Recording Journal: Batch 1, Day Something

I didn't post it, but I did actually finish my acoustic guitar recordings on schedule - recorded the last track on Sunday morning. Pretty good. Now I just have to do a few things, get my guitars back from the guitar guy, and then get stuck into recording electric guitars.

And then wait forever until someone out there can help me get my vocal recording gear out of storage...

So a moderate amount of success has been had. Now I get to spend tomorrow watching WrestleMania. Because apparently I hate life...

Recording Journal: Batch 1, Day 10

Wellity, wellity, wellity...

And there I was saying this wasn't going well - in your face, historical Logman!

Decided to forgo much sleep in the weekend and take advantage of a quiet area by recording a few more songs. It was a wise decision; smashed out the acoustic tracks for 5 songs. Sure, I had to spend a lot of time last night editing them so they are actually in time and sound good and not total garbage being played by a deaf and blind banana with no arms (really - have you ever seen a banana with arms?) and the groove of a rotting zombie. But that's why Optimus Prime gave us computers with recording software!

But yeah, there's something fun about recording at 5am before enjoying a bowl of Count Chocula. Especially when you actually nail a song in one take! So I am totally back on track now. Just need to restring my acoustic and take care of the last 7 songs - my aim is to have them finished by Sunday night, so that I can justifiably take Monday off completely to watch the Formula 1. Priorities. Electric guitars won't be ready for another couple of weeks anyways - just in time for Easter weekend  - so I'm actually probably ahead of schedule. Gosh I'm awesome.

I totally forgot there was a nice 4 day weekend coming up. I guess that means I have to watch WrestleMania...

Crap!
