January
After a break for the end of year celebrations, the course of the project resumes with in particular the continuation of the improvement of the comfort and the acoustics of the studio and the purchase of a new pair of monitors in addition to the existing ones, a mixing console, a guitar amp, cables, and so on…
December
Margot and Bruno re-listen to all the voice tracks in order to clean them of small parasitic noises, sibilances and other pops.
November
Margot and Bruno re-listen to all the acoustic guitar tracks in order to clean them up. At the same time, Bruno prepares the studio for mixing: analysis and treatment of acoustics, manufacture of custom-made sound absorbing panels, bass traps, and so on… As part of our partnership, Cuir & Sellerie made us superb pads in ultra-high density foam dressed in black leatherette and personalised them with an embroidery of Bruno Arts' African mask.
