He thought I suggested taking the tone thread elsewhere when, really, it was JDOD.
I think a misunderstanding spun from there?

BTW .... aren't you a racer?Whatever...
I gotta go gig but I'll send you some of wifey's stuff ..... I think you'll find it interestingFormer racer. Chose having kids and raising them over my need for speed. There was never gonna be any money in the racing I was doing - open wheel single seaters on road courses - and I was too old for Formula 1 or Indy and too young and poor to have that as a hobby.
Steen said where my comment came from. I guess I assumed you saw my edit. My bad. I don't know how much I will contribute here or elsewhere. I am on an extended sabbatical from playing so no output at the moment.
Here's my most recent to keep the ball rolling in the Tone Thread.
I've tried to remove some fizz from the open chord guitar as suggested by Greg.
No solo or singer yet though I do have the lyrics (see below).
How's the tone & guitar balance chaps?
A game for one player
Here's one I've been working on. I just brought the levels to the approximate appropriate volumes. I haven't done a lot with any processing or EQ. The only thing I've done to the drums is EQ the bass drum. Also I hi-passed the guitars and vocals.
The rhythm guitar panned to the left is my 66 strat, neck pickup, into the Peavey Bravo amp clean Channel
The accent rhythm guitar panned to the right, is my clown burst Les Paul copy, middle position, going into the Bravo's clean Channel
The lead guitar that intros the song and plays throughout the first ride is my clown burst, neck pickup, going into the Peavey Bravo gain channel
On the second ride, the thinner sounding guitar is my 66 Strat into the Bravo's gain channel in the middle pick up position. I realize it sounds thin but I set it more for playing the guitar harmonies than I did for a stand alone tone....I need to adjust that.
I'm playing all the instruments on this one. The drums aren't perfect but I'm happier with these drums and any others I've done so far.
This playing all the drums at at the same time stuff is a bitch!
lol

sounds good and rocking to me.Here's my most recent to keep the ball rolling in the Tone Thread.

it sounds like fun....I'm not really advanced enough on the drums though man. I realize that "southbound" sounds pretty good....but I LITERALLY had to play it almost all day long, one take after another after another, to get all the way through it on a keeper.Jimi, you should participate with us in the monthly drum challenge at a&a, the thread is in the collaboration section. Each month we pick a song with no drums and write and record parts for it then we all post on the same day as to not influence each others ideas or playing. Its pretty fun, we've been doing it for over a year now and cover a few different styles. Only Cyrokk, Dross and myself participate, it'd be cool to have another on board. This month we are doing a Jaimee Harris song, its due next Saturday.
This sounds good man, everything sounds good to me. Some things mix wise I think could be better but all the base tones are there and the playing is good too. I wish I could do stuff like this on guitar, I just never learned. It really does sound like a live recording!

Just wondering, how long is Greg banned this time, I never read/heard how long it was for???
Heya Miner, hope things are going well for you!
What I read was that it was a permanent ban. From the way the mods were talking, they did Greg in for good this time. Total fucking bullshit, if you ask me.
nah .... they didn't have a real reason ..... I started a thread about it and they stumbled all over themselves trying to come up with a reason. It was kind of a "it depends on what 'is' is" explanation.Wow man, did any of the mods say why he was banned, or what his offense was??? I'm pretty shocked to be honest, I know he rubbed a lot of folks the wrong way here at times, but there's no denying his contributions not only to the tone thread, but the forum in general...
Thanks for asking about me, I'm ok Tad, been feeling like shit the last while, & battling depression tooth/nail, but I'm alive, I guess it can always be worse....
