Suck 'em and see!
Yeah so, never recorded or mixed this style before I do more indie guitar band sound.
This is one guy that came to me, he's lead singer/guitarist with JMC Band Who are in my area and I've seen many times live.
He came into the studio and layed down a drum track to nothing but music in his head, no click...just sat there and played and this song is almost 7 minutes. He then tracked acoustic guitars, bass, rythm guitars, lead guitars, lead vocals, backing vocals, guitar solos.....he done everything!
He also had a lot of input at the mix stage and as I'd never recorded or mixed this style before I let him have a lot of input. I have tried to hold on to a lot of my own style of mixing while letting him go a bit overboard to my tastes with the depth of the song and the use of reverbs. I just have no idea how this should sound although he is extremely happy with it and I'm quite pleased with it too.
Equipment:
Drums are a Roland TD3 brain with Koby mesh heads triggering EZdrummer DFH
Bass is a cheap knockoff DI'd and put through a pod.
Guitars: Gidson les paul standard through various pod patches
Vocals: Studio Projects B1 through Yamaha N12 Pre's
Recording and Mixdown on Yamaha N12 and Cubase Studio 4
DOES the mix sound restricted for this genre? Just any points you can pick out that aren't working in my mix would be great. Pick it to pecies.
