AA Project - Recording

The final project for this semester is to record a band. I recorded the band that plays in my church and a song that a friend of mine wrote/arranged for this band. We were originally recording another song by another person, but she was too busy to finish the song.

The recording session was on 16th June and all went well in the set up until I tried to connect the input through the wallbay. After 3 hours of setting up and trying to find out how it should be done properly, we started recording.

There weren't much problem after the gains were set (although the gains had to be set really low because of clipping). Mic placements were not so good because I could hear so much spills from the other parts of the drums.

Mixing it and producing it is even harder, only then I realised that I should have made sure that everything was recorded right before I left, since none of them can re-record again (too busy with work).

Overall, this gave me a really great experience albeit all the mess involved. I am interested in recording a better and more organised project in the future.
