    let me see your studio!

    Here's where I do most of my work. Small upstairs bedroom, right hand monitor jammed into a corner. Hardly ideal. There is a large living room downstairs where I can record as well, but it's a fairly big job moving things so I'll usually only set up down there when my wife is out of town for...

    Routing pins: What do you do with them?

    I've been using Reaper now for a couple of years. I have never had occasion to use the routing pins. Granted, what I do in Reaper is fairly simple. Can anyone suggest a practical application for these pins? What can you do more easily using them than not?

    Back On Our Feet Again

    Hey all. New original song, first one I've been able to finish in a few weeks. As usual, lyrics took the longest. It was fun to record some acoustic guitars for a change. I spent way too much time trying to balance levels on the lead and harmony vocals. How do they sit? Composition...

    Carolina Sun with Sarah and Easlern

    [Edit: New mix in link.] Sarah and Easlern did the vocals and I put in some harmony. Those two are terrific. Please comment on the mix. I'd like to do justice to Sarah's performance. https://soundcloud.com/rami-40/carolina-sun-with-sarah_ray-taylor Carolina Sun Well the dawn comes round...

    Let's Ride. New song.

    [Edit: New mix in link] I thought would change it up and record a rock song. I got the idea from an old song I recorded in the early 2000s. It wasn't very good, but it had some parts I liked. So I took those and reworked them, adding new lyrics and melody. This is a rough mix. I've been...

    Jenny Jones. New song

    Here's a new original song. I posted a rough version on the S&C forum back in the summer. Thanks to those who commented. The struggle has been balancing the various vocal tracks and getting them to sit in the mix. Here's where it stands at the moment. All comments welcome: mix...

    Guitar rack plans?

    Here's what I'm doing. It's for rack gear, not guitar. But it might give you some ideas. I used an old table from Pier 1, added a couple of boards as you can see, and mounted a pair of rack rails. It works well for my needs. I like that it's open, so easy to access the back of the gear...

    Tall Order. New Song.

    Here's another original song that is getting closer to finished. This is much changed from an early version I put on on the Songwriting forum last month. You all gave me a lot of help with vocals and getting the harmony to sit in the mix on my song Delilah. Hope you'll do the same for this...

    Jenny Jones, New song

    EDIT: Thanks for the comments Bruthish and CMolina. I'll pull this since it seems to be on this forum that a track will get all the response it's going to get within a day or so of posting.
