I record onto a TASCAM DP24SD. In fact, other than the local music of that period - Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, The Byrds, etc. the "imported" music that moved me came from The Yardbirds, Moody Blues, Donovan, Cream and, of course, The Beatles.

It's very simple. It would be too wearisome for my eyes.

Hello. Thank you for your well-meant criticism. Here’s the third and last mix of this particular song. I personally like what I hear; I could, of course go on and on, adding background voices, electric guitar, etc. but when I consider the total futility of trying to make my tunes sound as if...

Yes. I have effectuated your suggestions. It's sounds better, I agree. Now all I have to do is record a better vocal rendition, but that will have to wait as I had a small vocal accident a few days ago while working on a new song without being adequately warmed up. When I have completed a new...

Hello! Here's a new mix I did this afternoon, putting your suggestions to the test. It's a once-in-a-lifetime mix as I use no automation. I like the new song personally and I will do some vocal work to make it even better. Maybe even a bit of timing work with regard to the strings, etc. What do...

Mr. Grumpy Thank you so much for the generous sharing of your intelligence, professional understanding, and time. As you suggested, I have begun the reworking of the song by listening differently to it. Already, I like it better without the drums and percussion. I cut out the last verse and...

Bless you, Grumpy Mod. I appreciate your observations. Very finely tuned. I will strip the song down and streamline it and see what that gives. I admit to have a tendency to overdo some aspects of production and to add percussion elements to make the songs sound more "pop" ( I suppose). Of...

Hi everybody! This a song I started writing 50 (!) years ago. I would to have your ideas as to how to improve my home production. I don't use any DAW tools. Thank you very much for all your thoughts. Cheers, William https://mx3.ch/t/1x2V

I'll give it a try, Jimistone. Thank you heartily.

Thank you for your extreme generosity, sir. After all these years of saying *no" to DAW and hoping that I could obtain the desired results from my TASCAM, I hesitate now to start all over with computer technology tools. Especially seeing that I am from the old school of going into a studio and...

Yeah, I like what you've done, Talisman. It is, in fact, the kind of warm and present sound I'm really looking for, for all of my acoustic song work. I hope I can find how to get there with the equipment I possess.

Thank you so much. I understand the difference. I'm always a bit shy about reverb settings and never even sure of what KIND of reverb I should add, i.e. plate, hall, etc. I work exclusively with a TASCAM DP24SD, no DAW, so certain sound modifications are a bit less accessible. The compression...

Dear friends, This time I’m sending a very basic recording for your professional observations - just acoustic guitar and voice. What I would like to know is HOW to make this sound “radio listenable”, like a simple yet professional production. Any and all ideas will be very much appreciated...

Electro-acoustic guitar + distortion pedal = too much extra noise >> what to do? Dear friends, In my recording work I like to noise-up some of my songs with electric guitar sounds but I possess only one guitar - a Martin OMX series electro-acoustic. I love it. The problem may well be the...

Hello everybody, I record with a TASCAM DP-24SD. I play a Martin electro-acoustic guitar and I LOVE to put some distortion in certain parts of my recordings. I use, for example, the ZOOM Multi-Stomp, and others. Okay, they're noisy, that's normal, but... there is a sort of "ground noise" that...
