I have posted a 256kbps mp3 of a new song form the upcoming Vile album "The New Age of Chaos" here:
www.vilestench.com/thenewageofchaos.mp3
All drums are replaced. My first tom replacement job and I used Drumagog 3. Jack Gibson of Exodus plays bass and you can hear his signature sound on the second half of the song. On the first half, we were idiots and he tracked with the neck pickup by accident. We didnt have time to re do it. So bass clank aint there till 1:45. Other songs dont have this problem. Guitars reamped with Mesa rectumfrier. Bass all direct through Calrec 1061 preamps and Amplitube plug in for distortion. Solo tone from a POD guitarport. Kick samples from a Ddrum 4, snare from an old Vile recording mixed with the trigger transducer tone. Used AKG 414s on overheads through a Pendulum tube pre. Vox - Neumann TLM 103, Avalon pre, distressor comp. 96 k throuhout, probably would have been just as good at 48k though. Recorded with Nuendo 2.2. This is my first computer only recording. Always mixed through a console before. Mastered as I mixed down through an analog chain. Mixing in computer is a whole new world but I am now in love with the convenience!
Oh yeah, we werent able to record with a click/grid, so no snapping or anything like that could be done. Drummer started the songs to a click and then fell off after 20 seconds or so and winged it from there. Old school style! Would have been better with click but the guy is really good and so not that needed for tightness. But would have helped me a lot!
Your comments and questions are welcome!
