    Recorded a ground I can't get rid of

    I goofed. I was video taping the wife for some project she has going on. She has to do a 10 minute presentation on video. The mic on the cam wasn't cutting it, so I tried a shotgun mic I have, only to hear the hum of a ground in the damn soundtrack. We tried it again with a different mic setup...

    One particular add that pops up

    ... really offends me. Well, not really, but it contains the words in LARGE font "These guys are the shit" or something to that effect. While I am a sailor/merchant seaman and can cuss with the best of them, I don't use that language around my kids. The last thing I want to hear coming out of...

    Fender acoustics

    I've read a lot about them, and talked to some who owned them. The concensus is that they don't match up to most acoustic guitars. Fender supposedly didn't spend the same time and effort making them as they do their electrics. I looked at one in a pawn shop last year. It was a lefty. I looked...

    Here it is, warts and all

    I am not sure if I am jumping the gun with this mix, but I am running out of time to get it posted... :o joeym remarked that we would make one hell of a band, I would have to agree! So.... Drums - Greg_L Bass and Rhythm guitars - me Lead guitar - WhiteStrat Vocals - joeym Tell me what you...

    I wasn't going to post this

    ... but I figured, what the hell? It's a stripped down version of "With You Tonight". I was looking for a way to incorporate a conga track that BentRabbit did for it, when an idea hit me, and I came up with this version. I was going for a version that would sound more like a band would be...

    Think I finally got a mix I can listen to

    So.... Besides the drums being a bit in your face, what else did I goof up? Brother's Keeper (yes, it's a Christian song) The drums are Greg_L. The solo at the end is Gorty. The rest is me...

    May be going to Mac or Vista

    My laptop is getting pretty long in the tooth, and I may have to buy a new one soon. The questions are: 1. I can't remember if Reaper has a Mac version or not (I can't access the site right now). I seem to remember a beta version? 2. Is Reaper compatible with Vista? 3. How would I transfer...

    Joeym has a softer side!!!!

    Joe did the vocals to this. BentRabbit did the drums Anfontan added the acoustic lead and the cool dobro slides at the end. EDIT: oops, I forgot to mention the cool mandolin! :o I did the acoustic rhythm and bass. And of course I have authorship. If you heard the version I sang, this one...

    Software inquiry

    I am looking for something that will let me compose an orchastra piece and play the parts together as an ensemble, but have control over the different parts. I am not a midi guy, and have nothing on the laptop I am travelling with that will even decode it, so it's not an option. Basically, I...

    A collab idea, anyone interested?

    Got the idea from this thread I want to do a remake of AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long". As original as we can. And I want to make a music video out of it and post it on YouTube. Any takers? I won't be able to contribute to it musically, But I'll coordinate and do the video (with...

    My 15 year old mind

    Was amazing... A couple years ago I posted a song that I wrote when I was 15 because I was amazed at how mature the writing was. Well, here is another one I dug up. Tell me what you think. I am thinking of recording it. Temporary Breakdown She had a knack for going her own way And she kept to...

    DC Offset

    OK, again, I will say the more I learn the stupider (if that's a word) I feel. Just exactly is DC Offset, and when would I be concerned about something like that?

    Another 3 part collab

    I was waiting for another member to supply a vocal, but he has been busy with his own life, so it's me singing it. Anfontan did all the acoustic instruments with the exception of the two acoustic guits that open the intro. I have a rock ballad with dobro, mandolin and congas in it! The drums...

    Really kicks some butt! This app just keeps getting better all the time! Show me a more powerful and intuitive program for the money. I bet you can't.

    Remember the Rumble threads?

    We used to post little snipits to have guitar players wank on and see who could outdo whom. It was all in fun. I want to post another one, just to see if you all are up to it: http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=14229 This was done on my Yamaha PSR keyboard, so it's not super...

    Last collab

    BentRabbit once more on drums, Purge has the solo. He had to play it DI, so it's problematic. I think I got it... help! Such A Shame

    Praise and Worship (I'll get one right eventually)

    Another collaberation

    I am not sure this one is ready for human ears yet, but oh well. This time it's almost a full band: Me: bass and rhythm guitars BentRabbit: drums 7string: lead guitars and the harmony arppegios joeym: vocals I wrote it, but these guys made it a song. So is it ready for consumption or...

    A collaberation

    I posted this a couple years ago, to good reviews. Everyone said it was a good song bed, and needed something: lyrics, a lead guitar; something. I think I finally found that something. BentRabbit added his drums, and WhiteStrat added the incredible lead guitar (but it's not a strat!:eek::D )...
