Got the ones on my myspace, but got a better one here. It's not perfect, and i didn't spend time getting good placement and reverb, but it was just me myself doing it as a demo for the studio, of my old band.Got any samples of your drum recordings panda?
Anem, there was no sarcasm. I know there is a lot of it going around on this site but you won't get any from me. I've been that fool who built a floating floor room within a room on the second floor of a building. What you get in the room below is all the low end stuff, muffled and thumping...sounds worse than a full spectrum of loud music IMO. A rock drummer's snare is going to be hit in excess of 120 Db most of the time, so if you do manage an STC rating of 60 with your mass and "the pink fluffy stuff" that's gonna make it half as loud...or so you would think. In actual fact it'll be half as loud only so far down the spectrum, don't expect to be shaving that off in the lower register because it just doesn't happen with a couple of sheets of plasterboard and some green glue.
The drums are completely unprocessed apart from slight reverb, which i'm not hugely keen on anyway.
The guitarist recorded first to a click, and is slightly out at points, then i recorded months later to the click and guitar. The singer has recorded, but it's not very good and the bassist is yet to record. I think that song will end up being one of those songs that never gets finished.
