    Maiden England '88 + History Part 3 coming March 25th!

    Not always the case. Queen released 5 live videos in 5 years in the 80s. They always felt that the live show was the essence of what the band was about. You could easily say the same about Maiden. If they're that popular when it comes to ticket sales then surely it's not a financial risk to...

    At least one a year... Played a few small ones too. You?

    Maiden England '88 + History Part 3 coming March 25th!

    I guess, in my opinion, that it depends. Some outdoor gigs are spoilt for the reason you said but they can still sound great. There's something about being outdoors that adds to the vibe. If the weather is good, the sound is good etc, then I'd go with that. I saw them at Twickenham in 08 and it...

    Maiden England '88 + History Part 3 coming March 25th!

    I've gotta be honest - and this may be nostalgia, as it was hearing this that got me into Maiden - but I think Donington 88 is incredible. He sounds in better nick there than he did at the end of the year, they'd had a bit of time off on the run-in to Donington. Plus, the crowd sounds...

    They recorded the SIASL vid at Sheffield City Hall, The Clairvoyant at Donington and TETMD at the LA Forum. Surely there would have been extra footage from these promo shoots? There's loads of YouTube footage of interviews and promo stuff from that era, why not collate it into one huge...

    Raising Hell vs. Live After Death

    Come on kids, now's the time to tell me... Best line ever - "Cunt was standing behind me sitting down! Woowoowoowoowoo!". I'm done.

    Raising Hell vs. Live After Death

    I did read the whole thread. Are you saying that every other comment against LAD was a joke as well? Some of those responses about LAD and RH seemed pretty genuine to me. I was responding to those. Now I'm the f****** c*** all of a sudden...

    Was the entire drumkit panned right or just elements of it? Someone else said the bass drum sounded way right but how can this be if they're all on one track? I never bothered really listening to the Soundcloud upload as I've never had a noticable issue before. At home during playback, if the...

    Somewhere Back In Time was the greatest gig ever. Best day of my life, well, that and my boy being born! :-) Powerslave all the ay for me, though I love all the 80s stuff. Only recently got into AMOLAD. I like the stuff since BNW but I'll always be a 1980-88 man! :-) 150% certain on the...

    Raising Hell vs. Live After Death

    For my part, I can't believe this is open to debate! :-) Live After Death is the absolute essence of Iron Maiden. Best tour, encompassing the best album, groundbreaking and innovative in every way. Full of REAL MAGIC, not illusions, setting the benchmark for that entire era. Pure theatre with...

    Thanks man. I must just reiterate that I changed nothing with regards to drum and bass panning. I've always been aware as to their required positioning in mixes and listening to the individual tracks again - which are nothing more than low quality MP3, by the way, - there is little that can be...

    Hey. Changed a couple of things here and there but the original master tracks are still the same. I hadn't used any extra compression on them. I'd used the db Audioware Sidechain Compressor set to 'light comp' in the Master which, along with MP3 conversion probably did it no favours. Listening...

    Hey. Really appreciate the feedback. After listening in headphones to the Soundcloud upload, I can hear what you are saying. I'm gonna go back and re-do the master and try to find somewhere that hosts it better. I can, however, confirm that the original Bass and Drum tracks are on a single track...

    Ha. No worries. As you'll see yourself, a good 60% of it was the original recordings anyway. Have fun with them. :-)

    Hmmmm. I am a little curious. I use a USA strat through a Fender Deluxe and a Line6 Flextone, mic'd with a Roland DR-80c and an SM-57, to a M-Audio interface, running Cubase 3, with plenty of good plug-ins, with M-Audio monitors. I've gotta be honest, it sounded great through the final master I...

    Hey, just for the purpose of constructive criticism, what wasn't so great about the sound? After already converting to MP3 in Cubase, Soundcloud then compress the hell out of it further, but the levels and overall sound was pretty spot on in my studio. Just curious really. Thanks for the Adrian...
