For those trying out Reaper, one of the first places you should visit is Preferences. That's where you will tell Reaper where to look for your VST's, VSTi's, etc., as well as a ton of other things. YouTube has a BUNCH of vids on using EZ Drummer and Superior Drummer, i.e., tips and tricks and...

Wow. No violinists here? I could have sworn there was one or two around a while back. Wasn't there someone who once played with Transiberian Orchestra or something? Anybody got a recommendation?

It's been a while since I've been around and the board has changed a lot! I couldn't find a section for collab's so I thought (with much prodding from Rami haha) I'd post here and see how much I get yelled at. I have a song that could use a really nice jamming violin, ala Kansas. If anyone is...

Ah, you know, I'm hanging in there. Been busting my hump around here and recording some music when I get the time. Don't get back here much anymore but I get the newsletter every week so I read that and come here when it brings me. You still playing with those bands? Great to see that you're...

Personally I think the 1st version was the best of the bunch but as a whole, the song sucks. Crappy lyrics, crappy recording, crappier performance and that drum machine... sheesh! Get rid of it and get a real drummer to play on your stuff. You should be ashamed that you even call yourself a...

My first guitar was a Monkey Wards Airline which I traded at a flea market type store for a no-name guitar that looked cooler than the Airline. That was about 1968. After that I bought a Les Paul and gave the junker to a friend. I never traded or sold another guitar after that, other than a...

70's era Hammond A-105 and Leslie 21h Speaker NEVER been used in a commercial setting, in other words, BARELY used. $5000 cash $6500 check, money order, cashiers check or ANY other way but cash. __________________

I like it! I'm not thrilled with the kick either. It's not what I'm used to from you but it's there. Man, this is FUNKY! Nice job on the BGV's! Your voice is amazing as always. Snare sounds great. Your lead chops have come a long way! I was in that "protest" mode a year or so ago. There just...

Sounds freakin' GREAT, Joey! I'm curious, though. Did you have him (or did he want to) master for that unGodly volume that everyone hates so much? ;)

Great tune! Listening in cans. The guitars could be spread out a bit more in the audio spectrum. Might let the bass gtr shine through a bit more. Kick does sound good but I'd like to hear a bit more snare and the cymbals are pretty much buried. In fact the whole thing could use a bit of air, but...

Thanks, Guys (and Gal)! Appreciate the listen and the comments. Some of us don't have access to, or funds for a "real" drummer so we do what we can with what we have. I have no plans to release anything I record and I record for fun so it accomplishes what I want. Thanks again!

This is one of my favorite Uriah Heep songs and I've been wanting to cover it for a long time. Not one of their big hits but still a favorite of mine. I took some liberties because I wasn't real fond of the drums (no cymbals????) and the bass guitar in the original. All comments welcome but...

Thanks, Bob! Thanks, Joey! I think I'm going to let this one sit for awhile and take a different approach and see where it gets me.

Thanks, Trump! I had some time this morning to whip out a quick remix. I think I'm getting closer. New mix is in the first post and also here.

Thanks for the listen and the comment, Trump! As I stated in the first post, the song is basically asking, "If you suddenly found out you were going to die and you had time for ONLY one thing to do, what would you do? Would you do something fun? Something you've never done? Would you go back to...

Thanks, Greg! Yep. I have the most trouble with the bass and then the mid-lows and I'm guessing that the problem is related. The drums are a machine and I didn't want to take the time to mess with them since I'm hoping to get some real drums eventually. As for the voice, it IS pitchy but in all...

Ok, this is the first song that I have completed since I switched to Reaper. Just wanna get a feel for how I'm doing. This song is about suddenly finding out that you have time for only one last thing. Would you go do something that was fun? Maybe do something that you always wanted to do but...

Sounds great to me! But I agree with adding a touch of slapback to the guitar. Great separation in the instruments, as usual for a Rami tune. Great job! You turnin' Cajun on us? :)

The 12-string sounds pretty darned good! The rest of the song is just so-so... KIDDING! Man, this is awesome, Joey. But that voice makes every one of your songs. Like a lot of people, I wish I had your range, control, timbre, etc. etc.

Great tune! I have to agree with what has already been said but geez, Joey... freakin' INCREDIBLE voice!
