I am going to assume it is not the cable? I speculate you probably have a bad solder. It could be just as simple as reheating and making the contact better. I would think contact cleaners since the cable is going in and out keeping oxidation build up not being an issue. There are a few others...

For the longest time, I would have most of my songs at a 70% stage. Now that I am trying to expand my catalog and I am trying to keep it fresh, I am finding I am using the DAW more as a composing tool. Once I have something that could be workable, then I either start blah, blah tracks...

For this type of site, I think this kind of information would be helpful to people. I know there are lots of folks on here that have really good knowledge. Maybe this would encourage more old timers to submit just for the teaching part.

I am starting new recordings, very early. We know what that looks like. I have a drum track, throw some chords down, scratch vocals. Pretty sparse. I was going though one of my releases last night and there is like 20+ tracks, just a whole host of all sorts of things, compressors, faders and...

I found the 90's has some jewels. Yes, you have to kiss a lot of frogs, but there are some princesses in that decade.

OK, now don't get too pissed, but when I first started listening (now I am a pop guy at heart), I thought, what a F'in mess. Then as I furthered listened, I have to say, it becomes very interesting and really good. You seem to be really pushing into "strange new worlds" or old ones I just have...

Good mix, it has all of the correct pieces. Are you playing your stuff in clubs? This would be a good loop so that you could "jam" with it.

This is a tricky topic. I for one look at the old studio musicians back in the day. We will use Steely Dan (or my favorite group to dislike, the Beech Boys). They had hired guns. Yes they were "real", but they weren't "the band". For me, I play most of my own stuff I record, but, drums for...

I think it is a grand idea. I would hope, and we can defend, if someone gets butthurt we can pull them off the cliff. But I think this board is the perfect place for such curiosity and furthermore would be considered a compliment by many.

Yes, maybe. That is why generalities are not good. But what my main point was is that the guitar doesn't have to be as fat in the mix as it is when solo.

Yea, I am using some plugins, not sure of the results yet. Waves plugin as well.

As I am trying to take my recordings to a higher level, I have been diving a bit deeper into transients, how to effectively use them to smooth out bass guitar snare, etc. But also how to utilize them to create dimension and space. I know I can go out and find information, and I have, but...

I have been watching/reading and experimenting. It seems when using in the mix, cutting a lot of the bottom out of the guitar so that it sits in the mix better. Isolated sounds like shit, but in the mix, it cuts through and can be heard. I know I am working on the very same issue. I can't seem...

OK, an update. The world of dealing with hardware changes the game a lot. As I stated, I needed the DAW MIDI sync to be sent to the synth. (You analog guys know what I am talking about). Well, it turns out, in Windows (not sure about Apple OS), a MIDI port (In/Out) can only be opened once. The...

I think Behringer is releasing a lot, but from what I have read, they have been in design for several years.

I have only dabbled with the green screen, so I am not an expert. I think they LEDs on stands that you can adjust and at least two, probably three to you can get the light even. (Like no shadows). Amazon has many of them. Also, believe it or not, those PodCasters on YouTube has some very good...

I just saw Rob's post. My update. I have to say, unless you want to really go deeeeeeeep, hardware synths are not a slam dunk. I am just finally after a couple of weeks starting to figure out how the hell it works. I mean, LFOs, modulators, patch panning (16), turning off voices, etc. I mean...

There are plenty here that will help you much more. But the video editing software, there are many that really doesn't cost too much. I was using MovieStudio for awhile. But there are others, I will let more knowledgeable people give recommendations. Not sure about the 25 foot green screen...

Mix seemed good, a tad bright for my ears, but that might just be me. It seemed like everything fit for that type of music. Nothing negative from me except its brightness. Nice.

Welllllll, I have been working with the UB Xa D (so I ma clear ;) for a couple of weeks. I really think it is pretty cool, tons of sounds and 100to XX potential output. I am using it more or less like a VSTi. But, it is pretty cool. Example, it is 16 voices, I can split the voices into two...
