    Girl from the North Country

    Very Impressive ! I Love your picking style. Great job on the capture , I Really struggle with a guitar/vocal song like this. Excellant vocals. I agree with TripleM about the harp panning . Since you have a seperate take of it , I would add some more reverb and try to widen it a little...

    Dobro , I think the groove you've got going on here is Fantastic ! Very creative , you two work Very well together. I Love both vocal parts , she is dead on with the backing and harmony fills and I Really like the "airy" parts you pick up when you go low. Nice bass as well. After getting the...

    -Tight Wire- New Mix/Master

    @dobro , That is a Great question ! To be honest , I'll call one done after fixing Everything that has been "bothering" me about it. That is normally after I've started another project and Really tired of listening to the one in question. At that point it's done as far as commenting about it on...

    -Tight Wire- New Mix/Master

    @stratmonkee , Thanx , I've got a new version that should be done soon. I'm actually tuned to EBEABE. I acomplished this on the high strung guitar with a partial capo on the 2nd fret covering the ADG strings. Regular guitar I just used a full capo with DADGAD tuning on second fret. The little...

    -Tight Wire- New Mix/Master

    Thanks @dobro , I've been building up the first melody section and brought it back in later in the song. I whacked the end of my index finger on my fretting hand a couple of days ago with a filet knife. I'm having a hell of a time finishing it up , but making progress. Won't be too long .. ms

    @dobro , @DM60 , @TripleM , Thanks guys for the listen and comment. I've made a few minor changes , but I really don't know where this one is going yet. I'm not happy at all with it at this point. I've been tied up all week but , I now have some time to get back on it. I'll update it pretty...

    Acoustic guitar, gut/nylon strings, standard (not classical) neck profile

    I found a Godin LaPatrie ce concert (hibred) on Craigslist for $140. The case was worth that much. Thin neck profile with a pretty narrow nut for a nylon guitar. Deep cutaway with dual pickups. Fantastic guitar if you can find one.

    - Fast Car - Tracy Chapman cover -REMIX 2-

    Hey Guys , thanks for the comments and suggestions. The link now reflects mix 2. I did some drum adjusting and got the kick flowing better. I also dropped it a good bit on the 1 beat. @dobro , I think that was the main reason the attack on the left plucked nylon guitar was so loud and abrupt. I...

    - Fast Car - Tracy Chapman cover -REMIX 2-

    @keith.rogers , @famous beagle , @Papanate , Thanks guys for the listen,comments and suggestions. I think I'm going to just re-record the vox tracks. They were done several days apart and as @Papanate said they are lacking confidence. I was actually reading the lyrics in several takes. I did...

    "Something in the Woods" - Indie folk

    Beautiful Soundscape. You used all lof my favorite instruments for this genre , and did them Well. As far as the intro , I liked it , but I would try dropping 0:22-0:26 . It would still have the lead in to the vox and still not be rushed. I Loved the song and performance. Very Impressive ...

    From the Very Start

    Nice .. I Really like the singers "airy" voice in this one. I thought the treatment on the pulsing harmony sections was pretty artistic as well. Very nice EQ on All of the backing instruments and the pushed back horn section was a nice touch. Enjoyed it .. Great job on the mix/master mark
