    Latest stab at it, mp3 w/video

    I don't think anyone posts their songs on here with an expectation that anyone will genuinely care beyond the listen...nor will anyone be cut to the quick if a song gets little response or love...We're a small pool of small fish but if someone notices an issue on a song that I didn't (because...

    Walk Away Renee

    Yep, nice recording and likewise, getting acoustic recordings sounding good is an art in itself. That i am nowhere near mastering

    1st major effort at a complete Garageband track; open for opinions and help

    Cool melody and song...I like your voice, aside from the section at 3.35 where you get a bit lost. Like Gecko said, drums need some beefing up. Nice work.

    Hip-Hop Vocal Mix Help

    I like this. The synth sounds in the back are cool and there's a nice balance to the mix with good bass tones. The vocal seems a little heavy in the mid eq range but that might just be the tone of the vocal..Perhaps play try some really light chorus to smooth out and drop some delay?

    Opinion on mix/master

    There are some nice parts to this....vocals sit quite well but there are some guitars in there that just sound set out the mix, Mostly those panned hard right. Timing is an issue on those early kicks. It all needs blending a little better but not a bad effort.

    Happy Halloween - "The Raven"

    Liking the vibe on this a lot...First half has a Bad seeds edge to it...Cool sounding lyrics and interesting voice, some drama but not melodramatic. I like it a lot. Less keen on the muso half and would like to hear more lyrics and vocals but cool none the less.

    Evening...got round to doing a bit of work on this.. 1. Different reverb on the vocal with some stereo widening effect added 2. Raised the synth voices in the chorus 3. Pulled back the reverb a touch across all instruments 4. Took the snare velocity down. The original still up...Any feedback...

    Grid lines

    Thanks Spantini....i tried to move the whole song right but couldn't figure out how. Selected the whole song with right click and then tried using the left click but it wouldn't budge more than one track I was hovering on. I ended up deleting some space by manually positioning cursor on the mid...

    Editing midi notes in reaper

    I'm trying to drop the velocity of a snare which was dropped into reaper from MT drummer. On Kenny Gioia's tutorial its as simple as right clicking on the piano on left in the midi editing screen and then changing velocity for all notes in the edit. Unfortunately I'm trying to do that and it...

    Track bleed

    I couldn't figure the issue and ended up recording the part again....no issues this time. Ghost in the machine obviously! Cheers

    Grid lines

    Whilst inserting some empty space at the start of a track I forgot that I'd turned off the snap tool. This means the section inserted was not regular in beat with rest of the song so its making copy paste from verses etc difficult. Is there a way I can get the grid lines back in sync with...

    Progeny

    Thanks for the feedback...i agree its reverb heavy but I was aiming for an atmospheric feel due to the song content. I'll pull it back a bit and see how it fits. Woofy bass Strat...yeah I agree. I really struggle to record / mix a good bass tone. Glad the chorus was appreciated...it was one of...

    Track bleed

    As mentioned in OP, it has been muted. I've gone through each track individually and you can even hear it on a section of guitar that was recorded line in. It is a little more prominent on the acoustic tracks so perhaps there's more bleed from the phones than I've noticed before...doesn't...

    Track bleed

    I have recorded a low key acoustic track to a drum backing in Mt Drummer. Strangely, although muted, I can hear a very irritating low level drum in the background, even when rendered. I used closed ear cups to record, there are no send or recieve buses so no idea why this is coming through..i...

    Progeny

    Evening. I've not posted for a while due to a hand injury but finally got round to doing vocals and a mix on this song. It was written after watching a live Frankenstein show on NT live during lockdown...it's about love, obsession, murder...all the good stuff. Shes the better part of me But it...

    Can you listen to my songs? (youtube links, final product)

    I had a listen and you've got a nice vibe going on with this song and like others said, you could try working some backing harmonies in at the outro and elsewhere. I tend to listen out for song craft and interesting lyrics on this forum and less concerned about how loud a snare is (for example)...

    Manslick - The Bullet's Gash

    Absolutely love this song. Its quirky and playful and has a really strong melody underpinning everything. Mix wise, I can't hear the rework on my phone but throughly enjoyed the original. Top stuff Mark
