musical chaos: Dead Poetic - Taste The Red Hands
I just got home about 10 minutes ago and im tired as hell. It's 9:45 and my first long day of guitar tracking is done. I see at least another night for me to finish and for Kyle to start.
Kyle was with me and we grabbed some Arbys on Erie Blvd. Got to Jocko's around ten of 4pm. We sat in his "control room"... since thats what it is... and ate and talked and hung out. Alec showed up while we were eating. After eating we got ready, i re-strung my guitar and kyle tuned up etc. Josh showed up, then Pete.
What came next was the long gruiling process of getting the perfect guitar tone. This falls nothing short of:
What amp to use
What cab sounds best
What guitar sounds best
What preamp sounds best
Sounds simple but this took several upon several hours. By the time i started recording Everybody decided to leave and we knew we werent gonna get ot kyle tonight. Perfectionism is key, because by the time nine o'clok came around I had done 3 songs out of twelve. This is gonna take a lot longer than I first thought.
All in all it was fun but recording is by no means an easy art. This is what I'm going to college for, this is what my future is gonna be, so i better get used to the fact that it isn't easy.
3 songs done, and by done I mean I layed down the basic rythem track and a ton more needs to be done.
Childhood Envy
World OP
Don't Drink Drano
Tommorow is gonna be even harder, but I got caffiene to keep me sane and Poker to keep me happy. Yes, i capitalized Poker because it deserves nothing short of being capitalized.
that's it for now, more tommorow, gotta get some sleep.
