Is this mono? Why not stereo?

Sounds clean to me. Maybe the kick needs to be bigger

funk on!

[JMarcomb]

I cant seem to convert to a stereo Mp3. When I try to make a stereo mp3 it sounds really messed up. Maybe I have to resample down to 16/44 first... ???

I agree I need more low end on the bass drum.

[CyanJaguar]

if its 48khz you will need to resample to 16/44.1 before converting to mp3

[JMarcomb]

Cyan.. I resampled from 96,000 to 44,100.. it is now stereo .I reuploaded it

[mixmkr]

musically, very nice and happening. The action seems to be happening just off to the left of center, mix wise. Could you make that main gtr in stereo?...fill things out more, left/right wise?? Stereo drums, maybe?? I liked the octave stuff, just starting at :55....ya left me hanging wanting to hear more soloing....

[JMarcomb]

sure .mix... I just starting listening and the guitar is panned left with nothing right..ooops I'll stereo things out right now

[jerod]

I loved it! I agree that you could bring up the kick a bit, but the musicianship was really what got me/ the clean guitar. Very "eric johnson-esque" sp?

All the melodies came through and, in my mind, it "did what it had to do" ---tell you the story of the melody.

Imagine that ... I love E. Johnson
Thanks man!

[jerod]

It was the octave things that reminded me and the timing. Can you re-post in stereo so I can hear it again with the panning?

sure thing jerod

[JMarcomb]

The crazy thing is I can only hear out of 1 ear . No joke And I was trying to mix it through headphones... haha .. that wont work.. so much for trying to do it quietly

[kartikbala]

Really cool clean tone. But as others have said, the mix seems slightly biased to left channel. Maybe you can try and balance it out a bit.

couldnt get it to play dude.... I'll try again later..

[Track Rat]

Definately a E Johnson vibe. Very good sound. I don't usually like acoustic pick ups and prefere a microphone but it works nicely here.

[Kramer]

Smooth tune man!I dont hear any Eric Johnson in there(I have all hisCDS) like someone else noted but it does Sound kinda like Craig Chacuico's acoustic stuff.I like it a la'

It mostly sounds like J Marcomb!Good little piece of music:-)

[JMarcomb]

I finally got her in stereo for those who want to listen.

That sounds great. What was the weird really loud synth noise in the beginning? I did not dig it that much. But no worries. I think that this still really cool.

Thanks for uploading!

I still cant get it to work

[TripleM]

Nice smooth sound. Good bass line and smooth guitar playing.

Question: what did you do for the drums? Was it a midi track or a drum machine or what?

[JMarcomb]

I wonder why you cant download still Sabbath... are you using a sattelite connection from the moon?

It is a stereo drum loop I made from my Korg Triton.

thanks for the ears.
