MPA 408 Lab 04/09/10 Working On Our Day Off

Furlough Day... Fortunately, we were still able to go around the red tape and get to work. After being informed that vocals should begin winding down within the next couple days, I pitch the idea of still holding our lab session (if it were at all possible). After, making a few calls Nick returned with a positive verdict. Regarding setup we continued with the same arrangement that we've been using all along (CM7 / makeshift mic booth). Because Shannon was unable to attend the impromptu Lab i use the entire time to knock my remaining contributions. This included 3 verses on one of Shannon's songs (Take You To Another Level) and 1 verse on the other (Understand). Next we tried an experimental approach to lacing lyrics on Nicks Tune, to help facilitate the process we recorded the verse in takes (live comping? a technique often employ at home on pre production material). Once recording culminated we went back and looked over the album material thus and found aesthetics for improving. I believe we were in and out in about 2 hours flat, it was a very productive lab.
