I'd give that one up.

I'm very confident that I will hear any one of the following in my lifetime before I actually hear anything that Southside has engineered ...

[

Well, I will keep trying to get him to back his words with ANY of his work.

I have not lost hope yet. :D
 
Maybe I'm not speaking for everyone else, but...

I certainly don't care who the best engineer is. Glen spends a lot of time offering advice. I've never heard his recordings. Maybe they're not that great, who fucking cares?

You ever met a fat personal trainer? They know their shit, but they're fat. And they don't show you how much they can benchpress but they can explain the proper way.

Not saying Glen is like this at all, it's just an example.

I can't believe how old you guys are. :eek: I try and picture someone your age in real life blabbering like you do and it doesn't fit.

Maybe I'm the only one, but when I come to read a thread to possibly learn something and instead, hear a bunch of retarded arguments, it sucks scrolling through the posts to find something useful.

It sucks even more to scroll to the end only to find that the OP probably gave up and there really is no valuable information.

End of rant. :mad:

Nobody is talking about who the best engineer is, just whether glen is one at all. I could spout of about medicine and diseases and anatomy all day but that won't make me a doctor will it? I'd like to hear something from him as well. Lot's of people post examples of their work and him absolutely refusing makes me wonder.


Oh, and I'd never take advice from a fat personal trainer either.

DINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDING. We have a winner!
 
I have made several different MP3s available publicly to this board as well as to individual memers of this board in the past. My bio is available, and has been for over a year now, to anybody willing to get off their ass and grab it off my website, as well as posting it here on this board on at least two different occasions that I can recall offhand. I have made some 5000+ posts, the vast majority of which contain good, solid advice based upon 28 years of experience doing this stuff on both an amateur and professional level. You all are welcone to judge the evidence with your own intelligence, or just follow the loudest rabble and call me a liar. It's your choice.

I am f*cing tired of having to defend myself over and over and over again just because of two sociopaths who keep asking the same question over and over again just because that's what gets their childish schoolyard rocks off. I have had to answer lists of interrogation questions, which I have fully and truthfully answered on several occasions. I have fully and successfully answered all bullshit charges brought against me by these two dopes in the past couple of years more times than any 10 other members combined in the history of this board. If that's not good enough for the rest of you, then just put me on your ignore list. I'm through.

Thi is a two-way street right? How about let's ask some questions regarding my accusers.

First there's Ed Rei, aka Ford Van, aka walters, aka Sonusman (who has already been banned for this kind of behavior before.) Ed has made a lot of noise in the past couple of weeks about the literally "tens of thousands of hours" he has spent recording and mixing paying clients working "many different studios". How about a list of those studio names and addresses. Ed? How come they're not listed on your resume or on your website? Oh, wait. Where is your resume or bio again? Where is your website? Those tens of thousands of paid hours reflect a pretty tidy salary over the meager 9 or so years you claim to have been at this. What do you have to show for that, mister moneybags? (And BTW, 9 years is pissing in the ocean. If I were to just up and quit today, you'd have to be at this racket for another 19 years - until the year 2026 - to have caught up to how long I've been at it.)

Then there's Keith "chessrock" Ricker, who hides his two websites in obscure corners of the Internet because they actually come across as quite newbish. Here's a guy who calls anybody who doesn't mic every square inch of a drum kit with a seperate mic "stupid", yet he barely lists enough microphone channels in his gear list to record the OHs. And what does he record to? According to his Geocities website, it's "Pro Tools-like". What the hell does that mean? Trying to make your copy of N-Tracks or Audacity sound bigger than it is? Why are you afraid to actually say what you're using? Afraid the unknowing 14-yr-old's in grarage bands in your hood have never heard of anything other than Pro Tools?

Oh, and then there's his "audio for video" website in which he uses someone else's copyrighted material to provide examples of his "work". Not only lame, but illegal. Maybe that's why he hides it. Or maybe it's because he has two websites with no history, bio, or resume page outisde of one that has been blank and supposedly "under construction" since 2005.

I'm damn tired of these two sociopathic pretenders stalking me and slandering me at every turn. I have defended myself far more than enough and far more than most resonable adults would be willing to. If the rest of you don't like the fact that I'm not playing that game anymore and missed your oportunity to see me play Ed's "show me your mixes so I can ridicule them regardless of content, because that's how I get my rocks off" game, that's just too damn bad. I'm through.

Awfully defensive when you consider that the ONLY thing I have ever asked is for you to point me to an example of your work!

FYI, I believe I was the FIRST person/studio to have banner ad's for one of my past studios here many years ago when Dragon exchanged them for me to write articles for the main site. Yeah, "pretender". :rolleyes:

Funny how now that some other respected members are saying "Yeah Glen, it does seem odd that you won't post your work" that you are putting forth the "take it or I leave" approach. Mature! :rolleyes:
 
And it is still funny how you think I am walters. LOL You look like a complete goon every time you post that. :D
 
.....and, you have NO idea why I was originally banned as sonusman! But I can say it is not for the reason you have stated.

Come on Glen, satisfy the interested world. Just post some mp3's of your work. Like stated earlier, nobody would take advice from a fat trainer about weight loss or endurance training.
 
Glen is basically proving that he's trash.

If you really go back and look at the posts in question ... they've been pretty civil up to this point. Aside from a little high school locker room razzing, all I see is a few guys expressing their desire to hear some examples from another member. The guy obviously has some smarts, and isn't afraid to throw it around ... I would imagine someone like that would be showing off his work every chance he could get.

A perfectly legitimate request. From there, Southside breaks down and shows basically no class, throws out personal insults, etc.

I may have a little immature fun razzing the internet / homerecording character "Southside Glen," all in good fun. But I would never stoop so far as to insult Glen, the individual. Mentioning his real full name (I could care less if his name was Gus or Steven, frankly), complete with judgements about his personal life, his profession (again, not of concern to me), etc.

That, to me, just shows a complete breakdown. No class whatsoever as an individual. Regardless of what others on this board might think of him, the guy's trash.

Alright guys.......the "pissing contest" has got to end sometime........

To have a "neutral opinion" on this rant war.......even though Glen has not posted his audio works...... its irrelivent. I still would honor his opinions and advise. In audio, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. Even if one person may think the advise is total crap, its still one persons opinion and effort. Ill listen to anyones suggestions and advice......if its good advice, great.......good. If it sounds like bad advise........hey, thats one persons opinion and kudos to that person for chiming in to the subject matter.

point is, even if i heard glens audio work (good or bad)......i would still listen to what he has to say. Thats why we all come here.......for fun and advise. Ill take as much advise from any one who is a PRO, ........or someone who doesnt even who what the hell they are doing. Like i said, in audio......ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

And as far as certain people who love to come on here and just "bash" people with insults (you know who you are).................i admit, ive been bashed here a few times.......and i LOVE IT! it keeps this forum alive with humor........

......ok.....chessrock..........im ready for my daily beatdown..............just dont break my fingers........ill need them to work my magic on the "gain knob".:D;)

Comeon, guys, let's hear YOU answer some questions for a change. I have answered enough, including questions that have been asked of me 100 times, Come on, let's hear answers from you two. Is that too much to ask? Can you dish it out but not take it?

Come on Ed, why were you banned from here?

Why, if you are not walters, did you so much as admit to as much in a neg rep you gave me?

Where is your studio now? Where are your banners now?

Where are these multitudes of studios you have worked at? What are their names and their locations?

Where is your website? Where is youre resume? Where is your bio? We've all seen mine. Come on, Ed, let's see yours.

Same for you Keith. Why has your resume page remained blank ever since you built your one website? And why does that website use copyrighted material in an illegal manner?

Just which software is it that you use, Keith, that you feel the need not to name, but rather prefer to call "Pro Tools-like?"

Other than the couple of preamps you name, what else do you use to record your multiple tracks of drum miking that you insist is the only way to go without being "stupid"?

Why do your real name, address, phone number, fax number and buzzer location (next to the car wash? LOL) in public on both of your websites for all of the Internet to see, but get upset when I call you by your real name here? What are you ashamed of? What are you hiding?

And why do you try touting yourself as the brand name "opinionated studio owner" giving pages worth of product reviews, opinions, and general advice columns on other websites and yet crucify others for trying to do something similar here?

Come on guys, it's your turn to answer a few questions for a refreshing change. What are you afraid of?

Glen Glen Glen...please, stop yourself before you embarrass yourself even more!

Where is YOUR website? You know, the one for your studio, that you record all these "bands" in? :rolleyes:
 
Already asked and answered at least 10 times over the last 2 1/2 years, Ed. It's your turn now.

Come on, no need to for to you all of a sudden turn shy; we all know you are about as far from shy as black is from white. We'd really like to hear your answers.

Come on Ed, why were you really banned from here? And remember, there are still plenty pf people here who were around when that happened and know the truth, so come clean, Ed.

Why, if you are not walters, did you so much as admit to as much in a neg rep you gave me?

Where is your studio now? Where are your banners now?

Where are these multitudes of studios you have worked at? What are their names and their locations?

Where is your website? Where is youre resume? Where is your bio? We've all seen mine several times over. Come on, Ed, let's see yours.
