Really nicely done...there's a lot of stereo separation going on for the acoustic guitars which i like....Byrds esqe. Feels pretty authentically recorded. Good voice..i'd bring it up a notch. Mark

That was good fun! Nice voice and smooth recording. Mark

Thanks for the kind words and feedback...all helps and I'll hopefully get a mastered version up in next few days. ?

Thanks for the listen...you're right, I'll have a look at the eq on the bass and ease off the booming note a little. Do you mean the picked bits or strummed rhythm part? Cheers Mark

Evening First outing in over a year for me due to a hand injury. This is a song i'd been working on before the injury...I'd kind of abandoned it ages ago but then thought it might be a useful way to get used to recording again...so it got a new vocal melody and lyric and is right here...

Thanks for all the examples...this is probably as simple as I need it...seems to be same method as using volume envelopes. Perfect ?

Just on an individual track...no bus involved. Ta

Hi Its been a year since I did any recording after a hand injury so trying to remember half the stuff on reaper I never learnt properly in the first place ?...one of which is applying an effect to just one portion of the song ...a rejig of my memory would be helpful. Cheers Mark

Hi I feel that I'm fairly competent at getting an acoustic guitar to sit well in a full band set up mix as backing, however I often shy away from leaving a track raw ( that I'd prefer raw) because I feel I can't get an acoustic to sound strong enough on its own with minimal backing. I usually...

Evening....Feedback on this one would be much appreciated as always... Cheers, Mark Dusted 25 - 11 V2 by Mountain Telegraphs | Free Listening on SoundCloud

A simple question that has probably been asked a ton of times but theres no sticky as such. My PC is struggling to cope with running reaper as soon as I get to the top end of track numbers. I typically work about 30 tracks with a reverb buss and several other plug ins on individual tracks. Some...

I've been using MT drummer a while and very happy with it, however just having one kit is a tad restrictive. Is there a similarly intuitive drum vst with a wider range of kits / percussion? I love the speed of working in MT so thats the key fir me...not wanting much of a learning curve! Mark

We'll soon be moving house and will finally have a spare room so I can move past recording at the dining room table or on the sofa...sadly the spare room won't be a dedicated studio space but it is at least somewhere I can camp out in for the odd day here and there ?...I'm therefore looking for...

I'm often struggling to get a decent bass tone on my songs. They often sound 'woofy' or 'flabby' The strings are in decent nick and I'm not quite sure where I'm going wrong. I record DI into a focusrite solo and have tried a couple of plug ins along with reapers own cockos compression preset...

I'm trying to drop the velocity of a snare which was dropped into reaper from MT drummer. On Kenny Gioia's tutorial its as simple as right clicking on the piano on left in the midi editing screen and then changing velocity for all notes in the edit. Unfortunately I'm trying to do that and it...

Whilst inserting some empty space at the start of a track I forgot that I'd turned off the snap tool. This means the section inserted was not regular in beat with rest of the song so its making copy paste from verses etc difficult. Is there a way I can get the grid lines back in sync with...

I have recorded a low key acoustic track to a drum backing in Mt Drummer. Strangely, although muted, I can hear a very irritating low level drum in the background, even when rendered. I used closed ear cups to record, there are no send or recieve buses so no idea why this is coming through..i...

Evening. I've not posted for a while due to a hand injury but finally got round to doing vocals and a mix on this song. It was written after watching a live Frankenstein show on NT live during lockdown...it's about love, obsession, murder...all the good stuff. Shes the better part of me But it...

Hi I posted the instrumental version of this some weeks ago and finally got enough time to work on the vocals. It's not been mastered yet as just wanted a few thoughts on the balance, levels and of course the song. Feedback as always much appreciated. Mark Where The Grasses Lie Demo 14 - 07...

I've just started using a Rode NT1a for vocals to replace my old ADK mic...for the first time ever in reaper I have had what appears to be some kind of latency issue on playback. No issue recording and monitoring but the playback is a few milliseconds out. I think it even varies on takes which...
