We've used the funding from our acoustic album to get the gear we need in our studio up to date. So that means we are now the prod owners of a mixing desk, a range of digital interfaces, mics, headphone amps and computer studio programmes. I have to be honest and say that it has taken us a few weeks to work out how to use it all, but we are now in the position of being to record high quality demos ourselves, tweak and refine the sound we are looking for and then, when we are ready to bring a producer in be as ready as we can be. From experience i would argue that this is important for any band as with producer time being very expensive being absolutely ready is essential. So here's to getting demo number one finished this afternoon and maybe even get the next one well underway.
Cheers
