All valid points, thank you. The only guitar I've ever bought sight un-seen was my Ibanez RG550 Genesis. It has a very different neck then any of my other guitars (Tele / Les Paul), but I don't mind it too much. The Vola's look like the usual super strats, which I do like, hence my RG550...

Anyone have or tried these guitars? https://volaguitars.com/en-ca I don't need anymore guitars, but you know how it is... I like this one, wish they made it in a 6 string. I've never played a 7 string before. Take one string off? :)...

I get what your saying for sure. Kind of like child actors, they are often coerced and taken advantage of. Speaking of Phil Collins, did you ever check out his side project in the 70's, 'Brand X'? Phil was an awesome drummer at his peak. I may be going too off topic in your thread, I won't...

Or a drunked up Phil Collins is a real crowd-pleaser to! I'm sure you've seen this, but it still impresses me. I dabble in drums, so I kinda know the technicalities involved. Nowhere near to your level of playing though. She does 'Burn" as well.

That's awesome. Excellent playing, and great sounding kit. One of my favorite Purple songs, and drum tracks of Paice's.

It won't make any difference to your DAW. Do you need any of the features Pro offers over Home listed here? https://www.lifewire.com/windows-10-home-vs-pro-4177144 If not, stick with Home.

Yeah, that is a bit harsh for sure. I take that back. I revisited some of his stuff on youtube, and he is better then I remembered, certainly a classic rock vocalist. Still active and capable singer for his age, which is impressive. I think it's his overuse of the high register screaming...

The first song you posted has the vocals in the center of the mix. The second and third song you posted has the vocals panned, so that they are coming out of the right speaker, rather then center stage. There are no rules, and comes down to personal preference. There are many recordings that...

HumanPlanet, my comment above was kind of rude. I wasn't sure what the context of the file was, and confused it with the original post. Anyway, my apologies. I try to be more cordial in my old age, but sometimes I slip up. Look forward to your thoughts on this mix.

Excellent. You are a very more then competent guitar player, but I've said that before I think.

Frank would approve of this. The wah section sounds a bit out, but it isn't in the grand scheme. Interesting song!

Not sure what humanplanet's file is about, or why it is even posted here. The updated file you have, Musicandvibes, however, is an improvement, less low end smudge. When you step back and listen to a song as a song, this is a good song. I can hear the instruments clearly. It isn't harsh...

I like the overall vibe of the song. The verses are great. The chorus could be improved. It's a good chorus, but it needs some reinforcement. The drum fills detract from the potential power of the chorus. 'I' got a million miles behind me..' (question / call) (drum fill / answer) The drums...

The recordings sound good to me. Too bad the vocal is panned hard right on some of them, odd choice. I've read this entire thread, but am still unsure of your intent. Do you want to redo parts of these songs, or just remix them?

I thought it sounded pretty good. I'd have to give it more then 10% originality, since Coverdale wrote 50% of the tune. Coverdale was never my favorite deep purple singer, but he does great in this, IMO. After seeing his live singing of late, I wasn't sure he could sing at all anymore. He...

I like it. Very 80's vibe to it, which is great. The vocal phrasing reminds me of 'Light My Fire', by the Doors. The melodyne or whatever pitch tool you used is a bit obvious at 00:51 - unless that is what you were after. I focused on the part with the 'synth' and It sounds balanced enough I...

I can't say specifically what 'bug'. All I can tell you is that I've used a multitude of software over the last 30 years, and you get a feel for when things don't work quite the way you expect them to, and accept that. Overall, it's a solid program. But like any piece of software, they can...

Big drum sound! Kick might be a bit loud, but I like loud drums, so I don't mind. Really nice guitar playing, certainly not run of the mill for sure. You convey a lot of feeling / emotion in your lead playing, not an easy task in an instrumental, but always the end goal. No complaints on the...

You have a very interesting voice, an excellent voice. I hear what sounds like lip-smacks / erroneous vocal noise that could be very easily edited out of your tracks. I think it would help it out. 00:19 and 00:24 for example. Takes little time these days to clean up small imperfections in...

TripleM: Thanks for taking the time to listen to it. I did actually EQ the vocal a bit in that range already. I'll take a look at how much I reduced it, maybe a touch more is in order. This is the change of mic that I alluded to in the other thread. I find it less harsh then the SM7, and...
