ok, so I've seen this debate rage a coupla times on this forum, nd I don't wanna start on fussin an' a fightin, but I wanted a reccomendation. I am cuurently using Cool Edit Pro 2 and an M-Audio Audi Buddy with a Nady SP-5 mic and a crappy soundcard. I wanna upgrade to either an EMU 0404 or...

may be a stupid question, but I just thoughyt I'd check if anyone had any major problems with compatibility? If so (or even if not), any reccomendations for a smiliarly priced card (mainly recording acoustic guitar and vox) cheers heaps in advance :)

damn that sounds so much like a piano . . . haha

jesse is the King compared to this guy . . . . http://www.soundclick.com/bands/writePage.cfm?myType=music&bandid=152688&bandnamesave=mcgun my god - I listened to 'get da slutzz'. there are no words for this shit . . .

wow this is great stuff - it's really been a good last couple of days on the BBS for quality recordings :) listened to step away and a day apart so far. I really like your voice - reminds me a little bit of Jeff Tweedy (which I hope you take as a compliment) :) the instruments you've...

well, I'm listening on computer speakers, and yes the bass sounds too hot, kinda overcrowding the song for me - not enough room mid range for the guits. I could be way off, but my ears tell me turn down the bass. excellent song though, and everything else is generally superb. nice one.

hey chris, cheers HEAPS for the advice - I really value compliments from you after listening to your stuff :D really? who did I sound like? and here I was thinking I was sooo orginial lol :rolleyes: which guits are out of tune on newmarket? the acoustics? I never noticed, dammit...

the answer to this question is HELL YEAH!! I'm still getting into the whole mixing bag and I still would say I'm a musician first, so if you could point me in the direction of some posts with those EQ tips I would be most grateful. at the moment I'm only using an average dynamic mic, so I...

wow . . agreed - I am dwarfed. Those acoustics sound REALLY nice (heaps of clarity and depth) and I really like the deep quality to your voice. It's a great song too. Love the sweeping chorus. I'm listening to it again - shit that mix is so good

I sent ya an e-mail mate :)

I agree with laying down the drums first. I get a basic 4 bar drum beat at the speed I want first, then just loop that, and then I lay down sketch guitar and vocals at the same time - audio quality doesn't matter so long as you can hear it. then I re-do everything properly, but at least then...

I actually really like the song - I think it could really be something, but it does need a bit of work. I prefer the faster tempo, but I agree the slower intro doesn't work - it sounds to distant from the song, and then when the song opens up the listener feels a bit lost. I'd like to hear a...

I listened to 'Songs of Freedom' and 'Deeper'. Well, it's different. Probably liked deeper better - has a creepy, empty feeling to it - there's a lot of bottom end, and stuff at the top but nothing in the middle, which is cool for that song. don't think it works so well for the Redemption...

NOW I get it! wow, lykwydchykyn - I always wondered what your name meant - lykwyd chykyn!! the space makes all the difference :) nice track. I didn't see anything wrong with the vocal delivery - maybe you could sing "over" the note more as at the moment it songs like you're straining for the...

hey thanks vestast, and everyone. I checked out the file sizes and they all conform to your specs, Recording Chick. must be my host - everyone in New Zealand gets it FAST, but everywhere else it varies. sorry to anyone who got burned by the sluggishness . . .

haha ain't it always the way - the dub people want more bass and everyone else wants less. I liked it alot. I'm not really a mixing junkie so I can't really comment on the bass issue, but we have a lot of great dub acts down here in NZ and this stuff stacks up well, so on ya mate.

just joined in, just listened. What's supposed to be so original about this shit? I've heard a million angsty 13 year olds play the same thing better. how old are you again?

I like it alot as it is, but I agree with everyone else - extend it a bit at the end. I also think it has potential to build up even more at the end, maybe adding drums at the second verse? (but simple drums) yeah, it just needs another verse maybe for that big finish good stuff man - keep...

again cheers heaps for the advice guys - this is my first website so I'm kinda learning as I go. thanks, lykwydchykyn - I think I will add something - maybe to the frontpage. also, I'm gonna be a dunce and ask - what are rollovers and hovers? is that when you hang your mouse over an...

hey thanks guys!!!! yeah I think the song isn't quite there yet - I posted to see if anyone had any ideas of where to take it. the song used to have an end bit where I sing over that instrumental ending "I put on a jacket for the cold, and a smile for you", but I cut it cos it seemed out of...
