Finally, we have begun recording. Drums will begin this evening, and should be complete in a few days. For those waiting for this, I apologize about the delay, as we all have other projects, families, etc...... But we will do our absolute best to have it completed by PPX :)

I've been saying that for 2 years now, so if it's not done, I'll just stay home :) haha j/k Glenn.

We'll keep you guys updated regularly as things will be moving quickly from this point out.

Thanks all.....Shane

P.S. And BTW, our new drummer is Moises Zapata from Magistral. They are still a band by all means, and I thank Moises for becoming a member :) He is a freak of nature :)
 
Congrats..Very Very cool..But that raises another question, Will Magistral EVER release a cd???
 
Add me to the list of the patiently waiting... For both Krucible and Magistral CDs. :)

Best of luck with the recording sessions, Shane, and let us know when you start to lay down your bass tracks.
 
That's what I don't get about modern recordings... what ever happened to recording a song together with the whole band? I understand in this case that Lance is in Minnesota and the rest of the band is in Texas, but why can't the rest of the band record and then add in Lance's vocals later?
 
I understand the part of retracking various parts to get a layered effect and such, but I assume the drummer listens to a demo of the song on a set of headphones so he knows what to drum to? I just can't see someone drum (except to practice) a whole song unless there are other instruments?

Usually a scratch guitar track will be recorded and put together with a click track. The drummer will play along to this when recording his parts. The guitar track will be re-done for the final cut of the album (unless it's a really killer scratch guitar!) :D

Yes this is close to how we normally do it, however we usually have the guitarists play along while the drummer is actually cutting the tracks to get the live vibe to recording, it allows for a certain interplay, but the drummer is usually playing along to a click track as well to keep the meter in check, not that Moises needs his meter in check, believe me he's a machine, still it's just the normal way of doing things these days, it helps us "NON DRUMMERS" know it's right in the studio without spending too much time looking at it before we move on to other parts.
