JTUK Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Difficult to work from the audio feed..but that is all we have. The drums don't work for me... I don't get the tune on them and they just don't carry in the mix. Not sure the P.A was man enough so that might not help the drums issue..?? I like the idea of the song mash-up in Vid 3. Vox are not my thing so no comment there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gust0o Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I prefer the original track you've posted. Some nice work going on on the groove, although I'll second JT in wondering what the drums were trying to achieve at times. All good stuff - and just your second gig?

JTUK Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Well... Video cams or phones are a complete lottery re the sound. We have had good and bad results with these basic point and shoots but we never expected to be able to use them. It depends on quite a few hit and miss things, IME. Best audio we had was a Zoom H2..?? IIRC... as we able to regulate the input into the mic so the audio picked up the mix without clipping. The rest of the core sounds and playing came across and was a useable reference. For me, the drums don't drive the tracks..but to be fair, a better mix might allow me to elaborate. I think the drums need to be big and at the forefront as they have to dominate...or at least not get swamped by twin gtrs. I would think your sort of material needs a very good P.A and sound... as the gtrs will invaribly be very powerful and over-dominant very easily. The vox are hard to cut thru unless the P.A has a lot of volume to give..as those low vox tend not to project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
