Downloaded the free trial of Izotope Ozone 9 and I'm really liking it, esp the vintage compressor. Remixed/remastered the recording I posted a week ago and think it sounds a lot better; also mastered two other pieces for the planned album.

The band got our first quarantine song/video done, apparently we're going to keep doing them:

Very happy with how it turned out, although it's not fun at all to record drums in a small room, by myself, with a headphone cord that's way too short.

And then we did another one in a day, because someone wanted to make a Mother's Day thing, this time with a muppet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZRUHWwjzC4

Those are great! Did you guys all record to a backing track or click or something? How did it work?
― DJI, Monday, 11 May 2020 19:41 (four years ago) link
I started off recording bass drum to a click (just keeping the form in my head), then snare recorded to me, and then the horns one at a time. So one person was creating mixes as we added parts, and sending it to the next person. Maybe not the most efficient method, but it's working for us.
Of course most civilians think we're recording over Zoom or something, but I just don't see how that would be possible in terms of hearing each other, latency, etc.

Also that way we can put little things in for the next person to play off of, to make it feel more live.

That’s so cool! I’m impressed your band has been together so long. That’s really something. I made a new recording by myself w a field recording of humming insects that I recorded last summer when I was super sick. It’s melodica, maraca, recorder, drum set, and bugs. https://m.soundcloud.com/marshmallowy/may-2020
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Monday, 11 May 2020 20:17 (four years ago) link
Nice bugs! Thanks.
I will say, the secret to the band's longevity is that it's not a democracy.

That was awesome, LL. Props!

thank you! it's not professional or perfect but i feel like it does what i want it to do. it feels like sounds i made, and that's satisfying :)

From over a month ago, "Planet Caravan". Didn't record enough guitar riff so i had to end a few lines early

that is GREAT

says you arranged it? if so, I really like the arrangement, the chord choices, the part writing. great intonation too throughout.
how is that ACapella program? i've been looking for something like that.
― I am a free. I am not man. A number. (Neanderthal), Sunday, 24 May 2020 12:08 (four years ago) link
Thanks! I had the option of singing to a recording of the accompaniment from the Burleigh arrangement but my Mac wouldn’t render the two audio tracks together when I tried to put them together in iMovie, so this route ended up being easier. The Acapella app is pricy but worth it, especially since I did this for my church gig and can write it off. My director suggested I start a YouTube channel called I Am My Own Barbershop for maximum Covid-19 SEO, which I think is hilarious
― (so serious) (DJP), Sunday, 24 May 2020 12:22 (four years ago) link
that's a cool idea! would watch. post it here if you wind up doing that!
lol sometimes going a capella is the easier route when technology fails.
i'm gonna check this app out as I used to do these types of recordings and keep finding programs that can't sync properly :/.

You can do 30 sec videos in the free version to try it out

I did these about six years ago, when I still had a dope USB mic. I'm not much of a producer and levels confound me at times, but here they go:
Neanderthal - In the Still of the Nite (a capella)
Neanderthal - End of the Road (a capella)
― I am a free. I am not man. A number. (Neanderthal), Sunday, 24 May 2020 13:52 (four years ago) link
Nice job! Those harmonies on End of the Road are TIGHT

thanks! i always wanted to do this arrangement with a live quintet. i need to find where I put the sheet music.

didn't wanna share this one cos the mix is fucked up and i couldnt find an app that would do what i wanted. just...don't play on high volume, if you play at all (also Soundgarden, "Beyond the Wheel").

been putting the more recent austinato stuff on my youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/austintayeshus1
most recent thing was this quickie ep deal which is most likely going to be that last new recordings for the foreseeable future as all my gear is now in storage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4Z9xD0Jjns
it's also all on my bandcamp(s) for free if you want to download* along with a shitton of older stuff i haven't put on youtube yet. links in the video descriptions.
*but why you would want to potentially do that is a complete mystery to me. thanks everyone for sharing your musics. i'm sorry i don't have specific thoughts, but i feel like everyone who posts music in here should be a lot more known by a lot more people (except me of course; my music is the opposite of remarkable and unique and made by a talented person).
