Mo Bass in da Place.

Last nights session was really cool.

Adrian was back to put bass tracks on the third song for Peter Peters.
A few runs and it was done, fantastic lovely bass in no time. This is the way to record if you dont have a really good tight band. Hire a pro and tell them exactly what you want. In the long run you save money and time AND walk away with a far superior product.
This song is all out Rock n Roll, and it really Slams!
However the Bass put the icing on the cake.

I recorded the Bass with the usual culprits, Ampeg B-18 miked with the Heil PR40. This time I ran the signal direct to the API pre with no compresor. Nice big and punchy bass.

After Adrian was done we did Piano tracks for Peters other 2 songs. I must say these 3 songs are really sounding great and I look forward to the rest. AND Peter says a couple of the other songs are Reggae! I love Reggae.

Peter and I have decided that the next session will be dedicated to editing and comping tracks. He wants to be there when I do this and I think he should. His input at this point is very impotant, I told him to bring a pocket full of patience.

After we finish the editing we will be ready for final guitar and vocals, some more percussion here and there and then mixing.
