Another weekend and more progress made on Album #4...We did bass tracks this weekend...Got a great sound, although we ran into some equipment problems mid-way through on Saturday...Either way, we got what we needed to get done...
And low and behold, I knew I had to go to the studio on Sat morning, and what happened Friday? You guessed it...snow...Although it was not that bad, it still pissed me off...It takes me an hour to get to the studio from my house...
Recording is not an easy process...You don't hear what you hear at practice or live...Issues can pop up from time to time because while we think we are playing the same thing (and yes, we are) each person has a different variation to what they are doing and the others are hearing that in the studio for the first time...So there will be discussion and compromise to deal with...Not to mention getting a proper headphone mix to be able to perform...While we all went in prepared, it is still tricky...it's not like we record every week...
So, we got the bass done in two sessions...David finished on Sunday and he kicked ass...The bottom end on this album will split skulls...All we have left is leads and vocals...So far, I think we spent about 24 hours total recording time...Leads and vocals will be done in no time...Then on to the mixing...
But, it is safe to say that Album #4 is practically in the can...
And my beer can collection is getting quite impressive...Ha ha!!
