Commercial Recording

I started to think about quality control and maintaining a level of professionalism throughout the course of making the EP.  As some of the artists featuring on the EP wouldn't be coming to Manchester to record the vocals in the studio, it got me thinking whether I wanted to risk them recording the material in their own studios and then giving it back to me to mix.
When it comes to recording artists up here in the studios I know that the material will sound on point and to my satisfaction. I have to think long and hard about if I want the artists who can't make it to Manchester to record the material and send it back to me.

First Track For The EP Complete

The EP is fully underway and coming along nicely. The first track is complete and will feature an artist from Manchester called R.C.

Tomorrow I will be having a meeting with R.C to chat about the track, so we can put our heads together and share ideas on how to structure the overall finished product.

For the EP I'm mainly producing all the tracks in Logic 8, this will be the main audio workstation I will use to construct the majority of the tracks. I will also be adding live instrumentation back in the studio and also when it comes to the mixing and mastering stages of the tracks this will be done in the Neve.
