That does sound good. Well done!
Love the mic Pron Gut...any chance to listen to the results? Hell I'd love to hear each individual track to see how it builds up (to 5.1 Surround?).
I just made my first Soundcloud upload- an initial mixdown of the recordings from that organ trio session I posted about a few weeks ago. The idea behind these recordings was to get some material for the band's promotional CD and websites. All these tracks have a snare hit at the begining and end of each track so they can sync video to the audio. The tracks are not trimmed or normalized like they would be for CD, but are EQ'd, have some parallel compression applied, and the errant peaks manually knocked down with the volume envelope tool- more of that on the last few numbers when they get cooking. I trimmed the excess between tunes, and it sounds like a studio outake recording with some banter between tracks and a couple false starts, but was played straight through in order, like a live set and the overall dynamics reflect that.
Mic setup was described in my last post (with photo). I was concerned about the drums in that very square living room but the room sound is ok. The only computer I currently have setup for editing has an older version of Samplitude that only supports four channels, so instead of importing the 5 mono channels into the computer, I played it back in real time on the DR680 and did a 5 > 2ch mix down using the monitor mix of the DR-680 > SPDIF > R-44. I then imported the 24/48 stereo file from the R44 and did the work in Samplitude on that 2-channel file.
Band has yet to decide just what they want to do with these. These aren't public files on Soundcloud, but supposedly these 'backdoor' links will let readers of this thread download the FLACs.
Titles aren't listed on Soundcloud but below are links to a few of the ten tracks recorded.
Download the FLACs (16/44) if you like or just give a quick listen to the Soundcloud lossy compressed but instant stream and let me know what you think (anyone know what compression and rate soundcould useds for streaming? It sounds rather compromised to me, but I don't mp3 much)-
