| Martin Simpson |
Another Museum-based recording, this time featuring the renowned English guitarist Martin Simpson. He is an amazing guitarist and extremely pleasant to work with. For this session, I basically set the levels and let 'er rip. Set-up was painfully easy: a vocal mic and guitar input. However, I did try something radically different with the mixdown. I used a new feature that just came out in Digital Performer 6 called ProVerb, which is a convolution reverb plug-in. I passed both tracks into 3 separate busses, one for each reverb "space" (left, center and right) and panned the reverb channels left, center and right respectively to "build" an interesting room. I think it turned out pretty well. |
