One of Yamaha’s most well-known studio products gets a makeover for the 21st Century.

Using Equalisation

Paul White and Mike Senior explain how to get the best practical results from equalisation by understanding the true frequency ranges of most instruments and voices.
An understanding of the variety of different equalisation tools at your disposal can help in choosing the most suitable type of processing for any situation. However, using equalisation is about much more than just selectin g the correct unit and this time, we will be looking at how best to employ equalisation techniques in music production.
The first challenge when equalising musical sounds is in deciding which area of the frequency spectrum corresponds to which element of a sound’s timbre. If you’re wanting to emphasise the click of a bass drum, where should you boost? Alternatively, if your guitar sounds boxy, where can you cut most effectively?

BLEEDING THROUGH - “The Truth” CD 2006

FINAL RATE: 7.75 / 10

Label: Trustkill Records
Release Date: 2006-01-10
Format: Full Length CD
Style: Metalcore

My first bit of contact with Bleeding Through came on 10th February 2005 when I went to see them at The Underworld. Having never really listened to them before, I really didn’t know what to expect… and, thankfully, I was impressed. I would like to say that from that moment on I became an avid Bleeding Through fan, but I didn’t. For one reason or another they got pushed to one side while I pursued other bands. Until now…

URBAN TALES - “Diary Of A No” CD 2007

FINAL RATE: 6.5 / 10

Label: Burning Star Records
Release Date: 2007
Format: Full Length CD
Style: Heavy Gothic Metal

Urban Tales is a portuguese Gothic Rock/Metal band. Their debut album, “Diary Of A No”, has very good quality overall, with a clear production and the musicians deliver their sound with professional technicism.

SARNATH - “Shadowland” CD 2006

FINAL RATE: 7.5 / 10

Label: Self Released
Release Date: 2006
Format: Best Of/Compilation
Style: Black Metal

Sarnath were a Swiss two-man band playing a good old school Black Metal… They’ve split-up in the beginning of 2007, due to uncertain circumstances, but before that happen they’ve recorded some new songs which were supposed to be included in their first full-length album to be released in the middle of 2007. Sarnath history was written with different words and they decided not to release their first album but to release the already recorded new songs and join them with a some kind best of songs of their two demos released in 2003. Then was born “Shadowland” a somehow best of/unreleased songs EP with thirteen songs, five are completely new and eight are remastered versions of their previous demos.

NAGLFAR - “Harvest” CD 2007

FINAL RATE: 6.25 / 10

Label: Century Media
Release Date: 2007-02-23
Format: Full Length CD
Style: Melodic Black Metal

Sweden’s Naglfar (the name of the death ship in Norse mythology) has just released its fifth full-length CD, “Harvest”. Former bassist Kristoffer Olivius has replaced Jens Ryden on vocals, and Peter Morgan Lie has taken over bass duties from Olivius. Otherwise, what’s new with Naglfar?
Well, nothing. Nothing at all. And that’s really the problem here.
