Try plugging in another guitar and cord, eliminate those first, since that would be easiest. Your problem is almost certainly a bad ground.... just hope it's not your new amp.

YAY!!!! Thanks, Mr.Strat. Thanks for the affirmation, and all the great advice. I'll turn the leads up a bit, that will sound better. Maybe do a little EQ on the snare on the outtro. To make the song build, and "soar," what would you think about a more pronouced build-up in the bridge, and...

Shoot.... you're gonna have like the "secret weapon." That's awesome! :D A $2000 rig for $650 ain't a bad deal. Peace! ~Shawn

Yep.... did you plug your amp into an outlet different than you normally do? That was probably it.

Yay!! Can I help?? We could do an entire collab of us depressed 40 year olds! ;)

That's cool mang! I'm not gonna lie... it pretty much rocks... :D The drums are a rockin'... normally I don't like to hear much of a ride bell, but it works well here, The guitars sound great... what amps didja use? The vocal harmonies were sweet! I liked the way you arranged them, so that they...

OK, so.....nice song! I diggit, truly. I know nothing about Garageband, other than it comes free on a mac, and record digital audio in a multitrack fashion....so the suggestions I'm going to make may or may not be possible in GB, I haven't a clue. If they aren't, then I bet your firestudio came...

Thanks Joe! I was thinking about adding a third harmony on there. I'll try it and see! As far as what amp I use, that's always a toss up. The main rhythm guitars on this one were recorded with an all tube Mesa Boogie Express 5:25, straight in. The little lead lines in the beginning, I don't...

OK.... you guys are starting to worry me here.... now you're having a virtual beer?? I think I need to talk to all your wives..... tell em to kick you out of the house every once in a while, and tell you to go to the bar and have pizza and beer.... :D

I got that way playing covers :p

Actually, the changes are C#, A and B bass notes. That would certainly imply a C#m. The problem is that you've shifted the whole tonal center. When you play in C#m, you are actually playing in E major... Your song here is B, with it's relative minor or G#m. You've changed the key for the solo...

Yep.... vox are too loud.... and the BGV need some de-essing.... maybe the lead vox too. Thanks Mike! BY the way... many of the songs I write have that U2 vibe.... I love it, but it only goes so far.... sooner or later you gotta look at something else.... which is hard for me, because I really...

Nice and loud mix. That's good. Singer sounds pretty good, kind of like George Micheal. The drum loops get grating in a hurry. I like the melody of the song, and the chord progression. I'd find a new drum samples.... maybe somthing kind of low-fi, sort of hip-hop instead of the house loops you...

Thanks Ray! I can't for the life of me figure out why the bass is wobbling in the beginning. I think it's something in the original recording... that somehow his bass was swelling/wobbling like that.... I have no idea why/what. I've compressed the dog pooh out of it and it's better than when I...

Thanks! Thanks Mike.... nope.... not really looking to "make it," I'm way too old and sexy for that :D My only goal is to perhaps inspire somebody to worship. Thanks for your take on the song. I really really appreciate it!! Peace! ~Shawn

Here's one of my songs. The rhythm guitars were recorded with my Mesa Express 5:25 right after I got it. I think the guitars are a bit thin, but they sit well in the mix, I think..... :confused: What do you think? http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=14838 Peace! ~Shawn

Here is a band I produce. Most of them are teens, some still in high-school. http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?id=14837 Peace! ~Shawn

That'll do it!

Right channel louder.

Sweet! Yay! :D:D:D:D Report back when you get 'er in yer hands!
