Robertt8 said:...not a huge fan of just those little cymbal hits. it just seems like i'm waiting for more drums to kick in, but all i get is an isolated cymbal tap now and then. it just seems odd that out of an entire drumset, the one cymbal is all that's hit...
Maybe a little sibilence on the vocals that is mostly "sh" or "s" related.ocnor said:There is a light fizz sound in the vocal that is just enough to be annoying. It sounds like the distortion that you get from a "Toob" preamp or a worn out dynamic mic.
I wasn't referring to sibilance. If you listen with headphones you can hear a small amount of fizzy distortion that coincides with the vocal parts. It would probably go unnoticed by most people unless they are listening for it. I can sometimes be a little anal about that sort of thing.ido1957 said:Maybe a little sibilence on the vocals that is mostly "sh" or "s" related.

The fizz/distortion that you hear is probably just the way that I sing. I've been told that I put a soft touch on my vocal tone which is probably what you're referring to.
Unless of course you're hearing something that my ears can't pick up.
ido1957 said:I'm a reverb junkie although I've been on the wagon lately. What reverb are you using BTW?
danny83 said:I'm using the cakewalk fxReverb. I used 8% on the Bright Plate setting.
I think I'm a reverb junkie also because I dried up the recording and left only 2% verb on the vocals and 3% on the guitars (just to add the harmonics lost from the actual recording process) and although it sounds more intimate, I think I like the short reverb trails a little more....
The guitar still sounds pretty good dry, but as far as my vocals go, I can't see myself liking less than 6-8% reverb. The recording I posted above was pretty saturated, I think I used 12-13% verb....
yeah that may have been little overboard
