Ok, So woke up early in Stockholm to take a flight up to North Sweden for a weekend of recording the Banished Privateers. Spent the afternoon in the studio preparing for tomorrow and Sundays recording sessions. Met Nils, a lovely guy who owns a studio, near a lake, just 40mins from Umeå (Link to his studio).
We are in a really nice studio in the centre of Umeå. There's 12 instruments... A couple will be DI'd as well (Double Bass and Guitars) so that we have more choice in mixdown. So most of the day was spent selecting mics and deciding where to place people in the room.
As its a folk based band (Folk Punk is Björns, the band leaders, actual description! lol) We have gone for the option of recording live, all in together, and are going to try it with no 'headphone mix'. Ive never tried this before, but this makes sense as I want the musicians to be as comfortable as possible, as many havent recorded in a studio before. (I'll let you know how this goes).
So at the end of day 1 and the session is set up in Pro Tools, all mics have been checked, everything is sounding great and I'm ready to roll!
