Some sampling used in the latest work…

Finished this guy up tonight (TB550A). Not the easiest of builds, as mentioned patience is key. I made a couple careless mistakes along the way, but all are resolved. TIP – Triple check alignment/orientations at all stages. For the time being I’ve loaded it up with a pair of 990’s & a CMOQ-2S. I might swap out the 990’s at some point, but I have to say it’s performing very well as is. Great EQ kit.

I recently scored this wonderful, but horribly pink toy piano. I found this to be a perfect opportunity to experiment with a few mic techniques. That, and I can never turn down the opportunity for over-the-top ridiculousness.
The result of testing out the D5100 video capabilities. Everything is shot thru a 18-200 with marco ring, no post processing (other then time manipulation).
Audio = Discarded crap drum tracks+Grendel+a lot of coffee. I was feeling a bit guilty that the Grendel Drone Commander was collecting dust, this was a perfect excuse to fire it up. Amazing what a little #ValhallaÜberMod adds to a bunch of BS.
Well this creature decided to disrupt my recording this wet morning. It just wouldn’t shut-up, & So it became the subject. I had a DIY contact mic & my RED ready to go, I taped the contact mic to the window & it picked up surprisingly well.
- Left CH = Contact / Right CH = RED Type B R8 via ADL-600
- 24/96
Thanks to a night of insomnia I decided to tryout Valhalla UberMod & the octatracks realtime mangling/processing capabilities for the 1st time. Realitime recording single take mix pass.

Found a old 1957 vinyl test record the other day with a few gems. I sampled the intriguing 1890 MusicBox, A humorous sound FX quiz that is oddly reminiscent of a Josh silver/Peter Steele production, & a 440 tone. I’ve always enjoyed the test tone narrations of MRL & records like these.
