Broke and in a Band? Divinity Recording

[Sacha]

Me too, so I decided to start a new blog to document our recording process, and hopefully build a resource and community for Metal musicians at the same time. Check it out and tell me what you think - www.brokebands.com

If you think it's a good ideal then help me out and spread the link around, or if you have stuff to contribute then get in touch. There are a lot of great resources out there already (like this place that has helped me SO much) so I want to try and include a lot of those as well.

Awesome idea

Cool vid, but is that V-drum kit really capable of capturing "where he hits the drum" as you say? I thought there were just like two modes, center and rimshot? Damn fine drummer btw!

Yeah I think there are more then that for the snare anyway, center, edge and rim, but anyway it's Metal so they are all MAXIMUM POUNDAGE hits.

Excellent video dude. I'm digging this idea, can't wait for the next episode!! When will it be airing?

 

[Sacha]

Next one will be in a couple of weeks, talking about the guitar recording / reamping.

Broke my ass, recording shit is EXPENSIVE.

Hope you don't tell me anything I don't already know, cuz I'm about to do a bunch of tracking/reamping this weekend and could quite possibly see myself having to redo some stuff in a few weeks time haha

Great Vblog tho, your shit is always stellar sounding, dood! Learn much, I will! (Yoda voice)

Old v-drum kit had piezo/switch pads that captured dynamics with piezo and switched to rimshot sound when you hit the rim together with drum head.

New kits, like one in the video, have piezo/piezo pads. One piezo on the head and instead of a switch one piezo on the shell too (or maybe rim). It gives much more data for modul to interpret.

Awesome site and concept. Track sounds fucking ace!!

Enditol, do you drum on your own songs or does that drummer play on those songs aswell?

I programmed the ENDITOL stuff, I didn't have the V-Drums at that time. It was a fuckload of work but I got it sounding pretty decent I think.
