I think the new mix sounds good.

I like it. I had the strange feeling I'd heard it before...

That was pretty good. Needs more alcohol.....

+1 for installing an SSD. It's the best bang for the buck to speed up a machine.

Very cool! It would be nice if they inscribed them "Made For Rob Aylestone".

I have a light on the phone in my pocket. Back in my working life, I always had (and still do) a UPS on my computer. As contract mechanical designer, I could not afford to lose even the 5 minutes worth of work between autosaves. Much better to do a controlled shut down than have to reconstruct...

OK Laser, here you go. My wife shot this video of me performing Six Days On The Road with her iPhone 8 a couple of months ago. The audio is not terrible, but in hind sight, I should have turned a little so the guitar was not straight on to the phone because it's kind of drowning me out (maybe a...

Updated software is usually required if you collaborate with others or send your files to others that need to be able to manipulate the project. I ran into this in my professional life as a mechanical designer. An older version of (insert software name here), will not open the latest versions...

Looks like a molded cord and plug. No way for water to get in there. Roll it out into the sun for a few hours if you are concerned.

Ditto

I agree with mjb, the boost in upper mids/top end in the vocals on the VSX version makes them pop out.

I think they all sound clean, well played and recorded. I'm listening on ear buds, and the only critique I have is the outro vocals on "I Been Riding" are a little low when the harmony parts come in. I think you really did a good job.

Post it!

I'm curious as to how you do this. Do you have her sing the vocals to the original Sherly Crow song, and then record all the instruments for the cover yourself? It seems labor intensive to record the cover song music first and then she changes her mind and wants to do something different.

I used a power soak to limit the volume when driving the amp, it's just a variable resistor load bank between the amp and speaker(s). I had a problem at practice getting the volume right. It went from too soft to way too loud. The power soak was adjustable so I put the amp volume where the drive...

I've used a Rode NT5 with the foam cap on for narrations and it works fine. I want to try it on a vocal to see how it sounds.

Good to know, I'll watch it the next time I have insomnia.

Playing in tune is a relative thing. One guitar only has to be in tune with itself. Like you, I don't tune my guitar when I'm playing. I strum it, I can tell if it's in tune with itself. Good enough for practice. However, I do tune it, if I'm going to record or play with other people. I know a...

I was in Shanghai in 2008 visiting our CN factory. One of the places I went to in my leisure time was called, wait for it..... The copymart! You could get your name brand fashion clothing, Rolex or other high dollar watch, electronics, or anything else you can imagine, all with authentic (um)...

Look at the tooling or casting marks. You might be surprised to find they are the same. I wouldn't be surprised if you find a Neumann pc board (although maybe not with all the spec'd components). The company I worked for had countless parts sold to competitors made from our tooling. We also had...
