    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    And yet MA is still insistent that he only hears it when he plays Am chord. Sell the guitar and move on.

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Here's a question for you. Do you hear that "resonance" in the audio clip, or do you only hear it when you are playing the guitar/behind the sound hole projection?

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Fine. You're not keen on taking it to a luthier. I suggested it because a reputable luthier using a borascope could easily locate an inner crack lying just beneath the surface finish of the guitar. Hope you sort it all out.

    2008 Martin D28 - horrible resonances

    Take the guitar to a qualified luthier who might possibly sort out the root cause.

    Acoustic Guitar Strings

    After experimenting, Elixer won the string contest for me. YMMV

    Making money off idle studio space!?

    I have a similar, TC Helicon Harmonizer which may or may not be the same model you have. My unit has a "thicken button" on it, which I only toyed with once or twice. The harmonizing features works quite well, but as you stated, it sounds decent on headphones, but not so great live, or recording...

    Live to tape.

    1971 Tom Dowd recorded the Allman Brothers live at Fillmore East to tape. According to Dowd, @ wikipedia "It was a good truck, with a 16-track machine and a great, tough-as-nails staff who took care of business,"

    Acoustic Guitar Strings

    I restrung the Yairi with D'Addario phosphor bronze EJ16 strings tonight. Prior to re-stringing, I played my normal warmup with the old Elixer strings still on the guitar, and they still sounded good. I should mention that I normally play acoustic guitar using the flesh of my fingers. After...

    double tracking

    Harmonisers or Melodicists? I fall into the Harmonisers category. It's always been easy for me to sing harmony...even to a song I've only listened to once with a single vocal.

    double tracking

    How is double tracking a vocal track better than copying the track and offsetting it by a few milleseconds?

    Acoustic Guitar Strings

    I appreciate all of the responses. I ordered a variety of D'Addario, GHS, and Elixir guitar strings that I am quite familiar with to experiment with further on my acoustic guitars to attain the best guitar/string marriage that brings out the best sound on an individual guitar basis. I'm...

    Acoustic Guitar Strings

    For the past 15 years (or more) I have exclusively used Elixer strings on all of my acoustic guitars with good results, but recently it occurred to me that I shouldn't be single minded to the extent of using a particular brand of strings on all my acoustic guitars. I'm at the point of purchasing...

    Music industry changes?

    On that point...I agree with your assessment of the overall state of music these days. There's nothing new or ground breaking at all.

    Music industry changes?

    If you are indeed researching changes within the music industry....why limit changes to the past two or three years? You need to broaden the scope of your research by at least 60 years (possibly 70 years) to attain an understanding of how it is artists like Robert Johnson, BB King, Chuck Berry...

    Old Tennessee -Final Mix-

    It's a real good song! The pause wasn't necessary.

    how do i fix so my music doesnt sound so boring and the same melody

    At the 48 second mark, I hear (in my head) a sweet female vocalist beginning to sing. The first 47 seconds is simply the beginning of a larger piece of music and storytelling. Use your imagination to go beyond the beginning. Songs are no different than books are. Every good book has a...
