Jon Benjamin Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I'm just curious, what is U/D/T production?The audio production on the trilogy albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrduckygoosy Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Yeah they weren't too bad. The only problem is it doesn't sound really natural. Yep, because it's not. I'm pretty sure they're using a harmonizer since American Idiot, which is a shame because they're able to make awesome true backing vocals.

JOE THE X-KID Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Glad to hear someone else voice that thought... I wasn't sure if it's all in my head. Or we just kind of have that "rawr" thing in our heads. I thought that too haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoopy Doo Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Surely you'd just wish it was good rather than not want to like it? Well, not all of it sucks. I like the first two sections alright, but when the reprise and final section come in, it just falls apart, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Well, not all of it sucks. I like the first two sections alright, but when the reprise and final section come in, it just falls apart, IMO. The reprise is actually my favourite part of the whole thing tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not hearing an harmonizer at all and I use harmonizer in my spot but I could be wrong I think he doing the harmonies and using the filters on all vocals tracks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwise Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The biggest difference to me is on these demos they utilize Mike's backing vocals and the second guitar WAY more. And I fucking love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they didn't mix them to make them blend in. I love the sound of that too, but I wouldn't have minded the crash cymbals getting taken down a bit.

Liam Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Rang my local record store and they've said they're only getting in 2 copies of the CD and 5 copies of the vinyl but unfortunately no cassette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastard of 1967 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yeah, you're probably right. It is best for them to do what they do naturally. But I'm pretty sure they'd have a better time in the recording process if they recorded live for the most part. They seem to have so much chemistry playing together Yeah they weren't too bad. The only problem is it doesn't sound really natural. But the trilogy isn't the first time Billie's done the backing vocals himself. I'm pretty sure in "Extraordinary Girl" he's harmonising with himself. I'm just curious, what is U/D/T production? Uno/Dos/Tre, and the production techinques they (mis)used in creating it. The biggest difference to me is on these demos they utilize Mike's backing vocals and the second guitar WAY more. And I fucking love it. If I could like that one 1,000 times I would. Over time I've definitely grown to like Mike's vocals as a healthy part of the mix...it's part of what makes them sound so fucking great on stage. Billie harmonizing with himself and himself alone on the records is just, well, meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green day is Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Billie harmonizing with himself and himself alone on the records is just, well, meh. People keep saying this as if Mike doesn't have a single backing vocal on all of the trilogy. He's there a bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike has more "presence" on the demos - certainly enough to notice (in a good way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green day is Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Mike has more "presence" on the demos - certainly enough to notice (in a good way). I was just thinking about using some mixing magic to combine some of the demos and studio versions. Not sure if it'd be too hard, I'll probs give it a go later. Hope they at least used a metronome.

They get off at times but Trè gets them back by the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
