Ask her what she prefers - this IS a good option. and allways be sincere with the results, better takes will for sure appear when you two can comunicate. bye n.sekt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Lankester" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 3:48 AM Subject: [dnb-prod] Studio sessions: Recording Vocals > Hey all... > > The past couple of weeks have been completely mental for me and apart from > 100 random things completely changing my life I've been lucky enough to be > offered some free studio time in a Soho studio...
