Recording

Eiya.. Now I have some time to talk about this. (^^)

On Friday ( 27th June 2008 ), my friends and I finally went to the studio and finish up the final part of the whole documentary, that is the narration. We went to the studio which I work at ( got special rate ma... ).

But before that, we went over the Leisure Mall and loiter around for a little while. We delayed for an hour because the client before us did not leave. Supposedly 3pm, we ended up starting at 4pm. Anyways, no problem. We just hung around in Leisure Mall. (^^) We did not do much there. Spent some time walking around, trying to find the magazine I want, and went over to a shop to get some dessert. (^^) Accompanied my friend to get washing powder and bla bla bla..

Back to the recording. Hmm... I guess it was an experience for my friends who have not been to an actual studio for recording.

First and foremost, we recorded the narration. Hui Hsing and I took turns recording. Well, my boss ended up saying that we did not sound happy enough. Lol... (^^) It did not make him feel like going to Melaka with the narration we had. So did a little change in intonation and mood, and sounded much better. (^^) Hehe... narration was easy to record. It's all talking. Lol..

But the tougher part is during the song recording. Hui Hsing took some time to get the ending proper and presentable, and while recording the first track of guitar, boss suggested that we record another guitar track to make it sound more stereo and thus be able to cover up mistakes. On the other hand, able to save time and energy as well. (^^) Boss is pro, u know?? haha.. So we did. And yeap! Sounded a lot better .. (^^) Hui Hsing pretty much enjoyed himself I suppose. Listening back to your own playing brings a great feeling of accomplishment.

The same goes for listening back to your own singing. But it was more like being embarrassed actually. Haha... It took me some time to really make it sound a lot better, but somehow I think that it still ain't nice. But since this is just a first time, so I guess I can pardon myself for not doing such a great job. haha.. but the experience was worth it all, it was fun and adrenaline-rushing cool! haha... Now that I have another song, I hope that I will be able to work it out and make it good. (^^) Till then, I still need the musician for the music. Haha..

Anyways, this is all. It is really great and I hope that we all enjoyed ourselves. (^^)

Alright.. Gonna work on some stuff..
