Alrighty, time for another album. So let's get to it. I met up with Tommy around noon at the secret location (from here on to be called SL). We spent a couple of hours setting things up. For those of you who are interested: I'm using two M3's, one with 76 keys and the other one triggered by an DX7. On top of that I have my SV-1 and a D-20 for Tony, actually I'm bringing him a Fantom XR for tomorrow, so he can get some cool sounds. Other than that we have a bunch of PA equipment and Pasi brought his computer him and Elias can do some demo-recordings and prepare for the studio sessions. Today we just put up the gear, listened to some of Tonys demos and played through Alone in Heaven and Cinderblox....and decided that the guys would pick up two more speakers for the PA system from our rehersal place. Tomorrow we'll start working on the first songs, let's
see what happends.

VastaaPoistahi henkka.. :) has the new album a name already? *-* asfdsgs who brought the vodka.. what happen with marko? and the alone in heaven video? hahaha i dont want to pressure ;) enjoy the rehersal :)
VastaaPoistaActually the Alone in Heaven video should be out on youtube in the near future...Marko is at school as far as I know ;-)
PoistaThanks for setting a lot of minds at rest with that school comment. :)
PoistaJust curios. What made you choose to trigger one of the M3s with a DX7 as apposed to the standard 61 key with organ keys? I love what you guys do. Keep up the good work. Kiitos.
VastaaPoistaI just grabbed the controller that was closest to the door...hence the DX7...
PoistaLooking forward to hear some crazy new music, with Sonata Arctica's signature.
VastaaPoistaHenKka, are you going to use a Hammond again?, because it rocks. Hoping also to hear some banjos and other non-electric instruments.
Best wishes with this new project of yours. Cheers,
William.
Of course I will use the Hammond organ...actually I broke it during the Stones Grow Her Name sessions so if the guys at Studio57 have fixed it, I'll use it again...
PoistaYes, yes, I remember that from the SGHN "Making of" videos. But broken and everything, you make it sound loud and clear.
PoistaHenrik would be really great to see pictures of your keyboard set. can you take pictures of your keyboards and add here?
VastaaPoistaps.how many keytar do you have? whether it would be possible to get them with a picture?
