We’re having a good mixing session. I think we’re about to use an oscillator to try and figure out how to use this rack for out-the-box compression, but now we have to beware of the delay!!!!!
Yesterday, I played a drop-in assignment we had on week 6 and it sounded great on my monitors at home. Not so much in these powered Mackie speakers. Lesson learned: mix heavy low frequencies at least around 80db. I almost blew out the speakers! It was Terrible! (Charles Barkley voice)
This, my friends, is a rack. It has a cd burner, some mic and line inputs with loops. How can we use this? We have an idea, but we haven’t actually used it yet. I’m gonna! #Compression
We are micing a drumset, a bass, and 2 guitars today. It is pretty awesome, and we are finding a million ways to make these live instruments sound different. We all have different tastes, but there are definitely people whose opinions matter a little more because they know more. That’s why we learn!
Working in the control room of the studio has been super informal. I feel like I miss some things because I don’t always have a clear line of sight to the boards. We’re moving though!
