I've been doing nothing but lurking these forums for the last 2 months because work/life is stupid busy right now and I quite literally have almost no time to post or contribute. I look a this thread almost daily though. How can I not? It's always on page 1. Anyway, had to say Greg, that the...

I overloaded my 57 with too much proximity chuff from a Fender Twin. Sounded terrible. Mids and upper mids with high SPL don't cause my 57 to break a sweat, but some high volume low end heavy clean tones, especially when a lot of air is being pushed causes it to distort badly. Might be specific...

Excellent feedback guys, thanks. It's clear I've got a little more balancing work to do and I'll also take a look at the attack on the bass.

A few weeks back, I needed to replace the programmed drums in this song with real drums for a submission. The first person I thought of was RAMI, and he graciously agreed. He did a great job as I expected he would. As you'll hear, this is not really a simple arrangement, but he absolutely...

No, no! Joking, totally. You know, because the mix I keep bouncing off you has the snare too loud...

LOL... I was going to tell you that your snare is too loud :D Cloudy sense is throughout the tune, not just the cocked wah parts. What sounds "cloudy" to me in my room might sound like perfect "weight" in someone else's room so maybe it's just a translation thing. It's not an overbearing sense...

Cool to hear with vocs, man. Drums are killer. The toms have really great depth. Snare is nice and snappy. Overall vibe that I am getting is that there is a little bit of excess ultra lows that could be cut a little (I'm extremely sensitive to this area right now because I pretty recently did a...

This is kick ass

The mix turned out so good and this tune deserved it. Loved the song from the first moment I heard it. Overall, there are so many interesting things going on that it verges on chaotic at times, but you really rein everything in nicely with great positioning and excellent dynamic control. Not...

Yes, the same in how it is set up, and also smashed, but with different attack and release settings. With "typical" NY compression, the attack is set to specifically let the transient and the "pop" of the note come through, followed by a quick release so that the compression can jump and pump...

Jazz funk indeed. At first I was thinking James Brown, but I eventually came around to... Chicago Mayfield? It is amazing that this is you and your song playing the horns, both because it's just fantastic that the two of you can (and do) do this together, but also particularly in this day and...

Nice sense of clarity and space in this mix. Each element is occupying it's own place and contributing to the overall sound of the mix. One tiny nit to my ears, I think the guitar on the left that comes in after the break about 3/4 through the song stands out a little too much. There are...

Wow, man! Hey, did you do this with Superior Drummer? It must have taken you forever to program that and then sync it up to the video so well. I'm sure I saw a couple spots where you went off but that's okay. Most people probably wouldn't notice it. This must have taken you so long to get your...

The Les Paul Traditional is a "return to form" for Gibson, IMHO. It would be my first choice if I was in the market right now (which I'm not), for reasons already mentioned in this thread so I'll not repeat. Custom shop models are very nice, of course, but generally very expensive. I might be...

3 o' c... what? Good to see a tune posted, Rami. Missed seeing your thoughts around these parts too. I must say that this is a Stones song that I am not familiar with, but I am digging it. I always like your drums sounds, but I am particularly enjoying them on this track. I'm just getting a...

Jealousy sits in a chair looking at a computer screen, wishing to be Bubba po right now...

Wow. That's a very good deal. I have been scanning the local classifieds here (Ontario) for a while and the 410 heads seem to hover around $2000 CAD (which is a little less than $1500 USD), give or take a couple hundred. @Gerg, thanks for sharing the hint on the 2007 model with bubba.

For a 410 head?!?

Nice track. The vocals are coming across as a little harsh and the cymbals are kind of hot, so together they unbalance the overall mix towards the top end. Nice drum sounds. What are you using? Very solid playing across the board. Cymbals seem to be phasing here and there. Could be soundcloud...

Yup, much improved. Nice job!
