I meant this (this particular cheescake is AMAZING!) Not a 40's pinup girl...

Okay, Jimmy (well, everybody), here's my upgraded "kit". Found some free drum kits and listened for what I liked. Placed them and mixed them to sound fairly balanced.

So my notes: Replay the bass line (I like that part, bass is fun!) Fix my guitar technique on the song. (lots of practice on the licks) Reduce the vocal FX to keep the warmth, but make it sound less fake. Program the drums (Use my USB surface and play it in) Figure out the subtractive eq that...

No, not a bunch, but the name of the song is Questions...:D Still, I have a few questions. Okay, when I got it on the reference speakers (Bose Companion 3) I notice the guitar is too loud at the end. I can't seem to get the guitar and piano closer together in the pan. Does this sound alright...

Here we go with the more human version. Much less mud on the bottom by actually kicking the high passes out of the kick and the deep toms.

Recorded this 10 years ago. The piano, bass and the guitar have been scrubbed with acetone trying to clean them up. They sound good individually. The brass is re-done and sounds flat and lifeless. I've tried adding voices and that helps some (should I maybe add more)? The drums are programmed...

I don't need a lot of in/out and am looking at around $500 to replace my M-Audio Firewire Solo. I need Midi and want to get rid of the firewire interface. It has one glaring glitch in that between on and off it can shut down. If I'm listening to tracks and stop (not even leaving the program) it...

Just finished reading the new issue of Premier Guitar and there's a wonderful article on Joe and his craft. Very driven individual and some very unique guitars.

In India they use type D receptacles: Don't know why they wouldn't have two prong to three prong adapters if they have two prong equipment...

Okay, I'm still learning new stuff, but when I found out Reason's desk is based on an SSL 9000, I just had to see...and sure enough you can create parallel channels as easy as right clicking the channel! This opens up a whole new way of processing for me. Process effects on separate channels and...

Cheapest way to record drums!

Get e-mails from one of the songwriter's orgs I belong to that say they are making compilations of music for worldwide distribution to radio stations. Lots of hype, no promise. Basic premise is they make 10 song CDs with a few well known bands and throw on indie material with. No cost to submit...

Had to laugh at this. My Italian is a little weak (I know about 10 words), but this guy had modern techniques down. First half puts EVH to shame, second half uses drop tuning for bass line on the guitar. Amazing! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7M8L1rAUsI

I'll stand by my original post on the subject. Read Greg's primer and you'll make a lot fewer mistakes and sound better sooner. OK, I've said enough...I'll be

Not to mention, I think I was the only one that caught that Muttley was talking about knocking up a burger in a different post... :eek: I guess it must mean something different in the UK, here if you knock it up you better be prepared to marry it.

And is simply a Line 6 amp sim in my Reason rack with effects added on the console.

This was done direct in from my Hamer with no amp or effects. The sound you hear is from a Reason Combinator patch called Hell Spawn (modified a bit) with some interesting cv programming to get the harmonics to come out on the longer notes. It may not be exactly what you're looking for, but it...

Okay, all you bass players, here's the question: Did you ever play headless, and did you find it WAY better? I had one of the original Headway Riverhead basses (pre Japan) when the electronics were poop! The deal is, it was so much easier to work with live. Play an note long enough to see...

Not as many tracks on this one, but I like the idea of show AND tell. Thanks Manslick!

A little grim-esque, I'm afraid, but I'd like to get some opinions. I've always grouped the vocals far left, drums far right, and instruments between. If I have the room to leave one or two channels blank between, it really helps me. I find it much easier to work with mixdown if everything is...
