drumcat Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 (edited) Hello all, I'm taking a little extra time in mastering the APDs this year. While everyone is waiting, I think you'll be excited with the outcome. They'll be up Wednesday for sure, tomorrow if I can swing it. As a teaser, here's a 30 sec clip of the Blue Stars. I tried to pick an exposed clip so you can make a solid decision. I'm pretty happy with the results given the environment. You'll hear a decay in this clip; I made sure one was in there. I think the TBI guys did an exceptional job this year, so props to those guys. And yes, they are more "Stage Right" when you hear that in stereo. :) http://www.dci.org/media/blue_stars_clip_qf.mp3 Also, don't forget we posted the Michigan City files & bundle. http://www.dci.org/media/bdbclip.mp3 I'll drop a line here when they are posted for sale. Thanks everyone for supporting the corps through these purchases! Edited August 18, 2010 by drumcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crfrey71 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Will there be a Star Alumni APD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumcat Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Will there be a Star Alumni APD? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but no, I do not believe so. As they say, never say never, but my understanding is this won't be available for licensing issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skywhopper Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Thanks, drumcat! I'm happy to wait for a superior product. Looking forward to downloading quite a few this year. Great music from a lot of corps! I'm thrilled with the Blue Stars sample! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps-mudgeon Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Thanks for all the work you do to make these recordings as good as they can be. In a somewhat tangential vein, that's a pretty impressive 16th note lick by the tubas in your demo clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy in AK Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Question... I'm a bit out of the loop so forgive my ignorance. You are talking about the APDs available on the FanNetwork for download, correct? These will be re-mastered finals performances (or quarterfinals)? I've been waiting for an entire year for the 2009 finals performances to be available for download. The last time I sent a message to DCI, they said the 2009 finals performances would be available around finals week this year but I'm still not seeing those. Do you know when/if those will be available soon? Thanks. The teaser sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
