I agree with dolemite this thread was designed in a sixth grade fashion :D even though I agree with your whole make use of the stuff you have and learn how it use it to the best of it's ability spiele. You could have just stated your opinion, with out the guessing games, my little brother used to play those games all the time when we were kids...I hate guessing games...Foolish foolish foolish...

Now, i'm gonna get out of here before i catch the Kooties or something...

hey guys i hear that.

i wasn't trying to be juvenile, i just thought it would spark some good shit. dolemite - the only reason i took a shot is cause you took a shot. anyway - i wasn't trying to piss anyone off... thats my bad if i did.

and by the way, i think the recording sounds GREAT for a HOME RECORDING. i mean - yeah its a matter of opinion and thats my opinion. i think its very artfully done and suits the music perfectly. if you think the music sucks, then thats a different story.

to each his own... no hard feelings - just a different take on things

P.S. fire I thought the music and the recording were both pretty darn good for a home recording....Good Work!

BTW fire I would like for you to post some of the other equipment you used to get that recording if you could....ie mics, sequencers, plugins, pre amps, soundcards....etc....

Thanks,

Fire You say it's a home recording, so then I asked you what else was used and you send me to a recording companies site? Does not compute........This thread looks more and more like an advertisement for the band and record company as it grows.....smeh....
 
I say this fairly often in many forums, and since I enjoy saying it, I will do so again :)

While more expensive equipment usually provides for quality, more flexibility and overall makes things easier, the engineer/producer combination and their collective experience is really what makes something sound good, or not so good.

I've heard excellent demos done on older portastudios, and horrible recordings done on an SSL/Otari combo.

Hope no one minded the intrusion.

If you look at the pictures on the website, thats definately a home studio.

Nothing wrong with that, but thats where I could classify it based on what I saw.

Maybe the website is a tax write-off. While reminds me, I have to put my tax write-off back on the web :)
 
ok first of all this is not an advertisement. (?)

i have no affiliation with the band or the studio/label except for that they are friends of mine.

why is this an issue?

did you go to the site? the studio is a home studio.

the reason i started this thread was to get one of two reactions:

either that people thought the recording quality was good, and were suprised that it was recorded on behringer/adat, or that people thought the recording sucked and were not suprised it was on behringer/adat.

does that make sense? i know it seems it like a roundabout way of getting to the point, but it seemed like a good idea. seems like i pissed a lot of people off... this was not my intent - nor was i trying to advertise (?)

thanks fredric...

and sorry for dragging community/thelivingroom into this... i thought it would be an interesting topic, not such a controversy! (my fault too)

IMO, this changes the whole point you're trying to make.

I don't think you would have shocked anyone by claiming that you could come up with a halfway decent (almost) recording with Behringer's best mixer in a "home studio" that coincidentally is equipped with Neumanns, charges you to record there, and has its own record label.

Come on now.
 
Thank you dolemite, afterall if it really was a home recording then as soon as I asked you what else you tracked with.......Your response would have been this that this and the other thing..... not go check out this website to find out more about the recording! not that I'm saying the studio is pro, but is it really a "home recording" in the conventional sense of that phrase?...I think not..........you know Dave Grohl of the foo fighters records his albums at his house too, but is it really a home recording in the sense that people here think of "home recording"? the answer to that is no....

i see where you're coming from...

i wasn't trying to mislead anyone. if you read the first post i clearly said that it was recorded in my friend's studio.

look, obviously some people think this thread is doing more harm then good... so once again - SORRY I EVEN BROUGHT IT UP - forget about it. let it die.

make music. have fun. the end.

i agree,

nave, dolemite, whoever else, let it go. i personally dont think he meant to promote the studio. when whoever it was asked what the rig was, he simply gave you a link to the website which lists all the gear that was used, plus photos for your interest.

c'mon guys, give it a rest.

Fair enough, but I do find it a little misleading. When you say Behringer mixer going to digital I think Eurocrack MX1604 to SB Live (or ADAT or M-Audio/Echo/Aardvark card at best). I suppose it was wrong of me to assume that, but that's a pretty average setup for home recording...and then we find out that you're working with Neumanns and a $2k mixer in an at least semi-commericial studio. You see where I'm going with this I'm sure.

Its not a big deal, but IMO, it totally screws the point you were trying to prove. Saying "record with what you have" doesn't mean much after we hear what little you've managed to do with several grand in gear. It's quite contradictory.

I don't think he was promoting the studio at all. It just changes the character of his claim as I (and I think others) perceived it.
 
All other things aside, I love the fact that he has TWO Mesa/Boogie heads and THREE Marshall heads to choose from just in case someone shows up with a Peavey or a POD or the like. :p :p :p :p
 
Clothes do not make the man.
Equipment does not make the mix.

You could have the best and most expensive gear in the world but if one did not know how to use it properly their mixes will always sound like poo. Someone who knows what they're doing will always have a better mix no matter what equipment they are using.
 
who is the idiot that thinks that clothes do not make the man?

You apparently have not read confucius.

As somebody said, I forget who, clothes make the man. Those who dont have clothes are allowed no opinion in the society.

Clothes make the man.

I'm actually much more impressed by the web site design. And I'm not a weg guy. Very artfully done.
