Thanks RFR. Haven't written or done much in a long while, you're right. This is even an older song, maybe 8 yrs old. The only stuff I've been compelled to write in the last year is 60s/70s style rock, using lots of 7ths and suspended chords etc. I had maybe 10 songs I was working on but it's sat...

I'm sure there's a better spot than what I'm using, I'm just too lazy to move around :) I like having the mic behind my chair so I can just pivot and sing into it and be within reach of my computer and DAW.

Older song redone with things I've learned from HR folk over the years. About the gear: vox - sm7b, SSL EQ, CLA-76, LA2A vox FX - switching in and out a set of distorted vocals, free distortion plugin and EQ guitars - Gibson 2001 studio gothic, hybrit (lepou plugins) head into Amplitube recto...

ha! thanks, there is a feedback plugin now! It's called BC Acufiend and has many options for detailing the feedback. There is one artifact that i can't get rid of, perhaps I'll email the developers about it. It's the sound it occasionally gives off at the very end of an instance of feedback...

good to know about phone speaker sound, i don't check there though i know i should. thank you

Hello everyone, recorded an original for the first time in a couple years. This was an older song I wrote about 9 years ago but never recorded properly. Here's my go at it. I'm using the Digitech GNX3000 for the guitars and bass amps/cabs, mixes of Hiwatt and Bassman models as well as Ampeg...

I have a brand new HP laptop 476 GB storage with 321 currently free after my essentials are installed. Superior Drummer is massive, as I have several expansions (300+GB) . Therefore, I am running the drum program on an external 1TB drive (usb 3.0). Since I also use a wireless mouse and keyboard...

Got a new laptop for music, set up my Scarlett interface and Studio One Pro, and am having issues with levels. Specifically, the guitar plugged into instrument line 1 is very very loud when monitoring my performance - but the actual recorded level is much much lower (maybe 20db). I'm absolutely...

These look really cool, downloading some now. Thanks for sharing

i know you've adjusted levels, but i can't make out any of the vocal lines...? there's a lot of low mids in them, i think, and they are unclear to me. or i'm just getting old. could be that. :) rest of the tracks sound great

cool thanks a lot for listening and the feedback

dude that thing is very trashed. lots of issues, i think I have a post about it in the equipment section. put my new one in there. but it was my dad's from the 70s, so going to keep it. he passed 20 yrs ago and i have that and an even older classical guitar (which is held together by duct...

Oh crap.. I wrote my old acoustic. It's actually a brand new Larrivee ? my fault. Only had it a few months , used to writing sigma. Ha

Oh cool thanks. Bit of EQ in there and maybe 3db of CLA76 compression on them too. Plus a few things on the master bus.

Sm7B about 12 inches away from halfway between 12th fret and sound hole. Kept the foam cover on the mic, like usual. Not a great sounding room, it gets a little much in the 1-3k range on guitar and vocals.

I use Melodyne and I can also apply a general setting to the entire file if I want. Any % between 1-100%, it'll move the detected sounds that much closer to a whole note. Sometimes I'll use it in that manner for a verse, like a 30% nudge, and other times I'll manually move a few notes around. It...

I agree that I think it's a tool to use, like most other in the toolbox. Personally, I frequently have a take where the phrasing, inflections, vocal fry etc are all there and sound nice but it's a little flat, so I'll nudge it up. Like any of the tools, too much of one thing can be bad. I don't...

Listening on SenHD280 phones. Very nice! Only thing is what about having the second set of vocals panned to a side? Sounds really awesome, and if it's identical to the original then I get it, I just think it would add to that section a little by having them spread apart from the main vocal a...

Eh, it's what came out, def didn't think too hard about it. I had a small feeling not being 100% to the original might strike a chord on here... its' one of those tunes that ppl who really like it know every intricacy and inflection. I get what you're saying and thanks for listening and commenting.

Ah ya gotcha, makes sense. I get it. I admit I don't know it super well, so he's certainly right.
