Hello Folks, I'm almost finished a new collaboration project and when I sat down to update a mix I turned on my DELL Inspiron 530 & the screen stayed blank while the machine seems to try to boot in 5 second cycles. No beeps and an amber light at font power button. If I disconnect...

Sorry - it seems to have generated a double post.

I've mucked about with re-recording & remixing this track for about 5 years. I did a complete reworking with LifeLyrics (a sometimes denizen of the clinic) which worked really well as her harmonies and main vocal were excellent. In the end I decided to end the cycle with a vocal closer to the...

I thought I'd let you know that Nak. & his bandmates in D'ACCORD have released their 2nd album this time with the Karisma Records imprint. The album is called Helike & is really true to Prog aesthetics, particularly as it consists of two tracks (side 1 & side 2 of an LP). You can see/hear a...

MP3 Player SoundClick http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26003421/Silent_waltz_v0-20.mp3 Hello folks, The link will take you to soundclick's streamer for Silent Waltz. The song has been around for 5 or so years & recently I did a remix and had that mastered by Jan Ohlhorst of finemastering. I'll add a...

Hello, I posted this in the digital section as well incase there was some related expertise there. Here we go... I've been using a combo of Cakewalk Pro Audio 9.3 & an INCA 8/8 card for about a decade now - flawless operation across four computers & from 98 to XP (still in XP). I...

Hello, I've been using a combo of Cakewalk Pro Audio 9.3 & an INCA 8/8 card for about a decade now - flawless operation across four computers & from 98 to XP (still in XP). I recently decided to try REAPER as it's good for callaborative work. After installing Reaper & running the set up I...

New stuff from RAMI, Joe & Greg. There are a few of you out there that need to lift to the challenge. I'm feeling spoilt but not satiated by the stuff happening in the clinic. I need MORE. Naturally I have downloaded the new stuff for repeated plays.

I've been battling with WMM under XP for a couple of years & get so far into a project before finding it freezes and I have to shut down the comp & reboot to get going again only to find it happens again & again. I did a fair bit of research into the problem & the best fix I've found, thus far...

You've read the lyrics, you've heard the mix & the master now you have the opportunity to watch an amateur vid of it, or not. That's Ido Joey & Greg L to all those who don't know them (how could you not?). Comments, suggestions, critiques etc gleefully accepted.

Here's a new lyric I started last week. I was reading The Doors of Perception by Aldos Huxley and was struck by his excellent yet strangely formal written English. I recalled the date of its writing and the fact that much/most written English was formal and not a little wordy back then. I...

Hello Folks, This song had a little success in a little known popularity poll hidden under a bushell in a galaxy far, far away. The version that attracted that snippet of attention was a preliminary mix. Below is the final mix and master for those couple of people who expressed an...

This song is rather ancient. I wrote the majority of it in 1976 with a little bit of help from eric Drabwell (he showed me the simple G & Bm chords). I added the intro & outro 32 years later. Terry added new lyrics and melody then Kim (my missus) added the original lyric & melody as a counter...

The vid is the same as before but the audio should be higher quality and is the Jan Ohlhorst Stem Mastered version uploaded as a 320 MP3. Probably better to watch it direct from Utub rather than in a small wondow in this thread as the difference in audio is the point. YouTube - ‪Pygmy Beat...

Being that Joe, Gerry & Greg did such a grand job on this song I decided to get it mastered professionally to do justice to the extra effort the chaps put into it. This version is 'stem" mastered so the ME had more scope & flexibility to do the job. Here's a link to the s/click streamer...

I had been playing my guitar for about an half hour through my Marshall Super Bass MkII when the amp blew a fuse. I replaced the fuse & turned the beats on & it blew straight away. Slow blow 1 amp as recommended on the head. I used an 8ohm 200w eton single cone cab a Tubecube power sink set at...

I received an email from Zounds today. The lead item is the Rode NT1A at US$225. I thought that sounded OK but, being that it's supposedly an Australian company I thought I'd suss out the price at the biggest online gear sellers in Oz. I found the mic. Now, the AUS$ is worth a smidgen more that...

I've had the little Yamaha FX500 since it came out in the late 80's (I think). My brother -in-law located & bought me an FX900 rack mount unti earlier this year. Most of the presets are completely different to the 500 but most of the operation is the same except for the availability of stereo in...

Hello Folks, I was going to wait until I had this virtually finished before posting but decided the demonstrate the FLAC option for those interested. THere are two versions of this track to download & listen to. a) the 320 MP3 compression - which is pretty good quality in...

Being that audio quality is reeasonably important when critically listening to a mix ought we consider posting non stream adio as flac files? It is claimed to be "lossless" and doesn't compress as heavily as MP3. Increased compression ratios in FLAC (0 to -8) garner diminishing returns in...
