Insane Genious!
OK, time to do something that I should have done a long time ago. Ask you guys what stuff you have used to record the songs on the Homerecording.comp volume II CD. Of course, anybody that wants to can give their list (I will) but there are some recordings which I wanna know more about:
Slackmaster2k: Crawling With the Ants.
Not only a great song with a cool arrangement and good lyrics, it sounds great too. Completely professional. Equipment list. NOW! And put together a CD plis.
Chibi Nappa: Speak
Except that the vocals is mixed too low this is another sonically near perfect recording. Great song too. I need details!!!
ChuckU: Morning Light
Sorry man, I totally hate this kind of bland gays ass sob-country. It makes me sick.
The recording is awesome though. Equipment list, sil vous plait!
sluice: Chrysalis:
Perfect recording except for the saxophones. I hate saxophones, admittely, but these sound...plastic. I wanna know everything about recording acoustic guitars.
And an equipment list, of course.
Scottboyher: Can't live without you
A bit heavy on the delay, but otherwise good. I need an equipment list here too.
Jamal Bucket: Last Hurrah
Self-deprecating songs about how nerdy you are are so 90's. But I like it.
Great recording, equipment list?
James Argo: The poetry
Excellent stuff. Equipment list again, puhleeze?
Emeric: Sunday Part 16 - Fading
Have you ever pondered writing a rock opera? Or an equipment list?
Voxvendor: In My Head
Possibly the vocals have something lacking from full-pro quality. Otherwise it's excellent. I especially like the goth-intro. List your shtuff if ya please!
And for thise interested in what mixer NOT to use here's my equipment list:
I used a Roland MC-50 sequencer and synced to the tape recorder to sequence the electronic stuff.
The synthesizer is a Clavia Nord Modular.
The percussion is a Yamaha A3000 sampler playing samplings of me slapping my knees and banging on my Behringer patchbays.
The electric is and 80's Japanese Fender strat. I don't remember how I recorded it, probably I used the Line Art preamp. There is a lot of some cheap ass analog delay that was forgotten by somebody in a rehersal space in the early 90's on it too.
The acoustic guitar is a 12-string guitar I borrowed from my sister. I think it's a washburn, the $250 type. Both the guitar and my singing friend are captured with an Oktava MK-319. The vocals with an ART Tube MP, and the guitars with a Line Audio MP-1 mic preamp. The vocals were compressed during tracking with a dbx 163x compressor and I use a bit of that analog delay.
This is all tracked to a Fostex A-8LR 1/4" reel to reel 8-track, and the mixed with a Boss BX-16 mixer that makes Behringer look professional, with an Alesis Microverb as reverb.
It is all monitored through Tannoy Active Reveals, and mixed to a Soundblaster card of some sort.
I don't know why it all sound like I have wet socks over the speakers, but I blame the mixer.
I think that's it.
