    Surf-Psychedelia mix

    BTW if you want I'll lay down a live drum track on this. It won't be tighter than the computer drums, but it will sound more musical.

    Surf-Psychedelia mix

    Hey what's up dude. I like the chord progression. The chord progression sounds authentic surf rock. The guitar tones are decent. The drums flat out don't work IMO. Your ears have probably regularized it by now but for me it was an unpleasant shock to the system. It's all 80s synth - sounds...

    The bottle let me down

    This turned out pretty good. Nice blending dude.

    Rock song: Cave Paintings

    I mean, neanderthals and early humans had a roughly 25% of living past the age of 40, and their infant mortality rates were horrific, so it probably wasn't exactly a utopia lol. Anyway, I dig this tune. It has great character. I like the blend of instruments. The bass, drums, keys, and guitars...

    Helter Skelter (The Beatles Cover)

    The guitar tones are nice. They're dirty and vintage sounding and fit just right. The drums I think could benefit from new heads. The tape on the heads often sounds good live - it reduces ambient ringing and noise that is annoying - and then on the recording they lack depth. I stopped muffling...

    Lost Boys (cowboy/western/rock song)

    I like the drive of the tune. Good performance. I like the orchestration. The vocals have a lot of sibilance. The initial section and the section where it goes back to vocals and the initial rhythm sounds - I think you are going for a big contrast but maybe it's too big? I don't know. I can't...

    The Battle Of Brighton Beach '64

    yeah this is a fun listen. I like the energy behind the guitars and drums. Nice balance with the guitars and bass. It's gets you going. Drums might be a tad small - but that's nitpicking. Have you added parallel compression or parallel distortion? Or tried a parallel snare reverb track slightly...

    The wages of fear

    Hey what's up Nick. Vocals sound nice. The steel string sounds nice. The steel string panned hard left kinda overpowers the vocals near the beginning and then later on when the texture returns to the beginning format. During the chorus the balance is nice though. Hope all is well!

    Surf Rock Song - All Comments Welcome

    Hey there. I'm playing drums and bass and guitar on here. This is the first mix I've ever done using outboard compression in the mix phase. I enjoyed it and learned a lot. I know you don't really need anything that's not ITB these days but for me this was a great learning experience. Recommend...

    Problems with Logic Remote

    I use logic remote. It is a really cool feature. I link my iphone to the macbook pro and am able to hit start and stop record etc while I am sitting at the drum set on the pother side of the room from my DAW. The dang thing worked properly for about a week. Then it stopped linking up and I was...

    Live Vocal Processing - Need Help

    I know very little about live sound let alone live vocal processing, so any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance. I have two EV ETX35s (powered 3 way speakers). I am happy with them, they are super loud and sound good. Right now I am running sound into them with a Mackie 1604 VLZ. It's mostly...

    Classic Rock Tune #2

    Hey there. This is a classic rock band I recorded in my basement. We recorded the drums, bass and rhythm guitars live and then overdubbed vocals and lead guitar. I don't play on this one, which is kind of neat - I got to just run around setting levels. I don't have anything in particular to...

    I don't Trust My Monitors

    I use Yamaha HS80s 3 feet from the back wall on acoustic pads on my desk facing long-ways in a rectangle room that is 16.5 x 35.5 with 9 foot ceilings. I have wood floors and superchunk bass traps floor to ceiling in 3 of the corners and OC703 4 inch thick 2x4 traps all over the walls and...

    Classic Hard Rock Band - Need Mix Help

    OK this is my friend's band. We recorded the guitar, drums, and bass live at my house and then overdubbed the vocals. All comments welcome. Most of my music is instrumental so mixing vocals is kind of a new thing for me. Thanks! Edit 1: I tried to do all the suggestions. It's less loud and less...

    Jazz Fusion Tune Mix 1

    OK this is my first mix in Logic - been a PT guy for a long time but I never upgraded. Needless to say Logic X is better than PT 6.9. I am not familiar with the plug-ins at all. I did a lot of experimentation with this one. First time recording new drum set. First time playing drums in a long...
