I know I said I probably wouldn’t update this blog everyday and here I am with my second post in a couple of hours!
Well this will probably be the nature of things, either a feast or a famine!
I just got back form a recording session. It went really well and I just wanted to post something about it. I was recording acoustic guitars. I have a always been a 110% in favour of using a mic when recording acoustic guitars. The D.I. On it’s own, even with today’s pickups tends to give a dry and brittle sound. For this session I used 2 mics and a line from the pickup into a D.I.
I got a sound I am really happy with. So while I don’t think I would ever use a line out on it’s own, I have to say it covers any of the small frequency areas not covered so well by the mics.
I just wanted to pass that little bit of info along!

Hello there,
I have finally caved in and started a blog! I have to be perfectly honest, this is not actuallly my first experience with blogs. I have been experimenting with blogs on other sites for a while now so I finally decided to take the plunge and start one for my own site.
As anyone who follows my site regularly will already know, I recently released a collection of remastered demos. The first solo album is currently being recorded and will be out soon. In the meantime due to demand I decided to release the remastered demos as an album called The Plan.
What can you expect from this blog? Well, I won’t promise to update it regularly because I probably won’t do it. On the other hand I will keep it updated with any important information so ti will be a good place to check back to.
Rather than have a separate news section, this blog will double as a news section as well so I looking forward to keeping in contact with you all and bye for now!
