Topic: My first experience in a professional studio

We spent four hours in the studio to get one song. It's an instrumental song called Fall Line. It's a punk surf song, and it's named after a skiing term. See, in Michigan, we don't surf half as much as we ski! wink


Here's a photo of my rig in the isolation booth.

Here's an un-mastered version that we left the studio with: Fall Line

Our process was cool:
1. jam on the song (recorded) four or so times till it feels good.
2. delete everything from the jam except drums
3. get the drums "in time" and sounding good.
4. re-record bass
5. re-record leads
6. re-record rhythm


Looking forward to hearing what everyone thinks of the track!
