Back in the Mixmaster

billroperToday, Gretchen and I got a chance to get into the studio and mix in the tracks that we got from Dave, Tom, Steve, and Dorotha at Torcon. We added in a few more backing vocals from the two of us, then mixed about half the CD down, and headed out for dinner with a copy of the CD to play in the van. (If we can hear everything in the van with the windows open, then the mix has a *chance* of working.) We accumulated a new set of mix notes and headed back to the studio for another round of remixing.
I think we're close to done now. We still have to record the final tracks for "Brain Sludge", but that *should* be fairly straightforward. (Famous last words.)
Under normal circumstances, I'd be sure there's plenty of time to get this done for OVFF, but given the adventures with getting "Sushi and High Tea" back from the duplicator, I'm running paranoid. Keep your fingers crossed.
Todd Hamilton's promised me a cover this weekend. Gretchen and I are looking forward to seeing it. Then I get to lay out the insert. I'll probably include lyrics, if I can get them all to fit. I wonder if 6 point is actually big enough to read...

Speaking strictly as a selfish consumer, I always feel just a little bit gypped when any CD I buy doesn't include song lyrics and some notes on the songs (especially so when I'm likely to want to learn some of the songs myself). More pages in the insert makes a happier consumer (at least if the pages aren't just filler); a happier consumer is a more active repeat customer.
