    Mics/Pres sure take a while to warm up

    It usually takes 30-45 minutes for my mic and pre to warm up fully. Of course by then my voice is also warmed up so that kinda works out ok. But I do wish they warmed up right away. Imagine if the old tv's had taken that long to warm up. Just my gripe for the day....

    You - New Version

    Hamilton Steele- You Here's a new version with less lead guitar so it should accomodate the vocals a bit better. Some stereo changes so it's not as centered as before. Lead features Mike's new USA Stratocaster Deluxe. Let us know what you think.

    How many bad songs do you have to write before you write a good one?

    I see my previous thread went completely off the rails. So I'm hoping this one will stay on topic. I've seen people post that you have to write a lot of crappy songs before you'll write a good one. It reminds me of that old adage that you have to spend 10,000 hours doing something before...

    Most expensive mic you've ever used

    What's the most expensive mic you've actually used for recording. One you own, borrowed, rented, used in a studio. And include what you liked or disliked about it and recording if available.

    Reverbs - how do you use them in a mix?

    I've never explored reverb too much in the past. I have the Pantheon reverb I got with Sonar. There's a few dozen presets to choose from but I stick with Concert Hall almost exclusively. Send the guitars and vocals to the reverb bus and adjust so that it's there but not apparent (that seems to...

    Pay to get your song performed/recorded/mixed/mastered

    I clicked on a link on this board for pro mixing/mastering services. The rates seemed pretty fair say 300 a song. Then I clicked a little deeper and found they were offering a full 5 piece band to perform/record your song and I assume mix and master for $1600+. My little 10 song EP would have...

    Writing bad songs

    Someone mentioned on another forum that you have to write a lot of crappy songs before you can write anything good. I disagree. There's too many guys here that from the start write consistently good tunes. And who decides what is good anyway? What do you think?

    Satin Finish Gibson guitars

    They suck in my humble opinion. I prefer the gloss finish.
