Recording Studio Horror Stories
A friend just sent me this link of the stupidest things engineers and producers have ever heard during recording sessions. It's 131 pages of stories, and if you're in for a good laugh, read on. I'm only on page six and it's gut busting. The studio is busy as ever heading into the summer. We have sessions scheduled with Tom Provost and the Guardians of the Future, Brad Creel and the Real Deal, Nathan Earle, Brant Colella, and final mixing with the amazing indie band, 1776. Okay, new tunes. Here is a mix of Nr. 47 [mp3] by Paper Brain. And take a listen to Square Peg, Round Hole [mp3] by The Red Octopuses. The studio is in the middle of lots of small but marked improvements - new Mogami leads for the XLR mic boxes, a new flat screen for the music DVDs and foreign movies we play with the sound on mute, a lovely new Earth2o water dispenser, and Pro Tools upgrades. The new studio photos taken by John Carleton look amazing, and we're shopping for a web company to design and launch a new web page. If anyone has any leads on a great web designer, please shoot an e-mail!
