    Where should a bass guitar be panned???

    You need to ask yourself one question to figure out where to pan it: "Am I the Beatles?" If your answer is NO, then don't even THINK about moving it off-center!

    Compressor won't limit peaks...need some help

    first off, the meek is NOT a brickwall limiter. second, if you put it at its fastest attack time, it will actually make the first peak MORE noticeable, as it will overload the circuit and then rapidly drop down.

    CEP and delay/echo

    no problem. I guess I should tell you this right now, presets are all well and good for like broad ideas and starting points, but their usefullness ends right there: as starting points. You have to make them work for you. This applies to presets for anything: chorus, flanger, echo, phaser...

    CEP and delay/echo

    Also, I just wanted to mention to make sure that your delay time is not set too low. If it's under 200 ms or so, it'll sound more like a slap-back delay.

    CEP and delay/echo

    To get an echo to repeat, you should be using the echo effect. The two most important knobs for it echoing off are the feedback control (how many times it's echoed back into the path) and the equalisation (how is each successive echo going to be filtered). Eq out almost all the lows, as that...

    Guitar "presense"

    although not knowing song pretty much puts me in the dark on the sound you're going for, I would say that instead of using two mics on one source, do two takes with just one mic on the amp each time. For the second take, if you can, switch guitars, amps, mics, preamps, etc. so you get a...

    what album has sub-50Hz frequncy?

    I'm merely guessing here, but I have a good feeling most Aphex Twin and Autchere albums would qualify, as well as Ruby Vroom by Soul Coughing.

    T-racks

    Re: why not? wiz...... often times, those 12 inch singles were mastered seperately. It is not uncommon for compiliation albums to be a bunch of mixes of songs that are then all mastered by one guy to get them to fit together. this is also how a lot of soundtracks are done. so yes, the singles...

    John Williams I'm Not

    yeah, this is just like a bare bones rendition for now... I'm thinking of putting in some samples from various obscure stuff for the hell of it... also, there's a few more parts that I did (that aren't the result of loops) that should help it out...... cause, I mean, if I'm scoring something, I...

    I'm sorry, I guess I forgot to allow all users to download it. I apologize. It is fixed now.

    John Williams I'm Not

    oh no, no need to apologize.. I'm not mad at all, I just didn't know what song you were referencing.... I'm not familiar with that song, but I know what you're talking about now. If you've ever seen Lady Hawke, the whole Alan Parsons soundtrack... yeah, I'm kind of iffy on that little high...

    John Williams I'm Not

    I'm sorry, what "final countdown" keyboard part are you talking about? I assume by BIG STEREO, you mean the loud distorted bass? I'm sorry, I appreciate your comments, I'm just a little confused.

    In yer face!!!

    I'd take chessrock's statement one further and suggest high-passes on most of your tracks (except, say, bass and kick).

    John Williams I'm Not

    Hey guys, it's me again. Well, a friend of mine is an extremely avid playwright. I've been in a few of his plays, and they're always well-recieved on campus. Plus, the guy is just plain smart. So anyways, he's done a movie that he wants me to score some music for. So I was just messing around...
