Had lots of trouble covering the dynamics of this song with one mic - abandon my usual favourite ribbon for an SM - still a lot of automation into compression and then also the fader of the main vox bus - how did I do??? Thought appreciated This Drowning Boy Cheers Burt

Comments on production greatly appreciated, particularly on reverb, sing a new plug-in Reverberate Barbs of Love Cheers Burt

Its been a while since I've been here so I appreciate my rep is low - but please some feedback on the mix would be great. SoundClick seems to have up the bass a bit with its compression - so not sure about that Butterflies Cheers Burt

I usually post songs in the Song writing forum, but as I am now trying to get a decent sound I think it is time to post here for comments as well. It is a busy mix, but I think it still has clarity and seperation. With the Ac G and synth string providing the chordal basis the rest is hopefully...

It appears like many of you my summer was too busy to actually compose, thoguh I was still writing and now have got this one mixed. As always value your comments on lyrics or song. I will also post this one it the mix clinic for more feedback there. Cheers Burt Into the Bleak 1 In a broken...

Well it has been a while, busy work then holiday away from computer and guitar!!!! Anyway this is first one in the barrel after a while. This is a very old song with a new Chorus; I just couldn't let the little guitar pluck/riff go. This Ch actually says it plain to the previous metaphor heavy...

Firstly thanks Joseph for allowing me to work on you material. Once again being free from my own lyrics and stronger ideas about my music has been incredibly liberating. The Vs progression and melody I have had around for years and the lyric without too much re-scanning fell very nicely. My...

Sorry 10 days behing 'The Great Fire-Wall of China' has made accessing and uploading all to difficult so sorry for the delay on this one. BTW anyone who knows of a red guard friendly proxy server for next time I cross the boarder pls let me know! So here it is Dave my version of your great...

I am considering buying the UAD XPander Xpress Pak for my Macbook Pro to master in Logic. Any opinions vs. say something like Ozone 4?

I have been a fairly active member of the Songwriting forum, but this is my first venture into this group. The reason is that after about 2 years I finally have the material together that I want to record and mix into an album. So here is the first mix 'Sing Autumn Leaves'. I am after general...

Any suggestion for Mastering Plug-ins for Logic Express - or if you think I need them? I just read a SonS review of iZotope Ozone 4 sounds good, but I know 'jack'. That's about the top of my price limit as well. Either individual components (Dynamics, Imaging, EQ, Reverb, Loudness?) or as a...

Sing Autumn Leaves is an old song that I always knew suffered from a poor arrangement. I am rounding on a old few songs as I finally get a sense of an albums worth of material I'd like to produce. I seem to be going through quiet a good patch at the moment and this came quite quickly. Big...

Well after struggling for weeks it all happened in a rush. Some of the rhymes are a push I guess, but I think it meet the criteria and has continuity you can listen here (sorry Soundclick - allow pop-ups and you should be right) Very rough 'babies are asleep' headphone mix Just the other day...

Tittle: You only love me at night Why'd you only love me at night? She only loved me in the night time How she loves me in the night time or some derivative of the above

Up fiddler – My first Car I like this approach; it reminds me of the way that the tow truck Mater in ‘Cars’ moves. The beat and the riff (like changing gears with a worn clutch) are jumpy and agitated and the prosody suits the lyric beautifully. The first listen was very jarring, but by the...

Here is the link to my recording of last months song. First go on logic (Yes I finally up graded of GB) and also first monitor mix in a long time - getting rid of Korg HD recorded meat I could reconfigure desktop - not sure mix is as good as headphone ones I normally do - oh well maybe put in...

This old House FrankieRage c.2009 This first verse is the strongest part of the song – structure, concise and evocative. The permanence of the pictures smile vs. the real women smiling for someone else is a get image. I do not have a problem with this, as a verse it is very cinematic...

This one is probably a bit too co-dependent for Gecko taste but it is what I have been working on when I really should have been working on Dec challenge. As always feedback is greatly appreciated Cheers Burt The Barbs of Love 1 Why’d you leave me with the living When you left me for dead...

Definitely 'First House/Flat' but probably an amalgam of many houses. Something about how it was 'built with love'. But immediately as I write I get an image of a house haunted by memories of the past Need a progression or a riff to give me direction. Surfing the whole Yule tide vibe with a 5...

http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7132547 Posted lyrics sometime ago, this is a very rough version - think I will change all to strings. Thoughts and comments please Aliens and Angels 1. She told me stories from the grave As we drank Pimms and lemonade The drama days we dedicate To down and...
