The Wilderness/Esa

[MrMarshall9o9]

Hey guys I am new to this site, and i saw the bash my recordings section and wanted to know what you though of these recordings.

This band (ESA) never got together so it is just a bunch of tracks of guitar (me) with an ipod drum set.

This band (The Wilderness) I was recording my friend's backyard show and the guy controlling all of it wouldn't let me touch anything so I sat in the backyard at a desk with two condenser mics pointing at the stage.

Some good stuff goin on. IMO the drums track needs to be brought forward quite a ways into the mix, and I think you have too much stereo effecting going on. It is very confusing to the ears. But definitely some good ideas.

on the first one: it's very boomy... some eq'ing would be in place. the intro sounds much better than when the two guitars start riffing. i agree on the drums thing, they sound very weak and need to be panned (dunno if that's possible with your setup, not sure what an "ipod drum set" is).
