Sample rock song

I played everything on this. It was really for experimental purposes with some new gear I got. Please disregard my less than stellar guitar and vocal skills. I wish I had a half stack around too. The guitars were a peavey classic combo; not ideal for the overdrive sound I was looking for.

Hi Brandon.
What is your new gear, and what did you use it on?
Have you been cutting drums in the room with the high ceiling?

Andrew,
hey man, I was messing around with just using a 57 on guitar. The drums were cut mostly with a new API 3124+ in a room with 20' ceilings. I had never recorded there before, so it was an eye opening experience. Definitely what I had been missing with my less than stellar finished basement. It pays to buy that 50' snake and send it up the stairs.

Brandon

The sound is very nice...how do you get that sheen on the guits? Mine always sounds much rougher - as in garage rock vs. power pop/emo/etc.

Thanks guys. The sheen is the amp itself. It sounds exactly like that coming out of the amp. Aside from a little bit of stereo eq and maybe some voxengo tape buss. I can't quite remember. I'll look tomorrow. The whole mix is going through the vintagewarmer, which made a huge difference.

I've seen that room... And, the first thing I thought of was cutting drums!
How do you like the 3124?

The API is great. I sold a couple other pres to get it, but it was definitely worth it. I've been sending everything through and haven't been disappointed.

Part of me feels better too because I know I can no longer blame anything on the preamp.
