Cardiac Arrest Studio Report...Day 1

Ok folks, the first day of recording our second full length, Cadaverous Presence, is in the books...Not a bad first day...I think the guys learned a lot from the recording process of Morgue Mutilations back in early 06...and my first recording experience with Cardiac was in late 06, when we did the 3 pre-production tracks...We are very focused on the task at hand...we will be basically using the same process we did the pre-production tracks with...it was comfortable and fairy simple...

So we got to Polymorph around 4pm...I was late as usual...Jim had brought all his stuff over the night before and was all set up, miked up, and had his drum sound dialed in...








Adam and I got our stuff hooked up and got situated...got all the proper levels through the headphones and did a few tests...When all sounded right, we were ready to go...Here are the drum tracks we wanted to get completed today...




Before we started though, we had to get a picture of Jim being a whore... :)





Most of the tracking went fairly smooth...there were a few do overs, but I think it was just a matter of getting comfortable recording again...It has been awhile...

A rather humorous moment happened toward the middle of recording...Jim was having a bit of a hard time finding his high hats in "In His Name They Spill Blood"...After several attempts and me making fun of him, this picture was the result...




We finished up around 8pm...We may redo the drum tracks for "Make Them Die Slowly" as a bit of a technical problem popped up during that track...Since it was the end of the day, we'll try to diagnose the issue tomorrow...We will be recording the drum tracks for the remaining songs as well...So look for another report tomorrow...
