Alright, so I haven't had much time in recent weeks to update this blog, but I thought I would throw up a quick status update for those who care.

I wrapped up tracking Untruth's EP in late June and then promptly moved onto recording Divine Ascension's debut album. This one has been rather intensive. It's now at the very end of July and I've barely had a day to spare. There is still a fair way to go with this record and we're already a month through. It's proving to be quite the mammoth undertaking, and I'm quite pleased because we are taking the time it needs to shine. This will be one quality CD when all is done and dusted.

In other news I will be continuing guitar tracking with Eye of the Enemy around the middle of August. This is one record where no expense is being spared and we are pushing it all to the limits. More on this as it develops, but so far the drums are almost tracked and it's obvious even this early on that it's going to sound massive.

To wrap it all up, in order to help me track and mix all these releases I've bought some new additions to the project studio. Please welcome the Event Opals:



These are some monstrous monitors. I've been spending the better part of the last week acclimating and I'm hearing details I've never heard before in records I've listened to for years. An investment for the future, as they say.

I've also revamped the computer system here in order to run higher track counts, more FX and generally throw everything but the kitchen sink at a mix without the PC flinching.

So all in all, things are looking very good and very very busy. More updates will follow as these records start seeing release.

Have a good one,
Ermin.
