Well, I haven't been updating my blog, but I haven't had a lot to say as far as Major Project goes; it has taken a back seat since Christmas as I've been busy with other assignments.
Still, the DVD authoring and surround recording presentation went... well? I guess it was the shape of the room, but there was some massive bass buzz on all of my tracks which I'm sure I got rid of in the studio, Anyway, now I have a couple of weeks to concentrate on my major project and getting most of the compositions done if I can.
I had an idea for creating some of my own drum samples and then recording my parts using an electric drum kit. This would mean it's easier to adjust the tracks to make them more in time and fix any duff notes, the only problem though is that this would remove some of the recording element of my project.
I would still record some drum parts, as I want the duets to sound like a different drummer on their own kit is playing in the room with you, but this could end up being only about 15 minutes worth of recorded material + the material for my own samples, then the rest would essentially be midi sequencing. I guess I could push that I'm striving for as much realism as possible through digital techniques.. or something.
Anyway, I'm organising a meeting with Paul sometime next week to discuss it, then I can really get into my project properly.
