Orpheus - Studio diary - Drums (Ermz tracking/ mixing)

[Melb_shredder]

Alright guys! I won't get into the nitty gritty of all the AWESOME gear we got to use, as I'm sure Ermz will pop his head in and sort that all out for you, but here is the video anyway! I think you'll all enjoy it, especially the little "Sneap forum only" bits hehe!

Nice video dude, I once used an Iphone app that recoded videos vertically and hated it's guts, it's so annoying when they get all small in youtube. You have an Iphone right?

Anyways, still pretty cool!

 

[Melb_shredder]

Yep! Iphone it is! With the studio costs a real cam wasn't an option

 

[DanLights]

Haha of course I get it! Iphone 4 is supposed to be awesome quality for videos, that's one of the main reasons I'm dying for one. Hope I'm not going too offtopic here haha

It was kinda hard to understand what some dudes were saying because of volume difference, maybe some slight editing like compressing the audio so the lowers parts come up a bit could help. Or maybe it's just me not understanding Aussie english haha

 

[Melb_shredder]

Yeh! I think I'm just too lazy to edit it to be honest! I hate doing that shit with vids etc
Give me some HTML to edit anyday haha

 

[DanLights]

I'm too lazy to edit ANYTHING so I'm with ya on that

 

[VH1]

Really cool video, man, thanks for sharing with us!

[MarcusGHedwig]

Cool stuff, and your drummer seems pretty solid (so I'll forgive his hairdo ), I like the ride stuff he did

LOL .. the no Pod comment made me go LOLZ!

That kit sounds really good in the room. The isolation on the kick is a nice touch

What did you guys use for OH's? Royers?

 

[Melb_shredder]

First of all, no need to get your knickers twisted about the pod comments etc. It's just some harmless fun, unless you honestly think people who use them are going to really be offended by some just taking the piss (that means joking for the non Aussies). So chill it's a joke! Don't make me pull the "if you don't like it, don't comment" card

Anyways!

Cheers to all of you who enjoyed it, it was definitely a fun and eye opening experience! And don't worry, we've been trying to change his hair style for ages... Sadly no dice!

Ermin knows the video is up I believe, so he will chime in with all the mic and gear fappery! There was some great stuff in that studio!

Cheers guys, I look forward to keepin you up to date on the process

Royers are side address bro. They look like Shure SM81s to me

Overheads were these: http://www.mercenary.com/migem295caco.html

Isolating the kick was pretty troublesome in a room that small, but hopefully adequate enough to do the job.

The skinny jeans and comb-over gives the wrong impression, seriously. Matt loves some brutal shit, and plays brutally tight for his age too. I really feel for him, because he realizes how much musical dick his generation sucks, and he just totally transcended it that week. I is proud.

Before some of the tangential comments turn the thread into a flame war, just sit back, chill and turn on the sense of humor.

 

[Nebulous]

Looking forward to this album. Good work guys.

don't get me wrong, the music is rad for SURE and so is all the gear and the mix
