    SilentJ Music Video

    Hey guys...I just had to share...my band recently put together our first "professional" music video. The track used was one of the first tracks I ever recorded, and mixed all with your help. I had to share it, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ru84ys7_zWw. I think the video came out great, I...

    Online song file storage?

    I know it does not meet your criteria, but I've been pushing for last.fm, even set up a group for homerecording.com artists, so we can all help each other get into the rotation, http://www.last.fm/group/HomeRecording.com.

    Peter Gabriel

    I was just thinking...does anyone have insight as to how Peter Gabriel gets "that sound" on his vocal tracks? I can't describe it, but if you listen to his music, I think you will understand what I mean. I would love to know what effects he is layering to do that.

    An Idea to Help Us All?

    It appears the answer is No. I am viewing the group now, and I can open the station...unfortunately...our station is not yet operative yet. It seems like things on last.fm take a few days to get going.

    An Idea to Help Us All?

    I approved your application. So you should be good to go now. I hope/believe, that all members can approve the new applications. I believe that is how it is setup now. Once you are in, be sure to "connect" yourself as an artist, so you show up in the list, and your music gets added to our...

    An Idea to Help Us All?

    I accepted your application, so you are in now. You should now be able to 1) approve other applications (I left this wide open to all members for now) and 2) should be able to associate your artist with the group.

    Sharing Music on Last.fm

    Hey, sorry for the x-post, but I am thinking not a lot of people go into the promo forum, so I thought I'd post a link in a few different spots to be sure more people see this. I have been reading/posting here for awhile, so I thought I'd share an idea with everyone. I have my band's music up...

    An Idea to Help Us All?

    Hey guys/gals, I had a thought today. I've been uploading my band's music to last.fm in an effort to get it out there, http://www.last.fm/music/SilentJ. The biggest problem with last.fm, is that until you get some exposure, you don't get into rotation, and its hard to get exposure without being...

    Silentj - Off the Hook

    @mattdee1...After posting this, I burned a CD and went out to the car...I hear everything you are saying. This is definately a fall down because of the headphones. Unfortunately, the majority of my time is spent late at night on this, so I can't use monitors. I try to get the mix mostly there...

    Silentj - Off the Hook

    A few months back I posted a tune, and it was pretty unanimous that I needed to retrack the drums. I did so, and added a bass line. Here is a close to finished mix. This is a headphone mix, so I know I'll need to do a bit of tweaking, but I think its close. Feedback, comments, criticisms are...

    The Killers: Mr. Brightside

    Just listening to this on Pandora right now, so maybe this is an Internets thing, but in hearing this tune...it seems massively compressed to me...being a Newb...I thought this another great opportunity to post over here, and see what others thought about this mix. I like the song, and I like...

    Extracting a Time Signature/Meter

    I am working on a cover of a song with some time signature changes, and some meter changes it appears. Has anyone used the Audiosnap feature in Sonar on an MP3, to get a base track laid down?

    How Much Processor...Seriously.

    My first thought was that it was the sound card, because its on the mobo. But I have the same issue when I use the Mobile Pre on this machine. Sonar 7, all patches up to date.

    How Much Processor...Seriously.

    I've got a PC that has a AMD Sempron 3200+ running at 1.79GHz, with 2GB of RAM. I've run the thesycon.de latency checker and it has never gone above 500. Latency is nil. However, when I run Sonar...even if I have one solo'ed track, no vst's...Sonar instantly chokes the CPU to 100%, and the...

    I am finding this to be hugely true.

    How many drum mics do you record with

    I've been retracking drums for some of my tunes. Last week we used 9 mics into a MOTU into Sonar. 2 overheads Condensor on tambourine Condensor on hi-hat 57's on rack toms ??? on floor tom A nice kick drum mic (??? model) 57's on top and bottom of snare (with bottom mic phased out at the DAW)

    Master of Snippets

    Well then...just double the first verse and chorus at the end, and you have a four minute song. :) Song length...I don't pay too much attention to it. Most of my songs come out at the 4-4:30 mark, but I have some that run 2-3, and some that run 8-10.
