That is 100% what I was going for. "Baby's On Fire."

That's what I was thinking of when I heard it! BTW, does that dramatization accurately reflect the gear used on the recording? It appears the vocal mic might be a TOMB ribbon, no? And is that an Alice mic that is used on a bunch of other stuff?

Nice work i.r.! Matthew Sweet & Andy Partridge ain't got shit on you.

The bad cable bit cracked me up, and now I understand that fruit shaker and tambourine are not rendundant when used on the same song.

I actually sung through an MXL V67G...the TOMB ribbon was for show. The drums are mic'ed accurately M201 and 57 on snare, PR40 on kick, Studio Projects C1 on toms), and I did use the Alice for acoustic and for mic'ing the Magnasync amp during the solo. But all the hand percussion was actually through a Beyer M160. I just didn't feel like getting out the Beyer for the video.

The stereo Alice wasn't used on the backup singing (which is really just me

)--that was the V67G again--but it WAS used as a drum overhead, which is where I always use it.

Bass cab mic was AKG D202, rhythm guitar mic was M160...

Oh and that flanger on the vocals is Audio Damage Liquid!

I totally want one of those Magnasync amps now. And it's nice and small which is good 'cause I'm outa room as it is!

Hey do you have a version of this song for download that isn't crappy YouTube quality?

I'll try and render it later for ya. I posted a version without hand percussion a few weeks ago in the ADT thread but let me get you a full version. This is a rough mix either way...

And Tony, I've got a Fuzz Face in front of that Magnasync, so basically that solo is both of them distorted. I have to admit, I think it's a magic combination...

OK, here's a 192kbps mp3. This is a rough mix! There is no reverb or anything.

Thanks again for everybody's interest!

BTW, that acoustic guitar is tracked through the Symetrix 501, my new favorite guitar comp.
