Just got done with this one. Let me know how the mix sounds. Thanks! http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8351562

I was a little curious, how do you guys go about arranging the track listing of songs in your album? Do you arrange it by theme or how well the songs flow together? Should singles be somewhere near the top? I'm thinking that the good songs might be somewhere in the beginning/middle because...

I read a suggestion about using a pencil for plosives. What's the best way to position the pencil? I put a rubber band around the pop-filter and then inserted the pencil vertically parallel to the middle of the microphone. Will that work or would it be better if I applied the pencil directly to...

I'm trying to figure out how to get a similar sound to these vocals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fv-g6vT1uQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHOj622NMwo It has a very rich bassy sound in the low notes and has a good tone with the higher notes. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to...

Some test tracks, does the EQ on the vocals sound fine? I've been playing around with the EQ/compression settings to see which settings work. I want to see if I'm heading in the right direction. Thanks! We are the World http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8204509

I decided to do a dance remix of one of my pop songs. Here's what I've got so far...let me know what you think and of any suggestions! http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8183449

Hey, just wanted some feedback on this rough temp mix. Someone said the hi-bell sounding sound in the background was too much. What do you think? http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7683924

I haven't been using buses, and have had tracks with maybe 5 - 10 effects each. Now, I've noticed a lot of skipping, even after I have frozen the tracks on Cubase. I'm thinking of just converting the individual tracks into wavs (with the effects), so the effects won't cause any more lag. How...

I was wondering...when preparing do have your CD duplicated, how do you go about doing so? I mean, sure it sounds simple at first since you can burn the CD at your computer then ship it out to the duplication house, but home-burned discs aren't exactly known to be reliable. I wouldn't want to...

Just out of curiousity, when preparing to send files to be mastered, should you leave the mix as is or can you EQ the final mix? I find the audio to sound much more pleasant after EQing, but are they going to do that? Also, do you burn the files as wavs on a data disc?

Hey everyone, Here's a very rough clip of a song I'm working on right now. It's a ballad and I'm learning how to stylistically sound more "pop" vocally (as opposed to my classical training). Any feedback and tips on the pop style would be appreciated. :D http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8010286

I have a question. There's a modern Spanish song that I'm interested in making an English version of. For anyone's that dealt with derivative works, when I contact the publisher, would I have to pay any upfront fees or would they just tack on something to the royalty charges? Also, I know that...

It occured to me that I might be doing something wrong. When I'm laying down the vocal tracks, I usually have two tracks that I use for the vocals with. I alternate the vocal clips in between the two tracks to help smooth out the transition between phrases from different takes while retaining...

I came across the software Guitar Pro. What does it do? Does it create realistic guitar sounds like Virutal Guitarist or is it just a notation software? Thanks!

I was playing around with the plug-ins on Cubase and found something called "StereoEnhancer". What exactly does that do? Is it for mastering? If so, what are some good presets to use? (I tried out the "Mastering - Larger than Life" preset and it did seem to add something I can't outright...

Does anyone put compression on the finished mix? Is this typically done. I wanted a way to make the mix louder while preventing the high points from clipping. Here's a track I used compression on: http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7540892 Does it sound alright? Thanks! :D

For anyone who has used the Harry Fox Agency (HFA) Songfile system before, if they can only license a certain percentage of a song (i.e., 40% of a given song), what are you supposed to do and how are you supposed to pay royalties? The same goes for songs unlicensed by the HFA. Are you supposed...

OK, so now that my first pop LP is finally almost done...I'm trying to get some opinions. I'm aiming for the young adult 18 - 35 demographic and am trying to which songs you guys like. Here are the choices: Run (temp vocal track) Pop/Rock http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7627902 Say...
