    Live concert clip

    From yesterdays show. I had nothing to do with the recording, other than being one of the violinists in the band. This was in a huge cathedral downtown, there are about 25 players on this. For enjoyment purposes only, its one noisy audience.:D This is a piece by Vaughn-Williams called "Fantasia...

    Preparing for mastering

    I have an album in the can ready for mastering. Last time I was kinda disappointed so I want to make sure I do it right: I have the tunes in Sonar. I export to 24bit .wav. What kind of levels should I have??? How much should I leave the ME?

    Song for Kenny G

    Seriously!:D I wrote this song for KennyG. I dont know the guy, nor do I know if he writes all his songs, but I had this idea and I will try and get it to him. The sax part will have more improv, especially the middle section. It wont be as repetitive as it is now. BTW, thats DWillis in the...

    Perpetual Motion

    A work in progress. The strings are fake at the moment, they will all be real. I am struggling with clarity on this ( I think?), there's just a whole lot going on. Any mix or musical comments are welcome. I want to get it nice and purdy before I add the strings. Or maybe I am just stalling.:D...

    Who's the Boss??

    No, not Tony Danza :mad: I am under the assumption that the Producer is the top dog in the food chain for recordings, with the exception of labels/A+R/ inverstors. It this correct? Where does the mixing engineer enter the picture? It is my understanding that the mixing engineer works for the...

    Exporting tracks from Sonar...

    I have a project I will be taking to a pro studio. I am going to make OMF files of all the tracks ( a full CD). I am also going to be prepared with individual .wav files for every single individual track, just in case the OMFs do not work. What is the easiest wasy to do this??? Sure, I know how...

    Mixing a CD: how long?

    Yeah, thats right, you heard right. Gimme YOUR guess as to how many hours it would take to mix a rockish album. Assuming the music was recorded properly, ready to go, with me and an engineer working in a pro studio. How many hours would you allow? I am asking for budget reasons. Well? It...

    OMF files??

    What exactly is an OMF file? It is my understanding that an OMF file can be used by most major software, including Pro Tools if one has the expansion kit. How bout things like automation? Do all the major software types respond to it? I have a project I am doing in Sonar at home. It will be...

    Output levels??

    In Sonar, there is a final?? output level, the output level of my interface ( M-audio Firewire solo). If my mix is how I want it but over 0 db, can I simply turn the fader down on that?? I was reading that there is some disagreement on this, I wish I had a link for what I read. Is there? Do I...
