Hey all !
This thread is for the ones who are interested into listening some frenchy music
I play drums in a metal/melodic hardcore band, which name is STILLRISE.
I asked a friend of me to manage our sound at a live show on last march, 11th, we brought my pair of Purple Audio Biz pres, and used it on the guitars (one is Peavey 5150 with a custom guitar, the other is Engl Powerball with an ESP guitar ; two were tracked with an SM57), we also used my API 512b on the beta 91 into the bass drum (coupled to a beta 52 into a console pre).
As for the rest we used the console pres (Yamaha DM1000 digital). The bass was tracked through an MD421 (Ibanez through an Hartke amp) + an Avalon U5 DI.
We decided to record it on a stereo track recorder, through the headphones output.
Here are two songs :

A new song (no name for the moment) :

Let me say that the concert room was crap, it sounds quite bad and very agressive (a lot of glass all around !).
As you can hear, it pumps, although we used no compression on the master bus. I guess the recorder we used had an automatic gain setting that we probably forgot to set off.
There was quite no overheads into the speakers, and we used no snare bottom mic, so you can hear that strange drumsound (I think it's great indeed).
The "dual" mode was pushed on the Biz pres, and it sounded very good with it on the guitars.
The hat mic moved during the show so it sounds bad.
The bass is a little too boomy too (too much 100 Hz).
I used a C3 multiband plugin to compress the meds and highs a bit more than the bass band.
The result is a little strange but cool though, we did that to have an idea of what's going wrong. Let me say the guitarists and the bassist weren't very precise, and I did some mistakes on the drums too.
What impresses me is the guitar sound through the Biz, which I think is great
