Behind The Recording Of "Definitely Maybe' By Oasis
Музыка
The debut album by Oasis, Definitely Maybe was the perfect storm of indie rock coupled melodic pop sensibilities but crucially delivered with a swagger and personality that was infectious, helping kick start a whole movement in the UK that became known as Britpop.
The album was released in August 94 and went on to become a massive hit and set Oasis on a path to being the biggest band in the UK for some time but when you look back at its difficult birth, history could easily have been very different
This is the story of how it was recorded and the techniques and equipment used.

Owen Morris is a mad genius
Early Oasis really opened my eyes to lots of interesting mixing and production techniques in rock music. Great video and research, looking forward to future videos

Nor me especially oasis stuff I find really interesting
any home demo recorders out there, I found that duplicating and then compressing the master track is a simple but good trick

I'm a home recorder. I don't know many tricks. I try to record stuff as close to how I want it to sound as possible so I don't have to engage in mixing gymnastics. Not that I'm against mixing gymnastics. I've heard of your technique before. Yes, like davidrowe said...basically parallel compression.
Had very fond memories of Monnow Valley. Used to be a real nice place to write and record. Pity its gone now.

Owen is well known for using a TC finaliser for mastering, I happen to know Tim Wheeler from the band Ash who confirmed that this was also used on their 1977 album.

Cheers for the info! I heard he used it on ‘Definitively Maybe’. Just not sure how, maybe some multi-band compression?

wow never knew so much went into mixing it
Me and my old band grew up in Cornwall and a school friend of mine worked at Sawmills. We recorded there a couple of times for free in 1992/93 when there was nobody else using the place but it wasn’t as good as Definitely Maybe unfortunately 😂
Interesting to see use of cassette
Oasis is probably a band I could give more of a chance to. As of June 20024, I haven't honestly listened to them past "Wonderwall" and "Some Might Say".

Back in the mid to early 90s, @thesingingaccountant1 I was beginning my teenage years and feeling increasingly disenfranchised with what was in vogue at the moment. The year that Green Day came out with *Duko* and Kurt Cobain ended his own life, I was fast becoming a Carpenters fan. I was so opposite to what was considered cool that I did not even fit in with other outcasts.

Great video, there’s no such thing as a Marshall JCM200 by the way as quoted as Boneheads amp, the picture shows a JCM2000 but he can’t have used these as they weren’t released until 1997. He probably used an earlier 70’s JMP Marshall head and 4x12 or the Marshall Artiste combo, he then went for n to use JCM 800’s at Maine Road

Very good “wall of guitars” sound in your example. Did you do two tracks of each guitar amp sound, then hard pan, or some other way of doing it?

Thank you! I think I ended up doing 3 parts for 2 of the amps, 2 hard panned and one centre. Then the third amp just 2 hard panned.

Good question - I just worry about phasing
@mixingmasteringonline
Ай бұрын
They’re not different recordings of the same performance, they’re all different performances (same part) so phasing isn’t a problem.
The thing Oasis and their producers and record Company had to learn. Is that Oasis just played at max volume all the time. Very little dynamic. Thats why the max compression worked in the studio as Well. That was how They played live…
