    Really struggling with acoustic guitar mixing

    Interesting vocal effect. Guitar sounds fine. It could be a little brighter. What strikes me is the difference in the quality of sound between guitar and vocal. One way to make make the overall sound more cohesive is to drop the effect on the voice and give it a simpler, more natural sound...

    Wayfaring Stranger

    I pricked up my ears when I saw the title, because only recently we had done a version of it. I enjoyed your version. And I thought the mix was great. I wondered whether some of the instruments I hear on the left could be sent to the right, e.g. maybe one of the fiddles. But really, It's...

    Seeing if this works...

    The composition has your unique and identifiable style. It's good that you are still creating music. Well done.

    Noob needs advice on DAW selection

    All DAWs have a learning curve, and how steep that curve is depends on how good the programming is, and how well it matches with how your brain likes to think about things. Garageband is a simpler DAW. Reaper is a DAW that is both simple and complicated. You can go from loading it to recording...

    Comfy chair

    Likewise . . . armrests are a hindrance. I went through a vareity of chairs, none of which proved to be comfortable or durable for the longer haul. Eventually I managed to get a chair (for nothing) from a call centre that was going though a refurbishment. That proved to be the winner. It is not...

    I have some tools as a mod. See below. The 'edit' option is where I would hope to find accesses. However, that's not the case. All it does is allow modification of some metadata

    Fruity Loops will crash when using two copies of DSK Brass VST

    I've got a few DSK VSTs that I use from time to time. DSK Brass and DSK Overture I try to avoid unless I really need to use them. Their use can result in Reaper crashing occasionally.

    Audio interface with remote footswitch

    I don't think you will find an interface like that, but you will find DAWS in which you can remotely control the transport functions via midi. That might be a worthwhile starting point

    My singing vocals don't sound good. Advice?

    I listened to your sample. Well done for posting it. Thoughts: 1 Just about everyone hates the sound of their own voice. That's just something you have to live with and get used to. 2 However, I hear nothing wrong with your voice itself, and nor with the raw recording of it. 3 But, I can...

    Cubase v. 2.01 on Atari

    I got the Amiga 500 not too long after it became available (using a Commodore c64 before that), so that would be around 1988. II used it in conjunction with a yamaha mt3x 4-track cassette recorder, and shortly after, with a Roland MT100 sound module. That kept me gainfully busy for some years...
