well i’ve got to go now and procure all of my items for breakfast that have become a bit of chore this moment. they are just not cooperating and the assembly of it has proven difficult.
morning. today i am excited. i have a couple of friends coming to visit us. hogan is upstairs already pounding out violin parts. he got an early start. his electric violin parts sound amazing. we’ve been troubled with each recording by its tone. not that it was bad just that it sounded like every other electric violin that we have encountered on recordings. not this time. i have the fabulous news that we have it figured out. typically when mic’ing an amp you stick the mic fairly close to the cabinet. unless you’re trying to go for something geeked out and grab the reverb in a room or hallway or bathroom shower, then you put the mic in a place that will capture what you’re hearing. so we have always stuck the mic on the cabinet and eq’d until we were somewhat ok with things but one day on the road it occurs to hogan that when he plays live he is standing about four feet from the amp and since he is standing up his ears are about three feet above it. at this location all of the issues we have been troubled by in the studio are not present. so the mic was placed in a similar location and wouldn’t you know it…it sounds fabulous. how slow are we? i can’t wait for you to hear it. it sounds so rich. it emotes and pulls at your insides now. it is truly glorious.
