Damned if I do
I wish I could say it was done analog, but my 38 has been on the fritz for a couple of years and the computer has muscled its way in as the dominant machine. The songs you heard are demos taken from rehearsal. I record all our rehearsals multitrack despite the pain in the ass it is. We were all in the same room (size approx. 12 x 15). Drums - Beyer M201 on snare, one 57 per tom (3 total), Beyer TG-X50 on kick, a pair of MXL 603's for overheads. Drum mics going through M-Audio Octane->Layla 24/96, overheads through DMP3->Rane ME15B (for light eq and signal attenuation)->Layla 24/96. The bass is a custom G&L going through an Eden head and into an SVT cab. This was miced with a Sennheiser e609s, which works well since my bass player uses lots of distortion. My guitarist uses a Pod and an Axon guitar synth, so I used the direct outs from each of those. Main vox through SM58. The non-drum instruments and vox were routed via my Mackie 1604 to the second Layla 24/96. A total of 13 soundcard inputs were used. Since I'm also running the vox live in the room, I had those eq'd to prevent feedback and the actual recording sounds like poo. So we overdubbed the vox. You can still hear the original vox in the background a little. Mixed in the box.Herm said:
Hmmmm, did I miss anything?

My problem is this - at work I'm on a fast network but have really shitty speakers. At home I have great monitors but am on a dial-up. I think I need to dl from work, burn to CD and listen at the studio.
