The Secret To Great Recordings

[jeff0633]

Look. I don't know what's more absurd.
1. Your relentless pursuit of the logical fallacy that rooms are either great or crap.
2. Your laughable 192k mp3.
3. You apparent, pathalogical inability to be wrong.
4. All of the above.

As for talking recording smack...probably want to ease up on that, slick.

Greg produces some damn solid mixes and Im pretty sure it ain't in a "great" room.

lol, I was thinking the same about you. refusal to admit there's a reason companies spend thousands on great rooms.

You are totally confused about what a good song is and what a good recording is

Greg hasn't offered one single bit of substance and he is free to give some links up

and it's laughable that you think an mp3 cam hide the sound of a good room.

Greg hasn't offered one single bit of substance .

Welcome to HR.

 

[Greg_L]

Jeff, why are you so angry?

 

[jeff0633]

I'm gonna go with #4.

As far as my mixes go, I'm sure Phil Spector here will find plenty wrong with them. I mean, he's a real pro, and even if they're good, he's gonna have to talk shit about them just to save face. I've seen and heard it a million times.

lol, your "MIXES"? We aren't talking about mixes. We are talking about good RECORDINGS. In case you don't know, you can have a good recording of a garbage truck, no mixing needed. Who's talking about mixes? You seem to be under the false impression that a good song equals a good recording, sorry, but that's not true. maybe you better first figure out exactly what we are debating here. A good song is a good song, it doesn't even have to be recorded at all to be a good song. A recording is a representation of any sound and a good recording doesn't have anything interfering with the natural sound of the source, no low end dips that cloud the sounds, no comb filtering. So, you seem to be quite confused here.

I already told you, dummy, I aint playing your stupid game. I'm just gonna make you run around in circles while you show your ass. It's working fine so far.

I didn't think i would get any, still waiting, however.

 

[Greg_L]

A lot of people call their songs/recordings a "mix" or "mixes". Typically, a "mix" is a collection of captured sounds arranged in a way that's balanced and pleasing to the ear.

Did I really just have to explain that to you?

 

[jeff0633]

Jeff, why are you so angry?

Me, sorry, smiling away and actually laughing at, oops, with you.

 

[Greg_L]

I didn't think i would get any, still waiting, however.

Be real dude, you're gonna shit on anything anyone posts. You're in way too deep now. You will talk in circles all day long just to save face. Sooooo predictable.

No, you made more of a fool of yourself, sorry to say. i explained that a good recording doesn't have to have any mixing at all, do i really have to teach you this? Ever hear a sound effects library, greg? Can there be any good recordings of anything other than a musical song?

 

[Greg_L]

Lol @ sound effects libraries. Dude, we're talking about songs, not a door closing, you dummy.

And this is a good argument by you? Come on bud, this is laughable. just get it over with and tell the world that these multi thousand dollar rooms are meaningless, all they needed was good musicians with good songs, and good mixes. You could be rich selling this incredible info. How dumb all these engineers are for spending thousands on good rooms.

lol, no we are not talking about songs. Do you even read the threads you post to? try again kid. Check the name of the thread, then read the original post and tell me were are talking about songs or recordings. I'm waiting.

They're not dumb because idiots like you will pay for it. It's a good business plan to convince people that the room is all that matters. I aint mad at ya there. You gotta make a living too. Meanwhile, there's thousands and thousands of people doing their own thing in their own home studio that sounds better than that clusterfucked shit you posted earlier.

Well, the OP in the original post said "players", and 99% of the membership here plays music, so I'm gonna assume he's talking about songs and not having a band around to slam doors and stomp their feet for a sound effects library. You're hanging on semantics in a last ditch effort to win a debate that's unwinnable. A little common sense is all you need, and sadly, you are really lacking in that department. But go ahead, mention flutter echoes again.

 

[Greg_L]

Greg wins.

Wrong, again. I never said anything of the sort. Lrn2contextualize.
You have about zero grounds to tell what I may or may not be confused about. Get over yerself.

 

[Harvey Gerst]

I wonder who has more nutriders - Ethan or Harvey Gerst?

Probably me, since I've been here longer.

 

[Greg_L]

Probably me, since I've been here longer.

Your honesty is appreciated.

The original poster said good RECORDINGS come from good players, he said nothing about songs or mixes, Greg. What a pathetic attempt to keep from looking completely silly. You failed and embarrassed yourself even worse. He EVEN DENIED that the room plays an important part in a good recording, get the picture now? Come on greg, you are embarrassing yourself here and trying to act cool or funny to lessen the damage.

I'll be willing to help you start your campaign to inform the audio world that good rooms are not needed at all, only good musicians, good performances, and good songs, so these idiots spending thousands on floating floors, walls inside of walls, tube traps, bass traps, well, they are just wasting money. Can I be your manager as we go around the country telling all these huge sound companies that build studios that they might as well go out of business?

We can sell this stunning info. i can just see the headlines

MULTI-THOUSAND DOLLAR STUDIO CONSTRUCTION NOW OBSOLETE!!

HOME RECORDING GENIUS DISCOVERS GREAT RECORDINGS CAN BE MADE IN SMALL BEDROOMS WITH NO TREATMENT!!

ECONOMY DOWN AS STUDIO CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES FALL BY WAYSIDE!!

 

[Greg_L]

Everything is to the extreme with you. That's really funny. You've taken like ten-thousand things out of context and twisted them into your own delusional claims of what people say. I'd point out the desperation of that kind of defense, but I don't think I really need to.
