Hey Guys, I'm sorry to have disappeared. I caught a nasty case of the flu. Anyway, poor excuse, but I finished the vocals for "Ashes" that song you wanted to work on. I did about 4 takes and did a cut and paste of all the best parts (if you can call them that) into one file. The only thing...

Hello all! It's good to be back...I hope. Anyway, I've been off music (as well as these music boards) for the past year or so (not that anyone cares), due to some personal situations, as well as a day job that was totally kicking my ass. Since I'm now in a less stressful situation (for the...

I'm in the process of putting together a desktop PC for music recording, et. al. (since my Dell laptop, which I had been using as a recording device for the past couple of years, bit the dust on me). This card is currently selling for 99 bucks at ZZound.com. Anyone have any experience with it...

So, I've made some live tracks available on my page at AL for your enjoyment and/or drubbing. This coffee house where I occasionally perform will, for a small fee, create CDs of performances. So I took a CD, I created wave files, did some eqing (like, upping the bass and the treble, and even...

I remixed one of my older tunes for inclusion on a compilation CD. Added lots of effects, flanged my guitar to death and eqed the hell out of it.. head over to this site and check out "Just This Side of Eden" http://www.artistlaunch.com/helens And let me know what ya think! :) Thanks!

I resang and did some tweaking on my song "Ballad of Phoolan Devi". I've discovered how to do use some of the DirectX and VST effects within N-Track, and I've been able to make some of the tracks within the song sound really cool. Then come my vocals. I redid my vocals this afternoon, doing...

I redid the guitar parts on my song "Just This Side of Eden". There are actually three guitars playing on this song now: Two miced acoustic takes placed at left and right, and the original DI take that's been placed in the middle. I now realize that either I should have fixed some mistakes in...

I guess I'm a glutton for punishment, huh? :D I uploaded two more acoustic numbers on one of my pages at Artistlaunch. The are at the top of the page. I took some of the ample advice I got a couple of days ago (HEE HEE HEE) and applied it where I could. The first one (on the very top) is...

Hey all! I've put up some initial mixes of some acoustic tunes I'm working on. These will eventually go on an EP that I (hope) to distribute locally via gigs in coffeehouses and such. The only one on there I'm REALLY not happy with is Niland. The vocal file has a lot of noise on it, and I...

Hey all! I just spent the last two hours trying to record my acoustic with a pickup into my sound card via the direct in method. I have two external soundcards that allow me to record the guitar via a plug that allows for either a mic or a guitar plug. Anyway, I'm trying plugging in via that...

I got one of these: IT came in the mail today. And I used it to put together this itty bitty ditty: Hi Fi Lo Fi Waddya think?

Yeah, I'm cutting it close...I just printed out and signed the contract, and I'm now redong the cd burning (I burned an audio CD, rather than a data CD, per Slack's req's. Bad me :rolleyes ). Anyway, I've worked on this song for the past two weeks, and was up all night trying to get this mix...

I've been asking around about possible outboard compresors that I can use to get myself off of using my ART MP Studio preamp, when my ART Phantom II Box comes in. A lot of people suggested the Really Nice Compressor. I went over to that sight, and while I was really impressed with it, and as...

So, I was perusing this thread in the N-Track forum and, when one guy started discussing how he used egg crates as a sound absorption technique, and another guy stated that he used bubblewrap as a sound absorption technique it got me thinking about this voice over article from Electronic...
