Sandwiched between the two, I'll be out in Beechpark with Yeh Deadlies. It'll be a big 6 piece band bonanza of live recording. Should be fun, although setup's gonna be a pretty big job.
This time there will be session pics.
I've been doing some mix work recently for Dollar Store Toys - excellent indiepop fun.
Hopefully that'll become a release in the next while.
I finally sold off one more principle in exchange for a copy of Melodyne. For emergency purposes only, damnit.
In other new product news, anyone looking to get one good preamp for their home recording needs (or adding a great pre to a collection) should check out the new Daking One Pre :
The Daking is great for Snare, Acoustic and a plenty more besides. It's got enough gain to keep your ribbons very happy, too.
The only thing I'd miss is the output level knob from the Mic Pre/EQ which you can use to get some beautiful saturated sounds with by driving the input hard.
Depending on how the euro price works out (or if you're visiting the US) it looks like being my recommendation for a preamp in the 5/600 price range.
