    I Can't Give Up

    Comments on ..... 1) The Mix (obviously - Vox too hot? Any audio "stingers"?) 2) The Arrangement (is that synth over the top?) 3) The Song Wrote it a few years ago and only just recently tried to put it down on tape. Thanks .... "I Can't Give Up" http://www.nowhereradio.com/bpoco/singles BPOCO

    Country or Folk?

    At the last minute I've decided to enter a song into the John Lennon Song Writing Contest. So this one is definitely demo material. I'm not looking for any mix feedback (yes, I know this is the mixing clinic, but experience indicates that I won't get good feedback on the Song Writing board)...

    SONAR2 and TB Santa Cruz and XP

    Is anyone successfully using a Santa Cruz soundcard with XP and SONAR2? I'm looking to upgrade to SONAR2 (from PA 9.0). But, this will require a new PC which will likely not support my ISA-based sound card (TurtleBeach Pinnacle). As a result, I need a new PCI-based soundcard - but I want an...

    Newbie - Quiet Condenser ??

    I'm a newbie to microphones for home recording. As you can probably guess, I have a limited budget. Anyway, I recently bought a Rode NT1 (not NT1A). It seems to get pretty much bashed on this board, but compared to what I've been using (e.g. SM58), the NT1 is a HUGE improvement...

    Lyric advice .....

    I've tried to search for an answer to this question in this forum, but haven't come across anything that pertains. If I post lyrics on this BBS - looking for help to an elusive phrase or couplet - AND someone posts the perfect line(s) and I use them, does that give them co-writer "rights"...

    Acoustic Critique Wanted

    I'm micing my acoustic for the first time (historically I've just recorded direct). This is just a 30-second snippet and I'm looking for feedback on the sound (no pun intended) before I go for the whole song. This is the chorus progression. A Travis picking piece. Thanks - BPOCO See...

    What Will Be Will Be ....

    My 2nd post. I dusted this one off. I can't really categorize this song. Pop? Other? Pop most likely. I can't stay away from that damn Vibraslap. I've listened to this so many times I don't know which way is up. The synth pad is really making it hard to figure out the EQ. Give it a...

    Virgin Post

    Just a fun pop tune to test the waters. I think I hear some MP3 artifacts - but, you should get the idea. I love brutal honesty. http://www.nowhereradio.com/bpoco/singles

    Audigy 2 and SONAR

    Audigy 2 and SONAR Anyone have any experience with these two together? If so, what's your review? What's your computer configuration (RAM, OS, Computer brand, etc.)? I'm in the process of choosing a new soundcard (I've already purchased SONAR 2.1). I'm currently using a Turtle Beach...

    Mastering Mystery

    I've been home recording for about 8 years now - but, pretty much in isolation (no pun intended). Everything I know, I've picked up through trial and error. I've only recently started reading BBS for views and advice. I have yet to create a song having that "mastered" sound you hear on...

    Pinnacle replacement

    Several years ago I invested in the Turtlebeach Pinnacle sound card. For the price, it offered the best analog sound quality accompanied by a built in synth (very respectable). I've been using it in conjunction with Cakewalk Pro Audio (9.0 currently). It's been great!!! I particularly like...

    Phantom Power - 48V's critical?

    I measured the voltage being applied to my Rode NT-1 from my Mackie mixer. It was reading 41V. I was expecting 48V. What's the acceptable tolerance for phantom power? The NT-1 seems to be performing acceptably, however, I am a newbie and don't have much real-life experience to judge...
