im not a real big DEP fan but i like the few songs ive heard from them and theyre great live.

Okay, I've been doing the recording for The Package, and it's not working too nicely. I need to tweak the settings for the mic and it should be good then. If anyone knows of a good place to put it (I only have one mic), suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

DEP is one of my favorite bands. It'd be impossible to do that **** live and yet they pull it off.

GIGANTOUR

\m/(>_<)\m/

I might be taking a bus to Gigantour if it runs through there on Saturday. That would rule.

Oh, and not having a car and being able to drive it really blows.

What is missing in your sound? it dsnt have to be perfect, try to tape it to the side wood of the floor tom.

Try to imitate the song but dont sweat it if it dsnt come off perfect

Time for me to whore my thread.......

It works and everything, it just doesn't sound good. I'll put it up as soon as I get it onto this computer. By the way, what's the best way to get the file so that you can hear it?

try audioclick and yousendit, theyre both free. pick wichever you prefer.

Uploaded and lets see if its that bad.:)




Moses: its 12 am, i cant really analize stuff right now:(

I can't put it up right now. I'm at my mom's and my drums/other computer that I recorded onto are at my dad's. I'll try to move it over tomorrow and you can hear it.

Alright, I shall record the bass part as soon as I pick up my bass :)

Is there any way to get yousendit.com to work without sending it directly via email? Can I just post the file up somehow?

Thanks.[/QUOTE] too many variables to have one "sweet spot" with only one mic, like i have a heavy foot, so i can put more attention on my cymbals and toms, and my bass will still get heard. depending on how you play will vary the sound, so just expirement.

When you're done uploading and sending, a page will come up with a link, and it leads to the download. post that link wherever you want and people can use it.

Yeah, the mic picks up too much. It will get really scratchy, especially when I'm using an open high hat. I dunno, I'll play around with it tomorrow and try to get the best results I can, so hopefully I'll have it up for listening in the next couple of days.

Edit: Okay, thanks Sliptallica.

Ye take your time with it, try to get the bass nicely like in the song :thumb:

[Eh... It's because he's happyt now, and off drugs.


And drugs = good music]
That said, Maynard, Adam and Justin(cant say the same for Danny) have all tried to conciounciously get off their drugs and try get a natural high. They stated this right after Ænima, that said they created Lateralus, a masterpiece, sober-ish. Personally i dont consider alcohol to be too much of a bad drug....we all know Maynards wine-fetish

I know **** all, but I read something about this one and someone mentioned the solution is to wrap a stocking stretched around a coat hanger over the mic. Or am i thinking of something totally different.

Are you serious?

hey guys i was wondering if any of you have tried The Lateralus,Aenima,Undertow codes

The Lateralus one was tried, and everything except the begining sounded forced. It isn't anything to go crazy about. It's cool, but it didn't make some whole new complete thing.

i don't know it sounded cool to me, just with what i've heard. but i found out from this website aiden.vzz.net it shows what to do basically for Aenima and undertow too.

ya we know

oh by the way, my feet suck so "part of me" came out.....blah......i wish my feet were more accurate and speedy....aenima also involves 16th note triplets, which are gonna be a beast to pull off for me, (if there was a way to hit the bass drums with my hands i would have tried it) :)

Why wouldn't I be serious? I've read it in interviews. but the reason i said "cant say the same for danny" is because everyone knows that guy still enjoys his DMT. Maynard hasnt dropped acid or smoked weed in god knows how long, same with Adam. they all said they are introduced to that level of thinking and try to rereach that level without the use of the drug and its all about using your 3rd eye.

If your talking about the 'learn to swim....' part, it's really very simple once your able to co-ordinate your hands and feet for the H-F-F H-F-F...pattern.

just a little off topic, but I hope Tool's new cd comes out earlier than 2006.

Probably no such luck...

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Who doesn't?[/QUOTE]
true.

Faith!

If you get the drum track for aenima recorded, will you be ok about entering it in the July Cover competition?...it would be a collaboration, all that would be needed is a bass part, I should be able to get the vocals done, and I already have the guitar..

What part of the song?

16th note triplets rule...

Marshall- Did you upload Part of Me?

My favourite tool rumour atm

[QUOTE]...-..--.-- is the name of Danny's new daughter. They didn't send out
birth announcements because this one was strictly for eating, she's
going to be Thanksgiving dinner this year for the band.

Because, as everyone knows, they eat babies.

Don't ask me how/why I know this, I just have a wonderful friend.

They even said they'd save me a drumstick![/QUOTE]

Ah it's all so clear now.

Ok, I have an empty house, what is there to be recorded? I could redo Stinkfist, and hope that it will magically sync up with Expresso's drum track, but I won't be using flange, so should I wait and do something else?

I just wanna record right now. :(

You mind doing some apc?

Well, I could learn one, but I have an open house [i]now[/i], so I want to get something recorded, but yeah. The Package, right? I'll get a tab for it.
