Hi,
I am lucky enough to have access to a studio with some nice gear, but the thing is I have never used any of them, and I won't get too much time to play around or experiement there. So, I was hoping if some of you guys could give me some pointers on what to do with the following gear and instruments, so I can make the best use of my free studio time
(without any enginners there...)
Preamps
Avalon VT737
DBX 586
i am sure I'm missing some pres here, so, let's just assume we have enough pres to track the drum with max of 8 mics
Mics
U87Ai
TLM-193
AKG Solid Tube
AKG C-414B-TLII
AKG C-418
AKG C-4000B
AKG D-112
Earth Works TC-30K x2
Audio-Technica AT825
Audio-Technica AT835ST
CAD E-300
Shure BETA 87
Shure 55SH
57 (dunno how many)
Superlux PRO-238C
Superlux PRO-268AH
Superlux PRO-248S
Superlux PRA-218B
Superlux PRA-228A
*Note*
The tracking room is super dead (they use it primarily for voiceover) and size wise, it can barely fit a drum kit and a drummer in there.
The song I'm writing is somewhat similiar to "Us and Them" from Dark Side of the Moon, with clean slide and semi distorted guitars, female vocals, bass, and a upright piano.
It's a Tama drum kit and a 100w Marshall amp.
I hope this question is precise enough.
Big thanks in advance
