    Are instrumentals 'songs'?

    Unless you play a song. Which, if you do, you absolutely can play instrumentals. If you want to insist on various parts of song structure as well, then as someone who writes instrumental songs, I absolutely think in terms of verses, prechoruses, choruses, bridges, solo sections, etc. The only...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    You should have pointed us to that clip weeks ago. :LOL: So, there IS a little bit of perceptible resonance in thay chord that isn't really audible elsewhere. It's probably more obtrusive to you tan to anyone else, if it helps - I can hear what you're talking about, sort of an additional...

    How to pan two mics

    when you say "one track" do you mean played back together as a single performance, or do you mean you want two tracks, but ultimately you're going to want them in mono? There's, um, a lot of ways to do this, but if I wanted one performance of acoustic guitar, and one performance of flute, and...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Is there any way you CAN record a chord with that C note in it that also has this resonance? Guitars are just resonant beasts, listening to this solo'd, it's not really jumping out at me as problematic (though, it also sounds nothing like the slight resonance I heard in the video of someone...

    How do you treat a Shaky/Wobbly Vocal take in post production?

    Not at a place where I can listen to the clip I'm afraid. The sort of snarky, flip, but honestly probably best answer here is "hit delete, then practice and re-record so it's not shaky." That's probably best practice but maybe still not super helpful. Is your issue pitch wobbliness, or...

    How to remove back round noise from vocal stem

    Trimming out sound before or after the start of a vocal is pretty easy. Removing noise from a part of the file where the vocal IS singing, that's a lot harder. There are noise reduction plugins but Ive rately found them transparent for steadty state hiss, and they're not very good for one off...

    Best Wireless Lavalier Microphone in 2025? Experts Guide

    This also feels a bit like spam, somehow? New member, no follow-up posts in the thread, looks like there's some sort of referral data in the links themselves, eyeballing it, and a lot of that stuff can monetize tangentially related purchases even weeks after the fact... Plus, this is a pretty...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    I'm not in front of my home computer and wouldn't trust the headset I have here for anything approaching critical listening, but I'll try to listen in the next couple days after work some night.

    Pulled a coupla guitars from storage for general cleaning and love recently

    I've never been a Gibson guy, feel or sound, but that's a nice looking Strat, and it's from the same general era as my main Strat (a '97). Looks to be the same basic specs, though mine's maple/alder, and I've modded it pretty heavily. QC was still a little hit or miss back then but the American...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    I think you underestimate how bored I get at work. :LOL: But, seriously, I would love to hear a clip of the issue you're having, or see a video of it, it possible. It it wasn't that slight high frequency overtone I was hearing in that video, then I'm not entirely sure what to suggest, and...

    Guitar Straps

    I don't have a ton of good pictures online, but I have what's gotta be a 30 year old Levy's leather strap on my main Strat. That should open to a picture where you can see the strap wear the best (edit - nope, slide 4), but it's worth flipping through; it's justworn to hell these days but...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Is there any way you can post a clip of what YOUR guitar is doing? "Buzz" is probably not the right word, but there are some harmonic overtones I'm hearing that sound kind of like the unwound strings barely touching something as they vibrate. It's really tough to say though, the effect is pretty...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Ok, WFH day here so I can finally come back and listen on a decent set of speakers. So, 6:25 of THIS video, this is what you're hearing your guitars do? That strummed chord is an example of the horrible 1k overtones you're referring to? Honestly, whatever I can hear in that clip is awfully...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Rather, it's multiple guitars, all doing the same thing? That's hardly conclusive, but kind of makes me think it's something outside of the guitars, rather than the guitars themselves. It's odd to have a whole bunch of them all have the same issue, you know?

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    That makes me think it's not the guitar somehow. Are you mostly playing in the same room? What happens if you take them outside?
