Vocal recording for 2 Survive at Maplewood Studio

[1TeddyValdes]

Powerful voice sir...

[DrEviscerator666]

Awesome fucking voice! Reminds me of Zakk Wylde's, Beautifully masculine voice!

[trigapula]

what mic is that it looks huge

[miguelpessanha]

@trigapula the one thats looks huge is a shure sm 7 the other one he's using i don't know for shure but i guess is a audio technica at 2020!

[trigapula]

[faji187]

this guy and his vocals just piss me off

[pchopjones]

was all this recorded with the apogee duet ?

[bladerunner12]

So when's this particular compilation of awesomesauce set to come out?

[TheSchoolsux345]

at around 1:00 i took a sip of iced tea and almost spat it everywhere im still laughing

[caseyforever]

is the Mic to the left of the reflection filter being used? or is it just sitting there? (curious if that's some cool mic'ing technique!) :)

[JWG1994]

This kinda has an Alter Bridge-ish vibe to it. Well done!

[queerp]

can someone please tell me exactly what is behind the mic?! I need that really bad. I'm just not sure what it's called. Thanks

[futurerockstar09]

:O you have a chappers cam too?

[MrZerox123]

Hey chappers awesome song ive said this before but id love to have this song on my computer and ipod. Where may i go to buy? Id also love to be more involved in what your doing. i really like your humor and style of presenting amps and guitars and pedals. Not to mention im def going to buy a ml series guitar from you soon. Living in the USa now this sucks. I hate conversion rates. And ha you are the total british def of a tramp. hah americans have dif def. But yeah mate i think your great as u r

[ahvaimusicom]

@MrZerox123 i want one too but im in the Great White North, they are what 3-1 or something?

[ThatDudeRhys]

Chappers! When will this be released on iTunes???

I NEED TO KNOW!

[IMPISSOFF]

I saw AC/DC Ballbreaker... awesome.

[TheMetalHeaD256]

hey chappers, i really want to be able to sing and play guitar. how do you do it? because i can't even SPEAK when playing guitar usually unless it's something really simple and if the vocal melody goes exactly with the guitar part. i'd really like some help. have you got any exercises you did to learn how, or something?

[SuperRockgod666]

dude, you need to turn down your awesomeness knob. it's killing my youtube.

[FuzzySnuggz]

Goddamn Chappers you have one booming voice. I dig it dude! \m/

[Vanjal]

I'm wondering...why did you record drums, bass and el. guitar on the same track ? It leaves you practically no chances to mix it to sound good that way since everything is glued together as if it was mixed pre-master bounce.

Wasn't easier way to record drums first with few mices (or one if you can't multi) and than layers of guitars, bass, keys, vocals, whatever....

[nielda155]

hey where can i get this song???

[johnstarsh]

This song reminds me of sex

[Ajt8000]

Very 90's, i love it =D

im actually excited about this album =D !!!!! _\m/

[arcuz92]

Nice t-shirt man ;) I TOTALLY LOVE Alter Bridge!

[freakstupid11]

still likin the chap-man's voice, but i freakin love the studio setup...wants...

[MetalFTWin]

man this song sounds awesome! You've got a great voice, my friend. When will this song be released?

[virgult]

Can anybody tell me the model of that Suhr microphone standing near the SE Gemini?

[virgult]

@virgult errrr... I meant Shure. :P

[BlackDiamond351]

anyone else loving this ad at the side of the video saying 'COR BLIMEY' with some tasty looking burgers under it?

[Hailstonedpikachu]

sounds good!, can't wait do be hearing some finished product. mmm finished product

[Recklessroads]

I think you have a great voice.

[Nickpatient]

Yay for Chappy on vocals! :) On the new singer video I remember sitting there trying to think of a way to "What the fuck!? Chappers kicks this guys arse!" :D

[869594]

sounding absolutewly frikkin awsome!!

btw out of interest, what audio editing program are you guys using for this?

[malamutelocomotive]

Your voice matches perfectly with the song... You're a pretty good singer, actually!

[BraydonSzafranski]

This was an interesting insight... I learned about the man that is Chappers and his rosacea. It's really too bad that the singer left. He seemed a bit flaky and not entirely into it. Even if you had a singer, I think that your voice is right for your music and has a unique sound. It IS your music, after all, and your inexperience gives the vocals an edge and power that is still inchoate. I still don't understand why you can't change the '2' to 'To' in the title of the song, though...

[vileguile]

wow, must be hard singing with a camera up yoru face o.O i would only be able to do that during my bipolar highs ;) Maybe you're pretty used of it now ;)

and yeah, keep that voice cracking!

[SatchJimmy]

PROJECTILE BEARD HAIR...

[unclesuperfly]

Good Tubes Rob..

Is it too early to start talking about a 'Monkey Lord' Christmas No.1

[Lordgout]

@MrStickMonkey The glowing ones that change colour. I've seen them before somewhere but I cant remember for the life of me where from! If you could enlighten me!

Cheers dude!

[nefty73]

That tune has a King's X type of vibe to it. Sounds good!

[underdog7676]

@nefty73 I agree kind of "dogman" sound.

[IronGuitarist]

its like a sober zakk wylde that plays more exciting blues licks (from what i hear from this song)

[1t1o1m]

chappers = amazing singer !!!!

[scorpia616]

Rob your voice sounds great when it's pushed into that grittiness! you should try to capture that on every song. :)

[DimebagHetfield696]

Is that Logic you're using to record? Im currently learning how to edit and stuff in Logic for my Music Tech course and I was thinking of recording my bands EP with it. Is it any good? or is Pro Tools better? Cheers! YOU ROCK CHAPPERS! \m/

[BMBsWhyNot]

Rob you're an awesome singer dude, keep it up!!

[BCI9279]

Your voice is pretty damn powerful!

[saronrock]

omg this is gonna be AMAZING >:D

[leftpassenger]

Dude, you've got some killing vocals! Wish I were as good as you are. Especially when your voice get's a bit rough.

[ESPEasel]

Are you going to do any George Corpsegrinder style vocals ;)

[Bollehamsteren]

The first two or three lines really surprised me. I'm impressed, you're quite the singer! :D

[demonix888]

what happened to "tells me so" after "intuition?!

[TheEnglishWay1]

Studio vids are always thee best :D

[Vooova]

Hi Rob! I'm a bit surprised you seem to have a right singing technique even though you said in some video that you just figured it out by singing in your car. I had to take vocal lessons for a year before I got it. I think with some training you can be a damn good rock singer! I hear a lots of improvement compared to the videos you posted about a year ago! My vocal coach always told me to try imagine the voice in front of your head, if done right it gives a more focused sound! Give it a try! :)

[RustyR]

Rob, I'd love it if you could post some lyrics of this song. I'd love to be able to sing along to it!

[Lordgout]

This is going to sound really odd but, do you by any chance know where Stick got those lights around his computer?

[thork86]

@MrStickMonkey  that would be awesome, thank you Mr. Stickles!

[angrygoldfish]

I can definitely hear the Alice in Chains vibe in this song.

[levans6824]

i find myself trying to be really quiet while I'm watching this video...

[MuratCandogan]

@MrStickMonkey LOVE U man ! :D

[MuratCandogan]

@MrStickMonkey stick please make a (at least 1 :D ) video(s) about recording. How can we record and how do we get more performance / what is your magic man:P while recording.. make your home studio under 1000£ :P kinda like that.. i would like to learn somethings about recording from you :)

thank you...

[Zorlak108]

damn, you've got a pretty good voice dude!

[AdamLeeGuitarist]

Why you were looking for another singer still puzzles me... You have such an amazing voice, Rob! :-D

[EJRocky]

Oh shit, projectile beard hairs.

Don't piss Rob off. He'll fire 'em at you like the hair attack of the Goliath Tarantula.

[lighteningboy]

Reminds me of Black Label a little bit...

[youtubkevin]

great dude !!

[babynbababa]

I constantly follow your records, and i smell epic win. Gimme a LP dudes! Btw, isn't that cool to have a stuido guy in a band?

[shatoutofhell72]

It's coming together well guys :D @Rob: Do you feel comfortable singing without the guitar in hand?

[RobChappers]

@shatoutofhell72 Singing is still new to me - it's synchronizing the two that I find hard...

[masterrofl]

@RobChappers i agree, it's "easy" to sing now in the studio, but when you get up on the stage and have to sing as good as here while you're playing...not easy at all:D

[bandslater]

@RobChappers I hear that mate, i have just about got the hang of it! Anything too twiddly though and i cant do it.

[HIGHVOLTAGE393]

@RobChappers i have the exact same problem mate. i really need to learn

[davemis40]

Playing and singing live is gonna be a compromise .. I want to see you free to play on stage.

[tollan23]

what happened to your other singer? Did he sling his hook?

[ascp67]

Great guys, Rob your voice has a touch of the Paul Rogers about it. Excellent.

[alapunk13]

Can I has your album? lol

[Ibik]

what happend to your singer?

[MonkeyZo0]

Sounds great. I'm really happy that you are the singer again. Nice power trio.

[sXeSnowmansXe]

Awesome voice man. You remind me a lot of Paul Gilbert.

[strats4ever321]

What happened to the new singer?

[RobChappers]

@strats4ever321 He left dude... 

[masterrofl]

@RobChappers probably for the best, love your voice dude! don't wont some beardless guy singing on your tunes:D

[Ckay]

@RobChappers

why the singer left?

[JakkeLegault]

@RobChappers dude what happened with him?

[Xer0Tr0n]

@RobChappers WHAT DAW IS THAT? WHAT PROGRAM IS HE USING?

[joehanson100]

@Xer0Tr0n Logic Pro 9

[Rockstarshredder101]

@RobChappers good rob your an awesome singer you sing like no other because you have the WIN on your side !

[masterrofl]

@strats4ever321 he didn't like pizza...:D

[THEGSPOT0394]

@strats4ever321 i dont think it was gonna work. he was to smooth. monkey lord is about the grit (which is good). Chappers can provide the grit.

[rickyjshiznit]

NEVER stand in front of chappers while he sings... he has projectile beard hair.

[howard86385]

Great lyrics! ...excellent singing.

[albooher1]

HIIIEEEEEEE-Yaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!­!! Ninja Monkey Lord! haha!

Alas, we see he is only a mere mortal.....who works diligently and effectively as to master his craft.......Killer vid Rob..... I appreciate a look behind the scenes at the creation as it takes place...

Rock On!!

[mgshred]

Sounds sorta like soundgarden at certain parts

[B0B0damonkey]

sweet marshall in the backround around 5:00-5:30

[andest]

very kings x vibe in good way Rob!

[Umaiketsu]

Face is gettin' a little red there Chappers.

[PRSguy94]

When will this be available for purchase? It sounds incredible!

[TheJohnPetras]

You guys should ask Russell Allen to do some special guest vocals.

Chappers is not bad at all but Allen is just a howling cheetag in a mans body.

[TimTehPilot]

bit red in the face...

[RobChappers]

@TimTehPilot  I get rosacia

[mitchell797979]

@TimTehPilot wouldnt you if you so full of win?

[JS1200Player]
