Ecstasy in Overdrive

wallace · 8th March 2005, 04:01 PM

I've been working on this song for the past few days. I did the upright-bass last night with 2 mics about 2 feet from the bass. I'm having a hard time getting it to sit in the mix. The bass is cranked now. If anybody has any tips for mixing/EQing stand-up bass I'd appreciate hearing them. Other instruments include: thumb piano (left channel), slide guitar, alto clarinet, Rhodes, and acoustic and electric guitar. I read on here somewhere about how they recorded the guitars to Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog" with three DI guitars.. I wanted to see how that sounded, and that's kind of how this whole thing started. I wanted to wait till I could record this with live drums, but I took this route. I'd love to hear your feedback...

nice song!
id like to hear more complex effects or effect tricks with the vocal.
im a techno head though
the rest of the music is so weird and cool seems the vocal would be sliding in and metling away at ends
