Spent tonight with Mike and Mary of Audible working on the last song for the record. “14 Weeks” is going to be stripped down compared to the rest of the songs that we’ve been working on together since August. Simply acoustic guitar and vocals.
We spent the evening recording an old metronome and Mike’s Gibson J-45 in my living room, with a distance mic to capture the ambiance of the space. OktavaMod MK-012 pointed where the J-45’s neck meets the body from approx 6″ out in front, and a 1970’s Microtech-Gefell UM-70s approximately 8′ away in omni to capture the sound of the room, which is all hard wood and plaster. Sounds really great.
Vocals are going to happen on Tuesday evening, and then this song is finished.
