boydrj:..yep retracking the drums tonight hopefully..its funny after you have heard this TOO many times the vocals just grate on my nerves but thank you.
doug h:..yeah it was a different day totally that i recorded them ..so the pre wasnt set exactly the same ..after i fix some guitar stuff(couple of timing issues)..ill go back and redo the vocals start to finish to at least sound the same..GOOD CALL i thought they sounded diff bu ti wasnt sure it was enough to warrant redoing it....still not sold on the "eluding" chorus thing ..it seems like it needs something in that first chorus ...
m brane..i know EXACTLY what you mean its all direct recorded garbage ..i wouldnt know good tone if it punched me in the throat.....everything sounds soooo crispy and thin...UUUUAAGGGHHHHH
..see i need to find a guitar player with no goals of his own who wants to JUST do the things i want to do....that should be easy right?!?!?!....
dobro...thanks man ...its just you well i TRY to sound "polished"..its just a weakness..i cant help it ...i WANT to sound like its a "MUTT LANGE" production...only without all the hit potential and or money!!!..im glad you like it tho that helps...ahh ahhs need to come down a touch CHECK!
twist:..cool yeah the bass /drum FIGHT to the death is killing me..if i cut it the bass drum sounds like im punching a pillow..the bass is being taken care of by one of our resident ACTUAL KICK ASS BASS PLAYERS....so i dont have to worry about that thank god.
part-sissy-plant:...hey GOOD TO SEE YOU .
yeah alot was taken care of sound wise when i finally figured out the CORRECT way to record...lol...i dont want to name any names here but i hope the guy who will ultimately do the bass part..GUERNICA.....see what you suggested on the bass sound..sounds good to me...eventually i will just say screw it and set my damn drumset back up and record it that way ..maybe i can sell this yamaha elec piece o crap on ebay..and in glad you think it sucks soooo much ass..thats why were freinds!
stratomaster:...so what YOUR SAYING I SHOULDNT STEAL FROM ONE OF THE BEST SONGRWRITERS OF ALL TIME?!?!?....lol..yeah i hadnt thought of that maybe i should revisit the old pen and paper...damnit..only thing well...ok....see i saw "track rat" post somewhere that he had made a copy of the drum track then compressed the crap out of it ...and pushed it up under the normal uncompressed track...i tried it ...i MIIIIIIIIIIGHT have gone over board on the compression tho...
your right the guitar is off time in the break too..(fixing )..no bass as yet..see other reply !and once again thanks for taking the time brother.
muzeman:..thank you pete..i almost went the other way with this in trying to go for a garage band "craplike" sound...im still torn as to whether or not this SHOULD sound polished...thanks again.
jcmm:...hahaha joel we must have the same processor with the "a.s.s."plugins...im using EXTRA HEAVY DUTY ASS this time to ensure i got a nice thick layer on it...i dunno must be some mp3 glitch that makes it appear as if my guitar playing is improving...lol..yeah its the "tight bass" preset i think ...i call it .."the first one i came to"...
fatt musiek:..thanks the drums are a yamaha dts elec kit...and YES the sounds suck..i cant seem to set the levels right so that everything sits good being that its all on one track...*sigh*...ok thats it ...im setting my drums back up this week....ILL BIGHT THE BULLET AND JUST DO IT
