Would you please give me some feedback on this tune? I know the acoustic is buzzing pretty badly. I haven't got the perfectionist thing down yet. Thanks! http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2595&alid=-1
Thanks for listening! It is a Rickenbacker, which difinately has a unique sound, but I thought it was appropriate for this tune. I could very well be wrong! It's the only bass I have to work with, so I'm a bit limited. Obviously I've got a thing or two to learn about bass recording. Any suggestions anyone??!Middleman said:The only thing that really bothered me was that string noise on the bass. It has a very YES sounding bass, if you remember who those guys were. Its a little harsh in my headphones. If that is a Rickenbacher bass I would try it with a P bass or Jazz bass to round out the lo end.
Reverb sound was a little metalic, would have used a Hall effect more than the ambient room metal sound but that's just me.
Like the tune mucho, draws you into the story and keeps you interested.
I recorded the bass by miking an amp, but you're right! It's not versatile at all. I'm thinking about trading it, but I really do love the sound of a Rick....Tough decision!!! Thanks for listening to it!flash2ace said:like the song alot. your vocals are nice and they realy add alot of spice to your writing style.wow the harmonys realy add. the richenbacher bass is a unique instrument but its hard to record with and doesnt offer alot of virsatility in sounds.how are you recording it, are you miching a amp or running it direct into board or using preamp? overall very nice production and writing. man you just kick butt all over the harmonys. love your singing style.
I used a Yamaha DT Express electric drum kit, and the sounds aren't so great in it. I agree though, after you mentioned it, the HH are a little up front and bright. Thanks for listening!B.SABBATH said:great bass sound.. it's too loud in some parts though.. nice vocals.. good song.. it sounds like you may have added extra high end to the high hat and cymbals? they stand out too much imhop.. not from volume, but just because they're almost too crisp.. sounds like a bad edit @ the 5 minute mark..
nice job!
