Forgive me for cross-posting (I just posted this in the "Music Video Production" forum) but I'm not sure I ever posted this little jam in the clinic. We had a late season snow here in the Midwest, and while the rest of the region bitched about it, I put my camera on my ATV and had some fun! The...

We had a late season snow here in the St. Louis area. I put the camera on the ATV and paired up the footage to a jam that I recorded a couple years ago. Enjoy the ride:

A manufacturer's decription: The Pro Channel from ART is the latest offering from the world's most popular tube dynamics processing manufacturer. ART engineers have combined the world-renowned Pro MPA, Pro VLA, and Tube EQ into a single product - creating the world's best-sounding and most...

An oldie but a goodie. This is the VoicePrism, not the the VoicePrism Plus. The first link is a review of the "Plus," and the second link is an another review that describes the difference between the two (couldn't find a full review of the VoicePrism)...

This is not a "music video" per se, but rather a video that's accompanied by music that I made. It was born out of a (tongue in cheek) Facebook discussion about my arduous trek to get the mail. It's also a great excuse to play with a new toy--the GoPro Hero3 camera. Very fun toy!

Not really a song, or even a mix to be critiqued--but there's no other logical place to post this. Just took delivery of a handmade Native American flute today. So forgive me--since I've only been playing for a couple hours--but I always have to hit the "record" button. It's how I get to know an...

This is always my favorite part--setting up for a new session. It's hard to see 'em with all the crap in the background, but I've got 5 of my preferred vocal mics ready to audition. It may end up being none of these--but I'll bet I could pick which one it will be. In any case, I'm looking...

You betcha. So the UPS dude brings me my Cubase 7 upgrade package today (going from 5 to 7). Unlike Jimmy so wisely recommended (at least I think it was him in one of these Cubase 7 threads), I installed it right away--yes, right in the middle of a 3 song project. 1 done, 1 almost done, and 1...

Also titled "What I did tonight (this morning)." I picked up a 32 channel console for my studio about a week ago. It's analog, so there's no automation--which means I'll still be mixing in the box. But this console has really sweet preamps: super clean, super quiet, with tons of headroom. Also...

If you're demon possessed or otherwise allergic to things related to Christianity, move along. This is the friend of a friend--I never met the guy before he drove 400 miles to record in my studio. I'm glad he drove down--he was a cool dude and we had a great time in the studio. This is the...

That I produced for my office: Happy Holidays! - YouTube

I'm a bass hack, and as such, have instruments suitable for a hack. A family member who is way more than a bass hack recently fell on hard times and sold his beloved Warwick Streamer Pro M. I'd have helped him so he could keep his guitar, but he didn't tell folks he was in a bind. Now that I've...

My kick seems to be all tight thud, and no boom. I'd like it to be combination of the two. In your experience, is that more a function of tuning or mic placement? It's currently mic'd with a D112, inside the kick, about an inch or two away from the beater head--offset from the beater itself by...

I've got racks and racks full of stuff that I hardly ever use--stuff that you may want! I'm downsizing/simplifying so I need to pack in more channels per rack unit. I'm not talking about a cash deal--but a trade. If you've got an Octane (or 2!) that you're not using, let me know. I've got ART...

Just saw the pic from my phone in my email inbox and remembered that you asked this. Here's how the mic was placed. Double tracked, same placement on each track.

This is not so much a mix to be commented upon, but rather a sample tracked with a new mic. For the first time in my life, I jumped out of the low-to-mid budget gear realm, and bought a mic in the "upper" realm (at least to me). I bought an AKG C414 and it just came today. Here's some acoustic...

So my main guitar was out of commission for a while. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I brought it back into commission. No bass or drums, this is just that guitar--a Van Halen-esque intro with a classic Bach-style major/minor progression: http://soundcloud.com/whitestrat-1/diego

Anybody remember this? My Studio Construction Thread I just sat and read all 25 pages of it (the completion pics are on p. 19 if you wanna skip ahead) and really enjoyed the trip down memory lane. I finished it almost exactly 2 years ago, and I'm sorry to say that I haven't used it 10% of what...

Last years vacation + last nights wicked storm = this tune. http://soundcloud.com/whitestrat-1/old-san-juan

When I was a little kid, my ultimate fantasy was to drive a car. I dreamed about driving night after night. Fast forward 40 years, and guess what--I can drive! But now I have a young fan (his name is Kelby, and he's True's grandson) and he can't drive yet. So when I sat down to create a...
