hey :)

today was a good day : after spending weeks to find the good preset / mic / preamp tunnig, I discovered that I had to use an other cabinet to record my rack...I used my trusted JTMC12 , with the voodu valve / velocity on it...

I played the silo, may main guitar these days...sounds so good...

here's the sample :

sorry that I bounced too short...don't worry about the solo, it was a total improvisation in one shot....

next : recording the 20th anniversary !!! :D :D :D
 
Sounds good as always Tristan. :)

Looking forward to hearing the 20th too!

How do you do your backing tracks, if you don't mind me asking?

oddly enough...........i think my first recording w/ a silo is around here somewhere. it's on a cassette . done back in like 89 or so......
i'll try to find it & tranfer it & post it. some kinda home made instrumental wankin.....
i'll try.:D
 
Thanks for the 'making of' video Tristan - nice!

I use Logic on Mac, no problem with guitar, bass and keys but it's usually inspiration on drum patterns that I struggle with. You've got a good technique using the keyboard to 'play' the drums. I'll need to give that a try - it's time-consuming for me programming drums as sequences! :D
 
yes I don't like programming...playing is the best way to get something as fast as good...

now I've switched to mac too...I work with apple france as a demonstrator and they gave me a logic pro...great software, always the best to me !!!
