Bass session tonight for one of my songs that I have not named yet.
Alfred Kenny is coming with his lovely old Fender bass guitar. Alfred is a great bass player and a really nice guy. I dropped off a copy of the music to his shop yesterday so he could have a listen.
I will be miking the 66 Ampeg B-18n for this session. I will try the Heil PR40 mic > Summit tube limiter > API 3124. I always get really nice thick and punchy results with this setup. However if hes not in a rush I may experiment with a couple other mics and my new Lucas compressor. Always fun to explore.
Last night I did some work on Peter Peters rhythn guitar tracks. After an hour and 1/2 or so I had a nice track comped. Tonight before Alfred arrives I will smooth out the rough edges and make it sound awesome. I still cant get over how nice the guitar sounded, even for a Les Paul!
Saturday afternoon should be very interesting. Terry Manning of Compass Point Studios mentioned some time ago that his son Lucas plays drums . Lucas is working at lowes for the summer with me in the warehouse. My un-named song needs a better drum track. Lucas agreed to come by on Saturday afternoon and give it a try. So, drum session Saturday afternoon.
There will be pictures!
Fun Fun Fun.......................
