Low-Fi/Emphatic - The Iron Lion

Feedback always appreciated!! Another project track for 2009 - once again slightly metal in flavor. The name "The Iron Lion" may end up as either a song or album title, or a recording surname. This is a mono track, recorded with a Tascam PortaStudio 424 mkIII, polished with Adobe Audition. Johnson Strat copy, Alvarez bass, Adam Percussion kids' size drum shells with Evans heads, DW pedal, Zildjian and Sabian cymbals. Sennheiser and Shure mics.

I want a mkIII so bad. What do you do with Audition afterwords?

[ragejg]

@ChumpJoe I remove hiss, sometimes add some compression and eq... simple stuff. Sometimes I edit the transitions a bit... on my old stuff (my myspace profile) I did a few more things with Audition. ... basically I tried to make the most out of non-optimal recordings. :p

the picture makes me think of the molar I recently had extracted, but killer track bro, r'minds me of bootleg Nirvana....*****

This was intended to have a Sepultura/Queens of the Stone Age feel. Or actually, I guess if you listen to the two other tracks I've published this year that are up on my Youtube account, you'll see that I am kinda getting a consistent individual style going.

Hah, come to think of it, re: Nirvana, I do see a couple short moments that do have that feel. The chorus riff is set up just a bit like Beeswax. And some of it feels a tiny bit Melvins-ish, which is pretty much the father of Nirvana.

Awesome!!!

I love the hiss. I got Audition. I use it to master them. Finally got the mkIII.
