hi all,

i recorded a 5 track for a band a while back and i usually post up for advice and tips but it went quite smoothly this time,,,,



now that it's done and dusted though, it'd be nice to get feedback for future projects.


i know myspace isn't ideal but the tracks are at
http://www.myspace.com/farriersmusic

and the tracks are shore,last long evening,coastlines,am i ever, this great divide.





for info, recording is done on PT8le system using

sm81s guitars
sm81s overheads
d112 kick
sm57 snare
samson clip on tom
DI bass
oktava mk219s viola
MD421N female vox
SM7B male vox

all through focusrite octopre




look forward to any comments guys,,,,they're always a learning curve....
 
Thanks for posting. Even though myspace generally sounds like shite, I really enjoy your music. I would really love to see your band live. I think it would be an enjoyable night. The only thing distracting to me on some of the recordings is the drums. Seems like they are distant and not very present. I'm not an expert at mixing drums, but maybe too much room mic and not enough of the close mics on drums? Still, I'm a fan.
 
I agree, the drums do sound a bit roomy. Otherwise it sounds good, even for myspace.
 
cheers for the feedback guys,,,,

it's not my band,,,,they're people i met through college,,,but if you're ever in NI they're always gigging :P


have to agree with you both about the drum sound.

my instinct was to mix much dryer,,,,but the band were focused on having a roomier more live kind of sound..



good call, and thanks for the comments!
 
myspace isn't playing for me now... just like 1/2 the time I try.. Gad I hate myspace.. WTF happened to them, it used to rule!
