Audio Remastering
My audio job today involved re-mastering more Nobz recordings for possible release this year. The Nobz were the punk / new wave band that I was in during the late seventies. Despite the three hours of work that mastering engineer, Kevin Glenn, and I spent on these recordings, it is going to take a little more tweaking to get them into a releasable state. On the studio recordings, the bass guitar is too loud and boomy on the first two songs, yet not quite loud enough on a couple of others, despite the fact that all of the studio recordings were done at the same studio. One live song needs the vocal frequencies boosted. This job is starting to resemble some mixing jobs that I have done in the past where each successive mix is worse than the previous one… No… I can’t really say that. I did improve these mixes today. I will just have to be careful when adjusting the offending frequencies during the next session, whenever that is. The studio is in Duluth, Georgia, which is a two and a half hour drive from where I live.
