    Triad (acoustic instrumental)

    @rob aylestone ,Thanks Rob I appreciate you weighing in. @TalismanRich , Yes that was the song. I didn't put it on Soundclick and removed it from Soundcloud. (running out of room on my free accounts) It's probably stored away somewhere on a flash drive. I may just redo it at some point , I...

    Deja Vu anyone? - Female Alternative Rock

    Enjoyed the song and mix ! I thought she needed a little more "air" on her voice , but it seemed to get better as the song progressed. I imagine it's setting somwhere around -12 luffs. I think it would be a little cleaner a couple of DBs quiter. The auto tune sounded fine to me during the mix ...

    Triad (acoustic instrumental)

    @TalismanRich , sorry about that.. I used to do Triad as well doing solo gigs. Great song ! I just named this one "triad" because of using guitar mandolin and cello as the 3 main instruments. I rember once starting to post a CSN song , but you posted the same song on the same day. I don't...

    Triad (acoustic instrumental)

    Thanks guys ! @JAPOV , Funk is probably my favourite genre to actually play. I don't listen to a lot of it , but seem to throw some in even when I'm not intending to. @packrobottom , I appreacite that 3d comment. I used to get wide mixes but they weren't immersive at all. The little...

    From The Start (Laufey cover) - mix feedback

    Yes , that was the song. I went back and listened again. There seems to be some nice improvement in the lastest mix. I failed to mention in my first responce how good the guitar playing was , and it sounded even better this time around. I love playing Maj 7th type chord patterns. Don't know how...

    Triad (acoustic instrumental)

    I haven't played mandolin or cello for a while. I thought I'd do an instrumentle while in between vocal songs. All crits , suggestions for improvement are welcomed. -mild remix- Thank You .. mark https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14708495

    Bad Moon Rising -Final Mix-

    @Serendipity Records , @Ujn Hunter Thanks for the listen and comments ! @Papanate , Thanks .. I used to play in a CSN cover trio. I'll for sure take that as a compliment. Stephen Stills had a pretty big influence on my early playing. I guess some of it stuck. @Manslick I thought of it as pretty...

    EggShells song/mix feedback

    Very Creative ! I Really liked all the sudden changes in this. I got a Bowie feel in one section then moved on to someone else. The vocal treatment worked well for this song. I'm on the fence about the bass volume. I thought it could come down in a few spots but not Really sure where. Enjoyed...

    From The Start (Laufey cover) - mix feedback

    Cool song ! I agree with Everything that's been said. Honestly.. I would just have her re-sing the first half. Listening to the song that played afterwards , it's apparent that she has the chops to pull this one off a little nicer. Enjoyed it .. mark

    Time Machine

    Sounding Cool .. I like the psychedelic sounding guitars ! As far as suggestions , I think your kick and bass need some attention. The kick isn't cutting thru the mix and it's getting lost. The bass track just needs some cleaning up on timing. For some reason it sounds like it's leaning a...

    What does Cakewalk do that Reaper doesn't do and vice-versa?

    One thing Reaper Can do is open up Cakewalk project files. This is with the help of azslo3 who wrote a converter called ReaCWP. This is nice to know in case Cakewalk by Bandlab ever goes completely belly up. I only used Reaper for a short time before going back to Cakewalk. FWIW , I don't know...

    Little electric clicky noises recording DI bass

    From the wavforms posted , it seems to me like you don't even have to be playing it to get those clicks. I would just start recording and start doing things like wiggeling the jack , turning off and on anything in your room that could be introducing interfearence. Try different wall sockets...

    Time in a bottle (Jim Croce cover)

    I used to play out doing the solo singer songwriter stuff , and I was Very comfortable with it. I recently tried to record a song without going thru all of the click track and retakes like I do now (using Just a guitar and vocals) . It didn't take me long to scrap the entire project. It's...

    "Running Free", new tune i'm working on now

    The present mix sounds Great to me . I'm sure you will make further changes until you are completely satisfied. I thought you vocal harmony's were Fantastic ! I Really liked the energy , and in a few spots the "Yes" feel you got. Enjoyed it .. mark

    Bad Moon Rising -Final Mix-

    Hello , I got a remix done this morning. I'm sure (as always) that I'll make some minor changes. I won't bump the song back up if I do. I'm pretty satisfied with it now and going to get away from it for a while.. Thanks to All of you who listened and gave such helpful suggestions and comments...

    Bad Moon Rising -Final Mix-

    @TripleM , Thanks for the comments. I'm remixing now , It will probably be a few days before I'm finished. I've taken the harshness out of the cymbols , that helped a lot. I've thinned the bottom on the low instrument . It's actually an "electric piano" . I played with low notes for the effect...

    Bad Moon Rising -Final Mix-

    @HumanPlanet , I Really appreciate the listen and suggestion! I've actually snuck in a couple of remixes. I put some more highs and presence in the lead vox on the last mix (may need more). On a few listens the high hat was bothering me as well . I couldn't be sure if it was my headphone...

    Bad Moon Rising -Final Mix-

    Hello , I've been playing around with this for a while but just got it recorded. I've always thought of the song as a pretty "dark" but have only heard rockabilly versions. Anyway .. if you hear something that really needs fixing , I'm all in. I Just did this for fun and the satisfaction...
