OK. This is what I have so far. Please tell me if it is any good or what I should change. Should I just scrap it all together? Walking for a million years Searching for you face Never seen the likes of you When you put me in my place Crawling through the years Pawning off my hate I think...

Hey guys. It's been a while since I've posted a song so I thought I'd put something out there. And, since I created the Gmail host, I decided to be the first to use it. There is a description of the song in the e-mail. The song is called Decay In Space and will be labeled "STAT1STICK". If...

I have created a Gmail account specifically for homerecording.com! If you do not have your own web site and would like to let others hear your music, all you have to do is log in to the e-mail address, compose an email, attach your file, write a little description, and send it to the account...

I'm having a bit of a problem with my drums. When I record them all at once onto one track, I can never get the EQ to favor any part of the track. If I want to boost the mids in the snare, the cymbals and hi hat come out really sharp and clangy. If I want to boost the low end of the bass...

Just wondering if you guys had any suggestions for mastering using CEP. I'm still a "n00b" when it comes to that area of recording so I'm willing to take any advice given. Are there specific effects/compressors/limiters that should be applied to certain tracks (Drums, Vox, Guitars, Synths...

When I run Absynth 3 and Pro 25 with my controller, I have a short lag that is really bugging me. It makes it really hard to play when my fingering doesn't match what I'm hearing. Is there a way to fix this problem or is unfixable? I imagine there would be no lag if I was running through USB...

Do any of you know of any place that I can download some (free) User presets? They don't have to be extravagant or anything... Just something I can use to build my sound library. I've searched Google and all that I get are things that I have to pay for. I figure that since I've paid so much...

I have been using CEP 2.0 for about 3 years now and I have developed a certain 'ritual' of sorts. After I have recorded a track, I have a set list of effects that I add to them. The list differs depending on the type of recording it is but it's still pretty much the same. The following is a...

Hey guys! I just finished a demo for a song I'm recording called Cherish. The song has no vocals in it but everything else is there. I'm hoping to get some feedback as to how the song was recorded and what should be changed before I make the final mixdown. Here's the link...

I was just wondering if there is a web site where you can download some loops of drums, synths and stuff like that... If there is such a place, please let me know. Thanks.

Hello everyone, I'm having a bit of a problem. I want to buy a new head/half stack but I don't know which one to buy. I'm in the price range of $1,200 - $2,000. I have a few in mind but I've only played one of them. Here are my options: Marshall Mode Four (played it) Marshall TSL100 Mesa...

Hello all, I bought an Oktava MK-319 at a pawn shop in March and I was wondering if there is a way to tell if it is a remake or the real deal. Any help would be much appreciated. Also, what is the difference between the real thing and the remake (performance wise)?

I have created some tones that use some of the Triton waveforms. They are mostly techno-ish and they'd come in handy for some industrial style music. They sound pretty good if you ask me. I'm willing to share these tones. If you are interested, I'll post them on my web site for you to...

I record in the basement of a 100+ year old house. I also live with three other people. They tend to walk, run, jump, scream, shout (just about everything you can think of) above me. I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions of how to make it so all of that stuff doesn't pick up so...

Hey guys and gals. I've been having problems with EQing my mixes. I can't seem to get it right. I can't find a middle ground when it comes to lows, mids and highs. They're either too loud or too quiet. I was just wondering if anyone has any tips for me to see if I can solve my problem...
