| | | | Very nice work & pro production. The bass playing was really well done- tasteful, up in the mix and drove the songs. I liked the chimey ric like guitar sound.
The singer is pretty good, fits the music, but not really unique or stands out in my mind, but certainly is good fit for the songs.
Just my opinion. |

As Barkless Dog puts, the production is pro!
Keep us informed of new releases!

"Elizabeth Park" is a very clean cut! Nice production and all the levels were square... the bass sat in the mix really well, loved the walk and the breakdown in the bridge; I will second the post about the chimey Rick sound on the guitar... to me it was VERY reminiscent of another SF area group that I LOVE, Jellyfish... do you guys count them among your influences? Overall, loved it!... Very well done and looking forward to hearing the subsequent tracks when I get a chance... |

The basic set-up is a Digi 003 with Pro Tools. The guy who records us has some pretty nice mics, pres, and outboard gear as well. We've recorded the bass a few different ways, but the current fave is REDDI into a UA 1176 into the interface. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
