Well most people probably disagree with what I do. I use some pretty extreme compression... I mean I basically narrow the dynamic range of the vocals to like 3 - 6 dB if that but for this type of music I think that's becoming typical. For reverb I do the lexicon room setting only 4% into the...
Hey I'm glad you like the mix. For guitars it was basically a sansamp classic rackmount directly into the firepod (you can get some really really nice analog distortion sounds out of this thing). Bass was DI through the brick. Vocals were a behringer B1 into the brick into the firepod with a...
This is a band I am working for called the fire restart. Tell me what about the engineering needs work (the playing and song writing isn't my business at this point).
Song here
Thanks a lot.
I think I've argued with you before. It is very very rare that someone just gets famous... the only case I can think of is Ashlee Simpson. Almost every artist has to demonstrate to any label that they can play a show well, record and produce an excellent cd, and sell their cds on their own...
Hey Jake... I like the Firepod... but I liked the aardvark Q10 more (never used the fireface). The firepod is a bit less stable and the pres sound thinner to me. That said, I've had little trouble with it and have made some nice sounding stuff with it.
Hey man,
Really different song, I like it. What did you use for those strings at the end? They sound nice (especially the way you can control the release). Again good song.
Well then I suppose we should all head to our local K-Marts... sweat the 8 bucks and buy ourselves some of those nice chinese mini keyboards. Then we don't even need computers!
They seem boring and repetetive and the sounds you use sound really cheap... if you could replace those synth strings with something more real sounding in the first song for example, it'd help. I personally don't like claps either
They sound a bit out of tune... they are washed out sounding too... I'd make them sound where you want them before adding so much reverb or whatever you did... maybe work with some autotune eq and then compression? Compression is the key here though I believe. Hope that helps.
