Work hasn't been too bad today. For the most part I've been clearing out our equipment from one building. Found some cool stuff, which is always fun to see, and some stuff specifically that I hope I can use this weekend.
So yes, this weekend. Me and the band are recording our demo on Sunday. So I've been scrounging around a bit while I work to see if I can find some equipment that might help us. On that note, here's what I have access to. If anyone has any experience or recommendations for what might work best, please reply. I've just been using a 58 in the past, but it hasn't come out too well; my voice is very bassy, so it would be cool to find something that will suit me better. Ok, here's what we got:
Audio-Technica ATM25 <-- this looks to me like it'd be best
Audio-Technica ATM63HE
MXL MXL990
I've also found some decent headphones around here (thanks anyways Jake!) and two pop gaurds. So I think I'm set, providing that B will let me borrow it all, lol. It just sucks because I think I've had a mild form of bronchitis since I got back from Canada (stupid planes with no air circulation) so my voice is still kinda nasely. Hopefully by Sunday that will be fixed, lol. I'm really excited that we're finally doing this. We're getting together early in the morning and doing breakfast, then are going to go until we're done I hope. The good thing is that we're doing this in our drummer's studio, so he has a permanent drum setup set for recording, so that will save us a lot of time I hope. The plan is to record a scratch track, then redo each line with that. So...hopefully...we can get all four songs recorded. Though, that will be kinda sad, because once that's done that'll be it for me. I am thinking that if the songs turn out well that I'll go ahead and pay to get the demo pressed so that we can give them away, sell them, whatever. Just getting 100 done isn't so bad.
EDIT: Also, for any of you that might be so inclined, Head is having an online Bible study tonight on IRC. I'm not sure if he's actually gonna be there or not, but it should be kinda cool in any case. It's at 7pm EDT. Channel #headtochrist on EFnet.
Also...Lance, what's up? :(
