Mastering The Fail...

So I was mastering a song last night, and for some reason, until I after I mastered it, the levels on two parts of a song decided to go quieter than the rest of the song. Thus making me so angry, and I can't go back and change it because of the way the recorder is set up.
Adding to the frustration was that this was a song I had recorded for the THIRD time because, well, I didnt think the other two versions were good enough.
So...
But, I've tried my best to get over it, and maybe it'll still sound good and go kind of un-noticed when it's released.

Thank you...

I guess.

Under Construction With A Guitar

This is a band crafted by myself, Eric- featuring myself. As of now its a one man band, when I start college in January I hope it turns into more than just myself.
I will have material as soon as I'm done mixing half of the songs I've finished.
Also, when I finish the 4 songs that are half finished.

My studio consists of:
Boss BR-600 recorder.
Tom DeLonge Epiphone for guitar.
A Yamaha Keyboard(I forgot what model, its the fancy one with 98723 different styles/voices/effects)
Marshall MXL2003 Studio Condenser Mic
Myself for vocals...
Zoom G1.1x (or something) Effects pedal.
Boss OD-2 overdrive and or distortion pedal.
Lots of pens and paper and guitar Picks on every surface of my house.
Oh, and lots and lots of Monster Cables.

I'm in the middle of getting photos of myself performing the goodness that is me in my studio haha...

The name Studio Life came to me because... life in an envrionment of a studio is.. awesome.
So...


More TO Come...
