Hey all, well I picked up Sonar 2.2 XL about 3 mths ago and have been working and learning ever since. I finally put together a sample of something that I've been working on with our band for these last 3 mths, and I think it's to a point to where I wouldn't mind some others listening and giving me some tips.
My equip. specs:
- P4 3.2 GHz
- 2G RDRAM
- Windows 2000
- Recordings done through a Behringer Eurorack UB2222FX-Pro into an M Audio Duo
- everything else done in Sonar
About the song - it's by far not complete (obviously no vocals in there yet, new mic is on the way for this!). The ending is also still not complete The song is going to be more of a laid back ballad, but with some good feel to it. I'm still having issues with getting the different drum tracks to sound what I think is 'right'. Biggest problem is that the mix peaks now and then with the crash and snare hits. Also, I still think the kick drum needs a little more 'thump', right now it seems too abrupt but I'm not sure how to fix it. Kinda think it should resonate a little more.
Any suggestions on getting a better mix, please let em fly!! Let me know if you need eq/limiter/compression/etc. levels.
Wanted to give some thanks out to James, moskus, Middleman, Porter, dachay2tnr, wfaraoni. You guys have helped a crapload in me getting this far.

Thanks in advance for the input.
