Over the course of the eight years that Metal XOR-D existed, the equipment and techniques used to record music changed many times. Then in November of 2007 it was decided to record a new ORC album starting January 1, 2008. Once the decision was made on what equipment to use on the album, it was time to redesign the Studio once more.
On December 1, 2007, Metal XOR-E opened for business. Over the course of the next month there were a few test songs recorded. And then on January 1, 2008, the ORC album began. This lasted for several weeks until the project was put on hold.
The new Studio has a computer at its center. The Korg synth is used as a MIDI trigger to play sounds inside the computer. All drums are also generated from within the computer. The only analog external sources at this point are the electric guitar and vocals.
Metal XOR-E is also where Paige is currently recording sessions for her next album (due out this fall).
Update
The albums released under the Metal XOR-E label were:
* Isthmus Parabolic Dish Festival 10th Anniversary [May 22, 2008]
* ORC Thru the Vent [September 23, 2008]
* Equinox Dulcet Ethical Travels on a Green Planet [December 8, 2009]
This version of the studio closed on Saturday, February 6, 2010. It was disassembled and shipped to its new location. It was reopened under a new name with a long roster of projects.
