I totally agree paddedcell. Online communities are a wonderful thing. I've learned a TON from various forums on various topics. I've even made friends from all around the world on the forums. My travels have led me to stay with online friends in 4 countries so far. A really great way to...
Yes, your song. It's been fun working with. I can't get it out of my head. Thanks for recording/ uploading all the tracks for people to mix.
Update on the recording situation is not much of an update. The guy who's sorta running things went to the hospital 2 days after recording and has...
The headphone amp appeared to be pre industrial revolution. That might have been the problem. I did try to send out different mixes through the Aux outputs. Not sure what was going wrong, but we had 3 - 4 people working on it at the same time. To be honest, I think that was the only problem...
About headphone mixes, we never figures out how to get different ones. Whoever is lucky enough to have one of the 3 phones gets the same mix as the others.
Mind readers all of you.... either that or you've all done this before. :)
Yesterday actually went pretty smooth, now that I've experienced today. Damn man... all the stuff you guys just mentioned. My self appointed task for the day was to keep things running and keep everyone on track. The...
So... score at the end of the day. 9.5 hours. Drums for all 4 songs are laid down and sound good. Rhythm (is that really how that's spelled???) guitar for 2 songs was laid down before I had to leave. I'm not too confident on them finishing the rhythm parts without me in an hour, but maybe...
Lol.... You're right... I should be keeping notes of this experience. Will update fully when I get home to a full size keyboard.
hope you guys are at least getting a chuckle from the adventures.
So.... Get this!!! Showed up today... They made all sorts of changes to the computer and it totally doesn't work anymore. Press record in the daw..... Nothing. No moving bar, no level meters lighting up. LOL.
I guess the hardest part is going to be deciding when to leave. Not what I had...
Cheers Dave.
To be honest I'm hoping I contract a bad cold today and can't make it for the weekend. We'll see if I get 'lucky'. :)
And I found out yesterday the laptop they use doesn't have USB 3.0. Not sure what year it's from. :/
Enjoy your weekend guys!
That's a knee slapper.
Thanks for that. I did not know that and had wondered why I didn't hear it on the headphones.
Awesome. Good ideas for me.
Again... I really want to thank you guys for the tips and support. I'll be thinking of you all this weekend.
I am begging the guys to record this weekend and let me mix over the next week. Their idea is start to finish everything done Saturday and Sunday. I don't get it, and I'm trying to change that. Not really sure what the rush is.
Luckily I bought studio one on Cinco de Mayo for $5. Someone on...
Thanks for the tip on communication. One thing I do remember from recording our album was that the engineer was really bossy. Not in a bad way, just told us what to do all the time. I will remember to be open about everything and work with the guys.
The believe the board we have has the...
The guys do not have any of their music recorded. They just put the band together a few months ago. All I know is they play 'rock'. I have not done any live mixing.
About all I've done is record myself in my house on guitar... and record a 4 part band with no vocals during 3 of their...
I've been working with some guys who like to burn money. They've set up a little studio and are going to have me of all people be in charge. :confused:
They booked a band for this weekend to record a 4 song EP. I'm really excited about the whole thing, but also nervous as I know very little...
