About This Track
This is a short little improvised theme Sigurdór wrote for (or was inspired by) Ian Shepherd and his Dynamic Range Day 2011 project and challenge (@DynamicRangeDay and #DRD11 on Twitter)
The bass line is played on his fretted Lakland 5 string as are the harmonized lead lines. The harmonics are played on his fretless Zon Sonus 4 str. bass.
No loops were used. Few punch-ins and clean ups.
All bass parts were recorded directly to Pro Tools 9 through a Demeter VTDB-2b Tube Direct (boost ON). Fresh set of Lo-Riders strings from DR on the Lakland bass. The Zon bass also has DR strings, probably Hi-Beams, not as fresh though :)
Plugins used on all tracks when mixing:
Reel Tape Saturation (from Avid)
Digi EQ (mostly cuts, HPF, LPF, minor HF boost on the harmonics)
SPL TwinTube
Massey’s Tape-Head
VintageWarmer & oldTimer from PSP
The Glue (buss compressor) from Cytomic.
Plugins used for mastering:
MEqualizerLinearPhase, MStereoProcessor, MMultiBandDynamics, MDynamicsLimiter from: Melda Producions www.meldaproduction.com/mmasteringbundle/
… oh and the dynamic range:
Peak value: -2.38 dB -2.10 dB
Avg RMS: -14.19 dB -14.01 dB
DR channel: 9.73 dB 9.63 dB

Official DR value: DR10
