'Amazed' recording complete!
Friends/Fellow Believers,
Finally, we finished recording. Tetsuya, Tracy and I went to Climax Studio Sunday night for editing and an early morning mix down.
Editing in Studio 1
If only we could buy more time...that's what we kept saying because Tetsuya was running against the due date/time and we could only buy 5 hrs while running to finish 12 songs.
Mix down in Studio 2
We did get few more hours but still then it wasn't enough. We were 2 hrs late to sent the Master copy for CD Press. Nonetheless, we tried what we could within that very very short time. I am personally very thankful to each of my band members for their time, effort, talents; and most especially my thankfulness to God for providing all the needs. We recorded the songs using Korg D3200 at our church. Working on a tight schedule since all my members have their own teaching schedule; we recorded from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm (4 hrs daily) from 4th to 11th August.
Talents wise, they were just great. A week before recording I made a demo CD for each one of them, to listen and create what they could while explaining to them what I wanted in the song. We rehearsed 2-3 times before recording live. I wanted to make it a worship live album because this way we could express our passion in the way we worship and offer to God what we were playing. Although we would wish we had more time there's always a reason why sometimes things do not happen according to our plans. I have decided to just trust the Lord to bless those who will listen to the CD. Again...the CD is mainly produced to use it for evangelism. I want to give it to non-believers for free with a Bible and a Gospel tract. For sure I will encourage Christians to buy the CD to help this ministry but my desire is to really get this CD into the ears of non-believers. I have printed inside the CD cover what the song means instead of song lyrics; so that when non-believers read it they will understand what the song is all about.
Well, I will post the CD cover in my next post.
Thanks and God Bless.
