Point taken Garry, Ya ever visited JPF? Where lyrics need to stand on their own, regardless of music? It was the first songwriter site that I ever visited. And, it re-iterated that it's a b*#*h to try to frame a hip roof on an out of square foundation. Good post, Bill

Some lines have been changed. Any better? Anybody got any other fixes to suggest?

Afternoon Garry, Nice groove. Liked the harmonies. Couldn't understand the lyrics well enough to associate the title. It's probably my 50mumblemumbleish ears. Maybe post the lyrics (either here or at NoWhere)? FWIW Also, server disconnected 3/4 of the way through. :( But, I got enough of it to...

Let go-edited for lyrical content How do all, This little ditty popped up on 6/02/04. Anybody want to nitpick on it before I develop it further? Let Go ©Bill Assumpcao 2004 We ain't no angels (and) Our wings ain't left or right (If) We agree to disagree There ain't no need to fight (chorus)...

G'morning Layla, I think that this is one of those questions that only you have the answer to. But, here is some food for thought; Have you read the book "Zen Guitar" by Philip Toshio Sudo? Excellent bathroom reading (short chapters). Maybe you're writing what you're meant to write. Could be...

Mmmmmmm....bacon. :D

Mornin Steve, Beef's still cooking. :) I'm just hoping to get the balance right on this drum machine before I track any keepers. Thanks for your time, Bill

Mornin all, I been playin wiff a new song. Just about to lay down "keeper tracks". But, my son says "Dad, that snare is annoyingly loud". Well, his ears haven't taken the years of electric guitar and skillsaw abuse that mine have. So, would anyone care to enlighten me on the drum balance? If...

Mornin rpe, I do exactly like you. I've got a Yamaha acoustic, an old Tele, a Squire bass, a 3/4 size fiddle, an I don't know what mandolin and a piano that are always out (I'm too lazy to go lookin for stuff when I want to noodle). My LP and J-45 are in there cases waiting for "special...

Mornin Layla, If it's any consolation, most people that have been playing the guitar for a year are still struggling with just trying to play a clean F or Bb. :) When you play the Bb, C7, F progression are you using the barre C7 or the open C7 (open C chord with the pinky on the Bb, 3rd fret, G...

Mornin Dave, Exactly how I felt when I found n-Track. Now, if I could just as easily acquire some talent. :( Have fun, Bill

Say hey A, None of the above. "All Alone" seems like the meat of the song. Both parties think that they're all alone. But, they're not because that is what they have in common. They both belong to the all alone club. Of course, on the other hand, what do I know? Bill

How do CD, On my version of the big n, I have two rows of buttons up on the toolbar. Bottom row of buttons, seven buttons from the right, next to the "view track mixer" button is the "output VU meter" button. Try it.........you'll like it, Bill

Yo Teej, Thanks for the mini-primer on high pass filters. WOW, what a difference! Cutting the bass guitar @ 50 even made a difference in what I thought were intonation issues with the vocals. Who'd a thunk? A conflict of frequencies? However, cutting @ 150 for the vocals took some of the body...

Yo Hoss, I would never say "Your band sucks, get out of music while you still can!" Cause then you could say that to me. And if it wasn't for musicians like me, there'd be nobody to compare the good ones to. Bill

How do Hoss, I don't have any tips or tricks, just an opinion. To me, the guitar overwhelmed everything else in places. FWIW Cause afterall, what do I know? Bill

Electric: 1978 LesPaul Standard Older than dirt Fender Tele (3 pickups) 1974 Mesa Mark II Accoustic: Yamaha FG 401 (beater) 1968 Gibson J-45 (square shouldered) with undersaddle transducer Bass: Old as dirt Conqueror (?) hollow body w/humbucking pickup Squier P-bass (my son's) Fender Bassman...

Yo Chuck, Did you manage to stop the bleeding??? Hope so, Bill

Yo Chuck, From the n-track PDF manual: The most common problem at this stage is the so-called “bleeding” of the first track into the second track: if the soundcard mixer is not properly set, the newly recorded track will re-record the preceding tracks, thus destroying the isolation...

Couldn't he just run straight into the power amp of the bass amp? Bypassing the pre-amp? Just a thought, cause what do I know? Bill
