Fighting the Force to Record some Music!

Well it seems that the forces are against KHP finishing the album on time. Most of us had the day off yesterday, so starting at about 10 a.m. we geared up to get a load of work done. We got everything set up, and one channel of the Sebatron pre-amp wasn’t working. It had been shorting out and giving us trouble for the past few sessions, but we were hoping it would make it through the holidays. Unfortunately, we can’t record drums without this pre-amp. It is being sent off to be repaired and so recording has now been postponed until we have it back. We did however spend the full day trying to get a good lead Guitar take through the good channel of the pre-amp. We had to try a few options to get the right sound, but we finally figured it out. Now we will need to do a few takes to get it perfect!

On another note on the recording front, I got a call from one of the guys from the SPMC rally that we played last year in Montana. (We will also be playing in 2009) He was calling to verify my address so that he can send me a CD of our live recording from the rally! What? I didn’t even know they recorded it! They took our live set and picked a handful of the best songs and sent them to a studio to be mixed and mastered. Then he will pick the 3 best out of that set to put on the 2008 SPMC Rally CD!! How cool is that? So I am really excited to hear what this CD sounds like! So keep your ears nearby because it will be coming soon!
