Bedside Studios - Posted on 2013-09-13 by Max Becker-Golden

My second lesson at Bedside was just as much fun as the first. We were doing guitar overdubbing with The Perpatrators.  This entailed setting up the close amp mic and a couple room mics. Close and far. The guitarist was a very talented player so getting through the takes was a breeze and the tunes were great blues/rock sounding songs.  Seeing as it was my second lesson I didnt get to actually run any of the gear but a lot more was explained to me about the studios signal flow and pre-amp set up.  The patch bay was left for another time as we were busy with tracking.  Honestly I spent a lot of time just starring at the 6 rack bays just trying to burn into my brain where things were and what kind of parameters there were so I wouldnt have to scramble later when it counted. I know I wont be in this environment for ever so I need to take in as much as I can, If that means starring at gear, and reasearching the things I dont know during down time when there isnt anything else I could be doing, Ill be doing it.  Cant wait for my next time there.
