Since the studio computer bombed and I have no way of replacing or rebuilding it financially, my music has tanked. I just don't feel like even practicing. This funk has got to die. I need to keep writing and playing music. I just go from week to week at church, playing piano or bass or drums...

The first clip is crisp. I enjoy the little subtle things that go on in your playing. There are little harmonics, and pick strikes coming through even in the mix. When the chords opened up in towards the end I was reminded of Rush's Fly By Night album tonewise. Very nice. I don't think I'll...

That really does cut a mix well. Fits the style of the song. Really love nick's voice on that track. I know, it's about the guitar tone, but credit where credit's due. :) That amp is not harsh or piercing, and stands out in the mix without competing. Very well done. I assume from the solo/mix...

Yes. Marshal Crunch 3 nice tones. Clear, biting without being grating, should punch through a mix very well.

It still amazes me the difference in clarity that a true LP gives. You can listen to specific strings. POA* - It may just be the way you played the clip, but the Mesa had a brighter "pop" to it that made the high strings ring out (after the initial chug, where the chords go up and there's...

I'm with Robus. I'd like to hear what that would sound like with all things being equal and the Master at 8 or 9...It's just lacking that ballsy Mesa sound. Push some air and let's hear it. :D

Despite the criticisms, I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Never a fan of the Beatles :ducks thrown objects: but I've always at least found them interesting. Agree that Sir Paul could come up with some great bass tones in a day and age where there were very few variables in bass tone... It is...

As long as the bar is short enough that the chord doesn't decay, that would work...or you could automate an attenuation to compensate.

Agree with all the above. One of the most important things that a mix engineer has to do is decide what is important where, and bring the listeners' attention to that thing at that moment. That doesn't necessarily mean raising the gain...I've watched a few pro sessions, and just as an example...

If Cubase will use old soundfonts, it's possible. A lot of them used a looped sample which could hold indefinitely. You'll have to shop around for them and see if Cubase can support them. Most were garbage sound, but if you can find a VST that can play them, I'll get you a copy of a few of the...

I wrote 12 that I kept last year. Took weeks to get all the ideas. Some days on piano, some on acoustic, some on electric. Took months to get all the tracks recorded. Took more months to get to decent mix and add the "extras". Been tweaking on them since January and I'm getting help elsewhere as...

Necrothread detected...ABORT! ABORT! :laughings: I'd pipe in, but it would be useless at this point.

Bring it, bud! We'd love to hear. I posted acoustic tones not too long ago. Not the idea behind the thread, but it IS guitar tone. No one was offended. Got some good feedback.

Excellent work all around, Taras. I love how the eq'd guitars give space to the vocal. It's really obvious between the un-eq'd and eq'd takes. Not a fan of the monotone fizz in the raw heavy guitar clip, but it doesn't seem to affect the final mix. Love the song. Still can't get enough of your...

Yes, if money ever clears up an MIM strat is close to the top of the list... ???? #36 on my view is the Marshall...???? Ah, it's my #34. Found it. I'll give a listen OOoooh, that thing is suh-weeet! $500...have to find one in a pawn or craigslist if I'm going to afford one, and it probably...

As I read back through, Ray, I read (and I may be misinterpreting) that you like the Mesa and not the TE, so my ears may not be lining up with yours. I certainly liked the Mesa in the mix (as I sated) and that is, after all, what counts. :) Did I miss the post with the TM and SG? I only heard...

Even going in knowing that this was an SG/Marshall, with all the sweetness and distinctive flavors that I expected, I was not let down. That is a brilliant tone even for such a guaranteed success combination. I'm going to have to go back to the Tubemeister and the Trace Elliot and see how I...

I really like the Trace Elliot sound on everything you showed. It has a clean and distinct sound. I'd use it with the tubemeister to get some great blends. Tasty stuff there. The solo on the Deluxe sounds very George Harrison while the music is kind of Mark Knopfler (ish)...interesting combo...

I don't know what it is, but I'm not getting something out of that tone. For a Fender through Fender tone, it doesn't have the clarity I'm used to, and seems just a little dull. I mean, I'm not looking for AMAZINGLY bright, but which pickup were you using and can you do that again with a little...

That is a REALLY nice clean tone! Don't even know what to say that you didn't already say... Thanks for sharing. If I ever win the lotto, I'll look into that amp for sure! :)
