true, your too kind... those other links should work now (pfft, links--who needs em?)

Thanks for the invitation down memory lane! First, I wanna say I hate you guys for being so talented. :D Especially Metalhead28, HangDawg, sile2001, and Tim... your stuff is pretty amazing, first recordings or not. Some Place, Some Time - Recorded in 1993 on Guam while doing an internship at...

It took me a second, but I eventually warmed up to it. :) That's some crazy tremolo action! The vocals sound pretty far off... maybe modify the EQ to bring them closer? It's weird but the vocal treatment in the beginning ("What would you say...") has a Smiths feel to it like how Morrissey...

Sounds like there's a little clipping on the vocals in couple parts... Neat melodic tune--it keeps my interest with the various changes and stops.

That's a nice sounding solo--I like the lilting/bending. Harmony sounds good, too. Nice job. If you can't hear the guitar distortion, then maybe I'm just overanalyzing it. Besides, the addition of the new parts fills it out so I'm not just focusing on the voice and guitar. But here's where...

Honestly, I don't know what would "fix" it but there's some distortion in my ears. For example, on the down strokes... I don't think it has anything to do with the guitar itself or your playing, but more like a drive-volume sort of thing where it's not as clear as it could be. Just my 2...

evhwanabe, I like the clear and clean vocals. It'd be nice to hear the guitar part just as clean, IMHO. Have you experimented with adding any harmonies yet?

Yup and that's why I wondering if I should just try another tube or just chuck the whole thing or start thinking about getting a new one.

Sorry for the newb question... The quality of my TubePRE had been deteriorating for a while so I finally replaced the tube. I didn't use it immediately after the I replaced it and waited a couple months. Now it distorts no matter what--even when the Drive is all the way down. Presonus says...

Great site! I like the meditation metaphor... I will become one with my guitar... :)

Hey Rick Shepherd, the guitar picking sounds nice. The voice is weak IMHO, but I'm sure I'd say "nice" if I heard you live in a cafe or something. :) Maybe try recording the guitar and vocals separately?

Your wife is great. Not only does she listen to your music, but she offers you honest feedback. :) Actually, your voice isn't terrible--I've heard worse--but you tend to lose it in a couple spots. For example, 0:45 where you seem to slide into the note... Maybe try breaking it down into a...

Cool stuff with the banjo. :) BTW, are you playing guitar on the other tracks?

"Last Forever" definitely sounds thrown together compared to your other songs, but one consistent problem really sticks out to me: the vocals tend to be pitchy and uneven throughout. And I'm probably not the right person to talk about the mix, but it sounds really "in your face" where...

I played cello for 6 years in junior high and high school so I know how bad we can really get. :) Nice job.

Awesome song--I'm simply amazed by the level of talent on this board because it doesn't sound like a home recording (or at least what I perceive a home recording to sound like). Not that this site should only have po-dunk artists like myself but... you know what I mean. ;) I like the...

Just gotta put my 2 cents in... This is wonderful stuff. I'm not a classical guitar aficionado or anything, but I'm a fan of Segovia and Parkening and I really appreciate this piece of yours. The arpeggios are amazingly clean... I'm jealous.

roktuk, Nostalgia is lush and nicely layered, and so many changes in tempo. Anti-Anthem is even crazier. Great job--sounds like a lot of energy put into your work! Oh, and I can definitely hear some David Bowie in there at the end. :)

I like it although I'm not personally fond of the electric at the end. I guess the picking at the beginning just sets me up to expect more throughout the whole song. It's a familiar contrast that sounds right. Around 0:30 - 0:57 you guys may be speeding up a bit and then it normalizes when...

grn, that'd be great! I'll PM you and see if we can set that up.
