    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    I don't know - I'm taking a stab but it doesn't seem unreasonable. My guitar 'wants' to ring at F, and I hear your G-pitch overtones on my guitar but they sound natural; just part of the sound of the instrument. If it's easier for your instrument to resonate at certain pitches than mine maybe...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    I hear harmonics playing some of those chords, sure, but not in a dominant annoying way (no pun intended). For example, if I pluck simultaneously, thumb and index finger, X-3-X-3-X-X That's C + Bb, the makings of C7, I'll clearly hear the G that isn't there, with all X strings muted. Might...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    So go do it then. :oops: You could find that changing the saddle makes a difference to what you're hearing. Alternatively you could find that the offensive ringing frequencies you're hearing have a relationship to the resonant frequency of the instrument. Either way, though, you'd have test...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    I'd still replace the saddle, if only for testing. It looks fine is no use. I'd be curious where your guitar naturally resonates and if that relates to the specific frequencies of this issue. My Yamaha rings like a bell if I sing an F in to it - You can feel the whole thing vibrate (with the...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    As before, not sure if it's what you're hearing but I do hear a sine-wave like ringing at around 795-800hz. corresponding to the 5th of his C chords. You can actually hear it ringing out on his final held chord right before he speaks, almost like electric guitar feedback. There's a pretty large...

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    What were the results from these suggestions from earlier? -try in a different room -try a different mic -change strings -ensure that saddle and nut are perfect -use inspection mirror to check for lifted bracing -ensure bridge isn't lifting - see if thin paper can go under it anywhere If...

    What’s a good laptop for production

    Not the prettiest looking app in the world, but it does the job! I stopped fighting windows updates a long time ago. In the end I added all their domains to my pi hole so it can try to download updates all it wants - It won't happen. :ROFLMAO:

    Incremental fader movement

    You can hold ctrl whilst moving the fader and it will move in smaller increments.

    WinDirStat, if memory serves.

    What’s a good laptop for production

    Damn, really? Not saying you're wrong but I don't think I've ever encountered that. I've opted for the 256GB model three times in a row since 2011 and I generally have around 60-100GB free. That leaves enough free space that I never get stuck and have to juggle. Broadly speaking, apps get...

    What’s a good laptop for production

    Just get a 1TB SSD and hang it off USB C. Problem solved for less than £50 with the added bonus of portability between machines.

    Sound

    You use ASIO on windows for direct access to the hardware from your recording software, more control, and lower latency. CoreAudio (built in to MacOS) provides that already, with the handy bonus of being able to address multiple interfaces at once. Whether you need a device driver or not...

    SM7a/b humbucker coil

    Some guy on youtube doing a 7b capsule replace. That looks, to me, like an external coil on the right-hand capsule.
