Recording Session

Today we recorded a session in the studio with another band. I was part of the floor crew, so I miked up the drums and singer. We set up a midi keyboard through a di box, and also a bass guitar through a di box. We had some trouble with the bass guitar. It sounded very distorted. We changed all the cables and input, but it still sounded bad. We found out that a member of the band had applied some amp farm effects to the track that we had bass on as they wanted to overdub some guitar. By this time we had already miked up the bass amp instead of going through a di box. The result was fine. We will mix the recording next week.
