Here's the first mix with acattoir's new drum and bass tracks.... I already have a new mix, mostly gain staging changes, and a bit of EQ changes... it sounds cleaner, but this is all I have with me at school, which is the only place I have internet for the mo...

Here's one of my songs. The rhythm guitars were recorded with my Mesa Express 5:25 right after I got it. I think the guitars are a bit thin, but they sit well in the mix, I think..... :confused: What do you think? http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=14838 Peace! ~Shawn

Hello Everyone, It's been a while! Here's my attempt at an instrumental. CLICKY HERE Please feel free to comment on the mix, as well as any ideas for additional instruments that could be used to sweeten the arrangement. I still have some drum programming to do on this... just some simple stuff...

Some of you may remember me posting a question about jazz chord progressions a month or so back. The reason for this was because I was starting a jazz combo/improv course at the community college here in town. Well, I'm 2 weeks into it, and the instructor set me up with a gig. It was today, and...

This has always been one of my favs, but pressed to the task, I would call it my favorite. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOsgv_X_cV8 Peace! ~Shawn

I know this is asked all the time..... But will you please recommend to me a cheap LDC vocal mic for recording? I own an AT 4033, from the mid 90s. It sounds good, but I think something a little more warm and round would be nice. So, what mic would you recommend, and why?? Thanks very much...

Hey guys, If any of you bought the silver version of the plugin, you can upgrade for free using Monkey.... Just go to the "optional add-ons" tab, the highlight gearbox plugin, and press either the "activate" button or the "purchase addons" button (I can't remember which) Viola! You now have...

Hello everyone, As has been pointed out here, my lead playing is more than a bit diatonic. (very simple, harmonically speaking) So, I'm taking a jazz band course at community college this fall. Can someone recommend to me some progressions, and what chords to use where....I need a brush-up...

What say you guys..... will it make a difference in tone or resonance, or anything else? How about you guys that own a neck-though electric guit.... do you think that makes a difference? If so, in what way(s)? Please discuss. ~Shawn

Just got me one of these..... I wanted a Lonestar, but this one has the sound I was looking for. It's called a Mesa Boogie 5:25 Express 1x10. It's got two EL84s, and a gaggle of 12ax7s.... Thing sounds killer... I even kindof like the built-in reverb, and I usually can't stand spring...

Hey guys, I found this site that offers software for really cheap. http://www.cheap-software-megastore.com/ Are they selling pirated stuff? ~Shawn

Hey guys... I've got an SM58 I've had for about 10 years, and it's giving me a bit of trouble. When I touch it, I get a loud 60Hz hum. It seems like it would be the other way around. Any ideas? I can solder, but troubleshooting is another matter. Do you guys think I could/should try and fix it...

Last night, I had the chance to pick the brain of Paul Riser for a few hours. He's coming to teach arranging at the school where I'm involved, and this was sort of his introduction to the faculty and student body. He brought a string section (12 folks from the Detroit Symphony) and we supplied...

OKIE Doke guys.... I've worked until I'm blue in the face with this one, mostly on the drums....I just found the snare sounds really bad on laptop speakers... :( Besides the tracks needing to be cleaned up to get rid of the click etc, what do you guys hear...

Hello Everyone, The next big studio upgrade will probably be a drum room. How big does a drum room need to be in order to justify the expense? How about dimensions? What kind of ceiling height? Ideas?? Thoughts? Please, discuss!! ~Shawn
