Just got a new song mixed!
This is one we've been kicking around for a couple years and the guy who wrote the riff finally came up with lyrics this year.
I'm really liking the bass sound on this. It's my go-to combination these days: Gibson LPB-1 through a Genz-Benz Shuttle. I took a line out of the Shuttle direct to the recorder (an "old" Metric Halo Mobile IO feeding into Garage Band).
We recorded several songs like this, guerilla-style in our rented rehearsal space - basically just pointed a couple of SM-57s at the guitar amps and another at the snare, put up a couple of SM-81s for overheads and a Beta 52 for the kick; took the bass direct from my preamp; crammed all that into 8 channels and tracked all the basics live. I tried to keep my room volume down to avoid overwhelming the toms in the overheads... with mixed success, on some songs the bleed is crazy (and not in a good way). Guitar solos and vocals were overdubbed later.
