rough but a good learning tool all the way around. I spent a lot of time cleaning up my audio drive, deleting and backing up and screwing up some sessions in the process. At lot can accumulate on a 120 gig drive...

Today I hooked up a Presonus LT and started to AB the digi and presonus converters with my NTK mics. I noticed a big difference in the mics. One has more lows and mids, the other is harsh and brite. Very different sounding. I was told it may be the tubes. Tried switching everything around and still had the same differences. GC is checking into a matched pair.... didn't get to do an AB on the converters yet. that is how I spent my morning....

I am busy working on an untitled song.

The song is heavily dependent on its longing twangy acoustic guitar and sound fx drums. I guess I could say I am having the hardest time with the vox. I am trying to get a dark hollow sound on them. Much like the latest Clan Of Xymox CD, if anyone has heard that. Still working at it, but I think the key element is going to be multiple varrying levels of reverb on backing up vox, with a lower un-reverbed or clean, shall I say, main vocal line.

I also want to make sure I dont run into Vocal NOIZE... with TOO Much reverb..
