Track is now downloadable ��

Cheers guys. It is in F# I believe. Like I said, everything is very raw as the track is for reference.. kind of a scratch track. The acoustic is to be recorded again very soon. Please feel free to add and send me whatever and I will have a go with it!

Yea there are noises etc.. But like I said, the drum loops etc haven't been timed up yet, everything is very raw. These are things I will address once I have more parts for it. For now the drums have literally just been chopped and looped.

Sounds good. Those issues were what I meant by 'details', nothing has been trimmed and set yet. Was just to gauge interest really. The acoustic sample was from a long, long time ago and he was tapping his foot/chair noise etc��. I used it for kind of semimetal reasons i guess...

Hi guys. So, started this track a fair while back with the aim of having many people putting ideas into it. So far it is all real recorded instruments played by me and one or two of my friends. We started with recording some drum loops and went from there really... I guess if you had to slot...

I used two different directional mics next to each other, just so I could see which worked best for the next session. She was probably around 6-7 inches away... I did tell her to get closer a few times, but it was late by this point and I was getting restless.ha

Oh, there are two mics on vocal at the same distance

Thanks for the input... And I was a little drunk by the time they turned up. I get free drinks as I run sound at the venue.... Dangerous! . I agree with what you have said, this is what I have planned for next go: Get her closer to the mics for more presence. Weld my SE reflektion filter up as...

Ha yea, well to add salt.. I am doing it free of charge �� Stoners eh! Anyway by 'lean' I meant under gained. The distortion does only appear to be on the guitar tracks and everything is going through the same desk/interface. Interface in question is renowned for bad caps(emu...

Oh and the di on the guitar is very low in the mix, I mainly used it with a low pass so I could play with lows a little

Hi thanks for reply. Regarding the room.. I have taken an impulse of the same room and it is ran through altiverb to supplement the live mic, so I can manipulate it a little better. The main issue is the distortion and string noise. All the gain staging is 100% ok as it is the same setup I have...

I had a couple come to me to record 2 or 3 tracks.. We arranged for 6pm, but they rolled up at 10:30 ? Anyway we got 1 track down but due to time had no opportunity to check over it closely etc. I was aiming for a live sound as the room(also my local venue where I am resident engineer) has a...

I see your point. I wouldn't say complaining, just a good example of how professionally produced recordings can suck. Its only the last few years I have really progressed with recording myself, so looking back things are a lot more obvious.

Arggh those hihats are damn offensive in cans!! The drums were tracked in under two hours.. For nine songs that cant be a good sign.:facepalm:

Well looking back he didn't really ask how we wanted things to sound before hand and seemed very set on his 'usual' ways. Things like the front kick head.. I am fussy as hell with my kit tuning and that skin was part of the sound it produced, but he pretty much made me take I off and tape the...

This was done a good few years ago now. The band have since split, so I am ok with posting this. I won't name the studio and producer (who is very well known over here in the UK). Anyway, most of the recording, mixing etc was out of my hands and was done on a kind of 'trust me' basis. We...

Ok, thanks for your input. I may have been a little lazy.. Compressing instead of automating the snare in parts. There is not much compression on the individual tracks, I used parallel compression ny style instead on drums. Cheers

On second listen when the vocals come in, I feel the guitar is lacking something.. Maybe some saturation. And maybe they could be louder during that little bridge between chorus and verse? Just my thoughts! Like the track mind.

My first thought is the snare.. Especially at the beginning. It seems to lack presence and body. Try adding some 200hz for fullness and maybe some automation to get it more audible during the louder parts. Tis all for now.. Guitars sound good!

Ok, I see what you are saying. There is no reverb at all on the guitars during the intro.. Only tap delay on the melody part. So maybe there is too much frequency conflict between cymbals and guitars? Problem is i think is to do with the down tuning of the rhythm.. Seems to sound muddy by...
