Hi list
It is not often people talk about metal music on this list, but I
thought somebody might find this interesting if for nothing else, then
for the tools used and the resulting production.
I would like to share an EP release from my band Seed of Heresy recorded
and mixed using Ardour on linux with the exception of vocals and guitar
tracking, which was done in another studio using proprietary non-linux
tools.
The EP is released under Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC-BY-NC-SA)
license and is available in several formats on the website:
http://www.seedofheresy.com
The release was done on December 21st 23:03, UTC, 2014, which is the
exact time of winter solstice.
The drums were performed by myself in the very same studio depicted in
the zthmusic interview I did back in january - and so are not DrumGizmo ;-)
Enjoy!
Kind regards

Up front: I like it and think it's very acceptable quality in music and production.
The drums sound tooo dry for the wide wall of guitar sound. Some reverb on the cymbals and
toms would cure that impression of two completely different components. Also the snare
needs more high frequency content or accentuation to really persist against the guitars
and the very bright open hihat.
In Phantom Legion there's a slowly shuffled sound or instrument in the background. Is
that the bass? It sounds odd and confuses me.
Thank you for sharing this, I have heard much worse in terms of music and production even
from commercial bands. Good and steady drumming!

IMHO the sound is consistent. It's missing transparency, but apart
from some "freshness" (boosting high frequencies at 10 K might do the
job, didn't test it, since I didn't listen to a song completely) and
from making the kick a little bit louder, the mix IMHO is ok.

When there's the need to ask, then the mix isn't transparent! Less
compression and more EQing with knowhow IMHO is needed.

Thanks for sharing, I like the attitude of Witch Blood: the intro has some
low poundin sound (processed kick drum? Nice :) and at 0:38 when the vocals
start the mix really "splits" to allow the vox in: love it.
Congrats, good production! -Harry

I disagree, the mix is consistent, but missing the kick and
transparency (I downloaded the flacs). Apart from that I nearly got a
tendonitis just from listening and I dislike letterings that aren't
human readable. OTOH it's the best Christmas music I heard from
yesterday until today, among the music I didn't chose myself.
Since it's from YouTube transparency is missing too, but the kick is
more audible and I don't get a tendonitis, even when playing it,
because there are breaks and "slower" parts:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svPDAV0ebRA
Perhaps the reason is, that I'm from another generation?
Honestly, I prefer old school black punk rock music:

How do you get tendonitis listening to music? Were you headbanging? :-P

Thanks you. I don't know Kylesa, but will check them out.

Good music!
IMO rehearsal and stage live recordings most of the times are much
better than studio recordings.
Two of my favourites vinyls are 'Irish Tour '74' (Gallagher) and 'No
Sleep 'til Hammersmith' (Motörhead).
You can't do better in a studio.
Even Metallica's 'Garage Days', unfortunately without Cliff Burton, is
very nice (still the recordings from the original bands are far better,
even their studio recordings, than the Garage Day versions ;).

IMO rehearsal and stage live recordings most of the times are much
better than studio recordings.
Two of my favourites vinyls are 'Irish Tour '74' (Gallagher) and 'No
Sleep 'til Hammersmith' (Motörhead).
You can't do better in a studio.
Even Metallica's 'Garage Days', unfortunately without Cliff Burton, is
very nice (still the recordings from the original bands are far
better, even their studio recordings, than the Garage Day versions ;).
That reminds me of one of the nicest cover versions, resp.
interpretations ever:
Poison Idea playing MC5's Kick Out the Jams:

You'll find the MC5 among the recordings I own, but I likely someday
will own Poisons Idea's version too. Too bad that the guitarist is
dead :(.

As much as I love the 'Tour' album, I still IMHO consider Rory's best
album to be a studio recorded one, simply titled "Rory Gallagher".
Part of this is because of the style of playing which Rory didn't
really get into during his live gigs, but which to me at least shows
where his heart was when not influenced by an audience. This album more
than any other (maybe exceptint "Deuce") shows Rory to be so much more
than a rock guitarist (no insult intended) with a touch of finesse
never really matched since those early days.
Having said all that tho, it is only my personal Taste (boom boom) ;)

I own this record as vinyl too and never liked it. OTOH it's one of my
few vinyls that already have a bar code. And the 'Rory Gallagher'
original is from 1971, my one shows (C) 1971, (P) 1979 and a patch
'Digital Metal Dmm Mastering', so it likely was remastered and IMO with
a remaster usually nothing good comes. I guess I bought it in the 80s,
so remastered doesn't mean 'loudness war', but perhaps something that is
similar bad. However, I haven't listen to it since years, perhaps
decades. Maybe I'll listen to it today or at least in January. I places
the record beside the turntable. It might be that I like it nowadays.
However, 'Irish Tour '74' is one of the best rock recordings ever. It's
not only accepted and liked by people who make rock music, but it's
also a favourite of many jazz musicians. It quasi is a "masterclass"
recording, not simply another rock recording.

Ralf

I wish I could get clean recordings like that of my church band's live
performances. You must have a good room setup!

It is not often people talk about metal music on
this list, but I
thought somebody might find this interesting if for nothing else, then
for the tools used and the resulting production.
I would like to share an EP release from my band Seed of Heresy recorded
and mixed using Ardour on linux with the exception of vocals and guitar
tracking, which was done in another studio using proprietary non-linux
tools.

The drums were performed by myself in the very same studio depicted in
the zthmusic interview I did back in january - and so are not DrumGizmo ;-)
not really Metal anymore but I would like to take the opportunity to
share the latest recordings from my band which are entirely recorded and
mixed with Ardour and the Calf-plugins:
https://soundcloud.com/necrane/twoonethreetwo
They are live recordings at rehearsal without fancy studio or any
professional audio engineering but I already learned much by using Linux
for audio stuff.

There's a lot of metal stuff posted here! I've posted some myself, in
fact (I lean more towards the traditional styles of metal, though).
Production-wise it sounds OK, guitars are kind of muddy, but I think
that's kind of the sound typically used for this kind of metal.
