    Devil movie choir sample

    Thanks, Paj - why do I never find out about this. All I see under My Account is Mark Knight and Rene Amesz. And a Sonivox promo. I'm really not pleased with the support I"ve gotten from these folks. I wonder how to get these expansions? They don't even appear in the Store in VIP ... Timbo

    Devil movie choir sample

    Thanks for the props. I used mostly the synths that cam with the AKAI Advance I got: Vacuum pro, Hybrid, Loom and xpandi. They are certainly aggressive and with the pro tools vsts that AKAI gave out free last year, they fit the bill for that album. Now if I could only sing. :)

    Thoughts On Developing This Song?

    I like the song! Regarding the playing, it's rough and you can do a better job playing/recording it. Like getting rid of the mistakes, etc. Lyric wise, I love what you've done - how you've mixed the poisons of alcohol alongside a bad relationship with a beautiful woman. Kudos to you! I feel...

    original song COME TO ME by Mason Robbie Project

    I like the guitar sounds that you put together. Vox are enjoyable, lyrics are cool, as are the chorused vox. Bass is good, not over powering. To me the drums are too dry and fake sounding, it's hard to get past them. Timbo

    Inserting soft synths & plugins

    If it's really playing over and over, it sounds like you're looping. Is there a yellow line at the top that demarks the start and end of a loop? Do they show up in the midi data of a brand new midi track? Before you've recorded anything? So many questions!

    Fantasy and Reality

    I like this. Nice imagination on this song. Bass sound - great Drums = maybe a touch too much verb Vox = places where it's too far back The synth that's got the beat = bring a touch back, just a touch Love the attached at the hip - at the heart = wonderful hook Love this, thanks for sharing...

    Album Intro - 'Terra'

    I think the final bump killed the original link, but what do I know? Songwise, it's took a long time to get to the point, sort of like the way Shine On took. In fact, it reminds me of it a bit. I hear a lot of conflict between the 2 panned guitars - they are masking each other. Too much in the...

    High and Dry cover (Beginner recording/mixing engineer)

    Difficult song to cover, kudos for being brave! I was prepared not to like this mix, but I did. A couple of things to fix: bass is a touch overpowering, unless that was your intent likewise for the drums and rhythm guitar (I was good with the distorted guitar) watch your low end don't get me...

    Melodyne v. Autotune

    I get the cheapo version of Melodyne with Sonar X3. On the latest Melodyne update, I watched the video of the full version and was blown away on what you can do with instrument tracks.

    Devil movie choir sample

    I didn't know where to put this question. I'm looking for samples like those choirs in old horror movies like The Omen, where the choirs are doing a "Dominuuus" and all that fun stuff. The title is the search term that I've been using and I'm not getting any results, free or otherwise. Any...

    Dumb question about hiss

    Okay, I get it thanks. Let me have a look. This has been a problem for me for some time, but never thought to mute everything. Tim

    Dumb question about hiss

    The hiss is in the mixdown, I've not isolated it but I think it happens when my mix is too quiet (peak at less than -20dB) and I have to add gain in the "mastering" stage.

    Dumb question about hiss

    Terrific advice, as always. Let me look into these solutions. Thanks, Timbo

    Dumb question about hiss

    I was hoping you wouldn't say that.

    Dumb question about hiss

    So you guys have taught me how to put a gate at the beginning and end of a song to cut out hiss and noise that is audible when I turn up the gain. I'm going to ask for another piece of advice: how to do the same when there is an intro with a synth (for example) that comes in quietly. The noise...

    Question on the last 2 Bowie/Visconti productions, The Next Day and ★

    I understood. There is another track on the album besides where you hear really raspy breathing on it as Bowie exhales. I thought it odd.
