Random, Spontaneous Thoughts about UM (Part 1)

I haven’t been on a computer to listen today, I can check tomorrow. Do they sound the same to you?

Probably the level that the board operator is sending to that channel could be lower depending on how it’s routed

they don’t sound the same to me, but that’s why i would love to hear from folks with more experience. i feel like bass is more left and acoustic guitar is more right. mando is spread across both sides? :man_shrugging:

Probably a true stereo feed then

If you’re doing a copy just for yourself, mix it however you want. Play with the levels and panning to get it how you like the sound. Take advantage of the solo option on each track to listen to segments and see how they sound separate then together.

Here are a few of my SBD/Aud recordings that are SBD heavy because SBD’s are amazing quality. Closer to 85/15in favor of SBD (mainly because Stoopid’s FOH engineer is amazing and a 3 time grammy award winning engineer)

This one is a closer balance of SBD/Aud, closer to 60/40 in favor of SBD

What was the last instance of Rocker 2 being London sesh’d? How far past 2014 did they still milk that?

Literally the most recent version this year

God that’s sad. Didn’t realize that. Would have guessed 2018

It’s such a shame. Rocker 2 was such a powerhouse live song. And I actually love the TLS studio version, it’s great. But it ruined the song live

I get legit pissed off when they TLS Rocker 2. What a waste of a great type 1 vehicle

Yeah, and they used to type II that quite often back in 2008-2011, maybe even into 2012?

The 10/29/2014 Rocker II is decent plus it has a real nice -> Walletsworth

I’m out of the loop here. What happened with Rocker 2? I didn’t get into UM until after TLS came out. What about that changed it?

FWIW, I love Rocker 2, but I’m not sure I’ve heard any of the earlier versions.

It used to feature actual improv but they just lean on that same riff from the London Session now.

Scamp '13 Rocker 2 is the GOAT. Flawless non-TLS bounceback with a third section that Jake ramps up to a different riff and BB picks right up on it
