Into the Primordial Studio Diary Part 6

Today we began around 6:30. Our quest: to demolish the rhythm guitar tracks in a single evening. We journeyed across a harsh sonic landscape and overcame great programming obstacles, but in the end we raised our trophy victoriously; the guitar tracks were conquered! We are now almost halfway done with recording our debut epic, and things are sounding fantastic. In order, Tim recorded the parts for “Sarnath,” “Into The Primordial,” “Second Son,” “Warsong,” “Supernatural Warfare,” and “Haunter Of The Dark.” It was in the final track that we ran into some MIDI problems yet again. We forgot to program an entire section into the MIDI! Needless to say, this caused great sorrow in the Burning Shadows camp until we resolved to fix the MIDI before our next session and then fix the tracks afterwards. Despite this minor setback, the foundation for the album is complete; the drums and rhythm guitars are recorded, and Tim’s leads are next on the list. We’re scheduled to have an off day tomorrow, and we will return to the studio on Thursday. Then, we will let the mighty layering of tracks commence…!
