Dan, Tony, and others: For a while now I’ve wanted to post a cheat-sheet for various terms we use here on WBM —track; track-take; take; run-though; rehearsal, demo; overdub; etc. etc., especially as our use of these terms here may differ from their more colloquial meaning or understanding. This would provide more context for visitors to an archive such as this who, after all, are hearing lots of different “beasts” from a big menagerie of process components and stages. In short, it might help to understand the somewhat different goal or function of each beast in the oft-mentioned iterative process of getting from demo to final. [EDIT: In fact, if I get it right, it probably belongs as part of the site FAQ] This present multi-clip post is a good case where an explicit clarification of concepts and terms might be illuminating; why, for example, Walter isn’t soloing on some clip…or why there’s no vocal on what I’ve identified as a “track-take”, and so on. But whenever I try to begin my little WBM glossary, my Infographic nature gets me dizzy, with visions of hierarchical branching trees and such… but in any case it would be a bigger job than I have the gas for just now. Still, I did want to flag my intention here — you get points for intentions, right? — and maybe in the meantime the more inductively-inclined among you — or those familiar with old-school recording endeavors — can make better gestalt sense of what we’ve presented here, and elsewhere on the site. Carry on….
