I've finished recording bass parts for my band's debut album. I was fortunate to be able to use 2 borrowed Alembics, thanks to the kindness of my 2 friends. I used an Essence 5 and, on one song, an Epic 4. The sound of both of them got RAVE reviews from the sound engineer and the studio owner! BTW - it's one of the best and most renowned studios in Poland...

Here are some pics:

And me, with both Alembics and my Malinek fretless :-)

Oh yes, the album will feature some nice bass sounds (shame about the playing though, lol)!

Thanks!

And well, it won't me a debut album for me (or for any of the band members for that matter) but a debut album for this particular band - and the most meticulously prepared album I've ever recorded.

Oh, and I wouldn't have been myself if I hadn't pictured the 2 beauties ;-)

Studio: The Epic
Magic Artefacts
Epic Win
Liquid
The Conehead
Head to Head
The Essence of Alembic 1
The Essence of Alembic 2
The Hidden Flame

And yes - they do sound at least as beautiful as they look!

Congratulations Jarek. I am sure it was your playing that got the rave reviews also. I hope that everything goes well for you from now on.

Carl
