lol dont short change yourself, that kit sounds great, you just need to go back to your pimp layout and youd be set lol

 

[Black Paragon]

True....I think Imma go for even less than before...just a Bonham four peice with 4 mini tymps, so i can put another ride there.

 

[Led Opeth]

i have my kit sorta like that lol

(i even took off the double bass! lol)

 

[Black Paragon]

How? Or do u have another pedal?

 

[Rawr]

Haha, well it's not my studio per-se. It's the facility where we're learning, but nonetheless the pics from today's session are really cool. We pulled some massive sounds considering we only had 4 hours (it was pre-production, basically just finding tones we liked).

I'll put them up if my friend forwards them to me.

I'm really curious for your pics and your music!! Studio-time kinda rules I just finished my 4year study at the Utrecht University of Arts, where i studied Audio Design! Just got my diploma, i'm finally done
We also had a studio there, even one with all kinds of really old analog synthesizers.. Once i was patching and making noise, they had to drag me out of there

Recently finished up our band's first album, this week it's going to the cd-press-company-thingamabob so i should have the finished product in about 2 weeks.. Can't wait! Working on it for a year now.. As soon as it's finished i'll put something up!

That looks fucking wonderful! Got any recordings?

I released 2 hardcore vinyls on Bionic Recordings, under the alias "Archetype"... Can't find any previews though
The tracks also appeared on some cd albums..
Next thing i'm going to release (with my band) is a complete album which i wrote for 80%.. The band is called NE1, and it's a bit of a crossover between rock and modern-day dance/beats and stuff! Some straight-on rock songs, a pinch of Prodigy, even a piano-ballad.. Really anxious to see the results!!

That set is nice, why is your right side so empty though?

 

[Led Opeth]

i think that 16inch is upside down:zombie:

 

[MrJack]

LOL I think it is too! I thought it looked funny, then I saw you said that.

Otherwise, my liege of poultry, that is a rather nice set up. I prefer an 18 bass cause it's deeper. nice sabians, the one not in the pic my friend has, it's very nice. Nice color, too. I hate the new clear sonor I also prefer suspended big toms, but thats just personal preference.

 

[Led Opeth]

oh man, yesturday i tried Sabian HHX Legacy (Dave Weckl's new line)..and i was blown away, the ozone ride is beautiful, dark,trashy,a little washy, but still had a very articulate ping to it..weckl is a good guy lol

[MrJack]

well hows that for chance! my band teacher was giving away toms, so know I have a 16" floor tom that clashes horribly with my set. still, a free tom!

 

[Ermz]

Well I'm sorry for the bad camera quality, but here are those pics I promised.



The studio, from the desk:

The kit and our mic set-up:

 

[Rawr]

Moonlapse: Nice!!! That ProTools control really rocks... Worked with it on our school, worked like a charm! The guy in the studio where we recorded used only his mouse (mac-mouse even, the annoying i'll-throw-you-out-of-the-window my-whole-body-is-a-mouse-button-mouse), instant RSI... Had RSI-trouble enough, so one of the first things i bought for my own studio was a control surface!

Got any recordings online? I'm curious! And eeeuhm, what mics are those? Overheads look like Neumanns...
