As I lay dying - an ocean between us recording...

don't forget that they lost everything, at one point.

wtf? I'm not even close to legit, but even i back up sessions i'm recording on an external hard drive every night...

 

[Rex Rocker]

Anyone's got any info on what guitars they recorded with? LP's with EMG 85's as they used to have in the past?



*edit* nevermind, I kinda found this interview:

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/inte...lay_dying_this_record_was_kind_of_cursed.html

He still doesn't mention if he was using 85's or 81's, tho. I guess he means Nick's white Ibanez LACS ART, but as far as I know, that one has an 81...

Whatever it is, it sounds awesome.

didn't Andy say they used a LP with stock pups for shadows?

Wow. Makes me feel better about tracking rhythm guitars over about 10 days on the last record.

re-reading this thread makes me want to go back up my computers

only problem is, i have 4... and not enough hard drive space to do so

FML

crazy, losing even a few days work would be just awful. I wonder what they were thinking.

then again I know of one major pop artist in particular that doesn't let the engineers make backups once his voice is on the track. He doesn't want more than one copy out there..

 

[beyond dead]

the hd crash would have killed their budget! I wonder if the studio compensated them for lost time?

 

[Soundlurker]

^ I think they recorded their album in one of the members' studio.

That just made my butthole pucker! What an awful feeling.

Yeah, I remember reading that as well.

I knew that around the Shadows tour they were using Les Pauls with EMG 85's in the bridge, tho, so I figured maybe they used those to record An Ocean.

Yep, Tim's, AFAIK.
