After the events of this weekend, I don't know if a rock track feels right, but it's what I had partly finished.
I had a thought of heavily-reverbed guitar with slow drums (like "Byron"), so recorded some chordal patterns with the Res-O-Glas (three tracks, though one I ended up not using), another lead line with the Res-O, and another chordal section with the baglama-tuned Heit DeLuxe. All of them straight into the board, but then with over-driven Auto-Filter (high-pass) and Cabinet to give them some differentiation. Then I tracked Epi P-J bass, and arranged it. As a last thing, I threw in some percussion. The drums are Drum Rack (a 32-pad rock kit) through Drum Buss and Beat Repeat for some variety. Percussion went through Drum Buss also (as well as ring modulation), and both got a bit of M4L Humanizer.
Sends: two convolution reverbs--one studio space, and one of the Dan Harpole cistern. There's also a channel of Echo in there. Auto-pan on the percussion, but everything else is static. Then there's full-chain master on the 2-buss.
Title from the medical applications of technetium. (Almost went with "technetium cow," but that seemed sillier than the feeling of the track.)
