    Don’t do it. Planes are destroying my health. It’s not worth it! She said yes in April and the wedding is next year! Using this song to make the “save the date” video :guitar: :)

    Thank you andrushkiwt. You are probably right, there are some performance imperfections. I may try to use Logic's Flex timing to fix some of it since I travel for work and I'm only home 2 days a week. But very valid points. Thanks for listening to the track, I appreciate it. jimmys69 - I...

    Jimmy! I emailed you! Shoot me your email please, I'll send the wave files! Thanks TripleM, you are 100% right, the piano and strings are MIDI... not sure how I get around that? I'll check on the timing issues... I'll quantize the piano a bit more. Regarding the drums - I know, I can't seem...

    Yeah... I know, I hear it too. And I am glad you brought it up... what happened is the strumming guitar has both strumming and picking. The timing of the picking clashes with the dotted eigth note delay.... that will be tough to fix. Argh... May need to re-track or just cut out the arpeggios...

    3 post-writers block songs for the judgement of your ears

    Hey Charles, Welcome to the board! Old Taxi in Hallway - I think the mix is good, mastering level is good in my opinion. The biggest feedback I have for this song is the arrangement/dynamics. You may be able to take instruments out at the beginning to build the song as it goes (and therefore...

    Hi Charles, Thanks for the constructive feedback, this is useful. I wil try to beef up the drums and spread out the guitars. I agree - things get muddied up in the verse. I just don't know where to put what instrument in the tonal spectrum. Maybe I do pan hard right and left the guitars...

    I am open to both :) I can take the feedback and try to continue mixing it, or I can bounce to a wave file and transfer to someone. Are you offering? :)

    Hi mj, The hallway starts at the bottom right corner of the picture (horizontally to the right) The stairway is at the bottom of the diagram, this is where there's a higher ceiling. Does that help?

    Help with Acoustic Treatment

    Hi guys, I recently moved in to a new apartment where I am using the downstairs living room as my music room (recording and playing). However, the room layout is quite large and I'm not sure how to best treat it as a step 1. Should I start with bass traps in all corners of the room? This is...

    Hardware or Software Synth?

    I think this is very close, now I need to decide whether I go hardware or software. Prophet V from Arturia seems to get close to all of this. Any thoughts on hardware vs software?

    Hardware or Software Synth?

    I just did, quite impressive. I have a feeling this is way above my head. Probably need to stay closer to the simpler systems.
