Hi, I'm trying to do a super simple 2 track song, vox & acoustic guitar, but I'll be damned if I can get the guitar to sound 'correct'. I've recorded the guitar best that I can - 2 seperate tracks, 2 Rode M5 Cardioid Condenser mics (one aimed at the neck, the other at the body) etc, but it...

Hi all, I've been working on a song for the past couple of months, it's been at about 80% complete for ages now, and I finally got around to quickly mixing and mastering it last night so that I can move forward. Would be great to get some feedback - positive and negative as it's always good to...

I've been trying something different recently - picking up an acapella, choosing a style, and trying to produce a piece of music to fit that genre. To be fair, it's super fun to do, very time consuming, but I can loose hours and hours. Anyway - The wife suggested 'Justin Bieber' as a genre...

Hi, Sorry for posting an influx of songs, but I've just upgraded my SoundCloud account so now I can finally finish off, and subsequently post, some songs that I've had laying around unfinished as it's allowed me more space. Anyway, here's my new track Highway 95. Hopefully a few people will...

Decided to be the Noel Gallagher on this track and let someone else be the Liam, so I just worked away with my guitar in the background to get it right. https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/Pk7xedkJm6NyCLjy5

Found myself with some spare time over the weekend so tried (.... and nearly managed, maybe) to do something with an old acapella I had laying around from years ago. It was pretty fun making this as it was the first time working around just some random vox (which also needed sorting out all...

There are a number of 'F' words in this song, just letting you know I had a bit of spare time, if there is such a thing, so thought that I'd try something out of my comfort zone and go off in a completely different direction To be fair I have absolutely no idea how to mix/maser a song like...

Boyfriend 3 by Random-Tangent | Random Tangent | Free Listening on SoundCloud Just throwing this song out there - it's just an ongoing idea. I really want to try and do something different as I feel as I'm getting a little bored with the acoustic/folk/hippy music that I tend to gravitate...

Hi, I’m finding something that I’m doing really annoying, and was just wondering if there was a mixing technique that could be used in my instance. I’m finding that when I’m singing, I’m occasionally losing the last syllable of some of the words. I suppose that this is the way that I sing...

Hi Guys. I was wondering if there was a general tip that anyone would care to share with regards to mixing a song(s) to be played played on various platforms. I've been messing around with my latest song over the weekend: The Sun Will Shine Tommorow by Random-Tangent | Random Tangent | Free...

Hi all, I'm not really sure where I should post this (mods please feel free to move this) Yesterday I quickly did a really really simple song - me + acoustic guitar (and then I quickly popped a 'solo' on it). It all sounded a bit flat and boring. As it was so so simple, and could have been...

This weekends attempt (If I write a thousand songs one may be ok'ish) I Am Grateful by Random-Tangent | Random Tangent | Free Listening on SoundCloud I wake and I'm old, But I try to be thankful You know that I almost died? Did you know that I almost died? From a fire that's in my blood, I...

Hi all, I finally got around to 'finishing' another song over the weekend, and would appreciate someone else giving it a quick listen and giving me some critique. The amount of times that I've heard it now, I'm starting to not even hear it (if that makes sense?). I Am Grateful by...

I was sitting in front of my computer last night, guitar in hand and pen at the ready - and not really much was happening. So I hovered my mouse over, and opened up another recent song that I was working on. I then realised that I have about 5 songs that are all very much a work in progress...

Hi all, Can someone have a quick listen to this song that I've just recorded, and mixed, and mastered (well, attempted to anyway). I'm not sure if I need to raise the vocal volume slightly - on three devices that I've listened to it ok it sounds ok, but on another, the guitar seems to dominate...

Hey gang, This is the first time that I've tried to mix 'do' a song with more than 4 tracks - I think that this ended up at 28 actually. I think that I bit off more than I can chew actually - so next time I will go for slightly less. The song can be found here on my Soundcloud...

Hi all, This is the first time that I've tried to mix 'do' a song with more than 4 tracks - I think that this ended up at 28 actually :facepalm: I think that I bit off more than I can chew actually - so next time I will go for slightly less - but if anyone can maybe just point me in the right...

Hi all, I've been a 'home recordist' for a while now, previously only using an USB mic, iPad, and Garageband. Recently I've upgraded to an iMac - Logic Pro X - and Rode NT1-A mic as things were getting a little stagnant - plus I needed to upgrade computers for my job. This is the first time...

_________________________________________ EDIT 05-April-2017: Nothing happening here anymore - song completed and moved on to something else :thumbs up: https://soundcloud.com/tim-summers/picture-with-you _________________________________________ I’ve hit a wall, and need an extra verse (and...

Right, I think that I’ve come to the end of the road …. When it comes to continuing the way that I have been previously. It’s time to hang up the iPad + Garageband, and my Apogee Mic I’m not doing it to enable me to give up my job and make stacks of cash selling music, I’m doing it as...
