I know this is somewhat taboo, but since I've been an active member here, and have a few friends, I thought I'd post this anyway. My band, "Herod the Fink" has finally released our second album. A few months back, I posted the song, "Back to 337" here, and it was received better than I...

I'd just thought I'd share the new iteration of this tune. Jeff gave me a nice guitar track, and I'd appreciate thoughts on the mix. Thanks! Should I with Jeff on lead

Okay... I'm posting this for 2 reasons. I did a pretty deep analysis of my mixes after Greg's comments on my last mix during his last contest. I then created and mixed this song with the whole "harshness" thing in mind. This mix was mixed at pretty much all levels, and I tried my best to...

I haven't posted anywhere on this site but here, and the "for sale" forum, so I'm not entirely sure where this goes, but I'll try at it here. Mostly just because I value people's input here, and I know a few will listen, and give feedback. If this doesn't belong here, please move it. Okay...

Okay... So most of the songs I post here are recordings of other people. Well, ya'll have inspired me to write and record something completely original. My guitar skills are bested by most infants, and I can't sing worth a hoot, but hey... Here's my best shot. Written and recorded in 3 days...

A singer / songwriter came in to the studio with a guitar and vocals. We ended up producing it up quite a bit. As usual, I'm on the drums (had no time to practice, had never heard the song before, and spent about 15 minutes coming up with the track) .....aaaand, this is my debut on the bass...

So... I got this flyer telling "all musicians" to come to this locally sponsored "music fest". Ended up being one of the coolest experiences I've ever had, musically. The concept is - take 1 Saturday, and a bunch of random musicians get together, form groups, spend 3 hours writing a song...

I've been recording my set with this setup for about a year. Finally upgraded and want to get rid of my old preamp (8 mic pre's), and my drum mic kit. Originally, the whole set cost me $500.00. The pre is the SM-Pro PR-8, and the mics are those found in the Audix Fusion 6 kit. All pre's and...

This recording is from a group whose drummer used two snares for some of the songs. I wasn't quite sure how to compensate for it, so I just did my best. This is kind of tricky, because the overheads are tuned to the primary snare and the kick (thanks for that hint, Greg). The 2nd snare was...

I'm currently using a ribbon mic on my bass cab, and I think it's time to get serious. Anyone have a AKG D112, or something similar for sale? I've got an Audix Fusion 6 drum mic'ing kit I'd be willing to trade for it (perfect condition) Thanks.

I posted this a bit ago and got some great advice, so I did a bit of work on it. I thought this one was a bit better, and quite appropriate for the day. Have a listen here.

Hopefully this one is better... I ended up taking advice from pretty much everyone. I bricked one of the vocal tracks, and turned the whole vocal bus up 1db. I also had a copy/paste party with the drums. Great suggestion, Jeff. Lemme know what ya'll think. Dance With Me Remix

Yeah, that's right. This group's manager hired me to track and mix their stuff. Very interested in any nits to make this sound better. The whole thing was composed,written, played, and sung by a 14-year-old girl (except for drums). Enjoy! Dance With Me

I've been at learning how to play guitar / bass now for about 1.5 months. No lessons, so I'm fairly sure I'm doing almost everything wrong, but I just had to record something using my newly learned instruments. I thought about it, and came up with a perfect song for the occasion. The more I...

I've got a friend who plays bass really well. He wanted to come over and jam, and we ended up recording a little something-something which is turning out to be a good mixing exercise. Bass, in my experience, is probably the most undervalued instrument in bands, generally, yet when played by a...

I've been working on a new song by our little duo, "Herod the Fink". This one is called "Desperate Husband's Chorus", and to be honest, I'm kind of anxious and hesitant to post it. This is mainly because my previous post, Back to 337 had such a tremendous response. So, anyway... This one...

With my new mics, I thought I'd rip out a beat and see how it sounds on all your systems... Any nits? Rippin' Drums Thanks!

Alright... Here's my attempt at a listenable pop / rock song. This pretty much represents the best I can do right now in my studio. Let me know how I did, and what I can do to make it better. Thanks, peeps. Back To 337 PS - I know direct links to mp3s generally suck, and I've tried...

I recorded a friend last night, and I'm interested in any and all critiques. I used a mid-side technique for the guitar, and am curious what you guitar experts think. Thanks! Click for Song UPDATED MIX AS PER COMMENTS - BASS BY ANTICHEF (nice job, BTW) Click for Updated Song

I've always enjoyed watching drumming videos on youtube, but I always hate the audio quality, and rarely see videos that are flattering to the drum sound. So, with my latest Christmas project, with the final song, I thought I'd put up a video camera and see if I could nail the drumming to the...
