    Finished plus collab with Ian Warnock

    I thought I lost this song forever, but I found it again! I wrote it whilst driving the car late at night, no instruments and then added to later. A different aproach but rewarding. Wow, a really dramatic finish to the whole album. Of all your songs that you have posted to this bbs, the lyric...

    Basic CAT5 question

    Oh definitely ... the plenum stuff will certainly go out by itself once it has caught fire and burned :D Seriously though, if you live in a city limits, you should check the plenum code. That's a very good suggestion by knightfly.

    Basic CAT5 question

    CAT 5 performs very well at 120 degrees and below . The wires inside CAT 5 are the same as telephone wire, and they have been living above and below ground for many years. There are industrial solutions that regularly expose telephone communications wires for extended periods of time to...

    what did you do today?

    This is a sweet song. Very nice performance. You create some great imagery here. The chorus has got Cat Stevens all over it. I hear a nice accompanying cello part in the chorus. There's lots of rooms for little violin fills, like the dandilion spires blowing in the N'orther. I love it when...

    Virtual Fusion Project

    Well, the DL is not connecting to the server. Almost all of us here use nowhereradio.com , and it is the MP3 Clinic. My suggestiong is to make this an MP3 and post it on nowhereradio.com ... IF ... you want to increase the number of listens that you get, this is sure fire way to do it. That...

    Collaboration Legalities

    Ok, so this is not about mixing ... It's about collaboration. Because I am primarily in the business of music, and in the hobby of homerecording to record violin , viola and cello to other people's music, I would like to discuss the subject of serious collaborations. Here are some issues ...

    Watch it Go Down Done NEW

    cubase sx will allow you to assign tracks to an 'auxiliary bus'. For example, let's say you have an audio track with bass, and audio track with guitar, and an audio track with mandolin. You could assign a reverb plug-in to each individual track, but that would be very wasteful with respect to...

    Watch it Go Down Done NEW

    Ya know, eventually you go bald from 'wearing all those hats' ... but ... you'll have the hats on so nobody will know :D . Please make a quick post about your software and gear that you are using to mix with, just the mixing stuff, and I'll advise on instrument grouping 'by bus' , and 'bus...

    Watch it Go Down Done NEW

    Awesome beginning. This is a very eclectic piece, it's like Coldplay, a string band, and a french quarter pianist ? Broadway and Vaudville ? Vox is mixed fairly well on top in the very beginning, but some of the instrument peaks are challenging. The cumulative level of all the 'doot' tracks...

    joro and dtb

    wow, this is a treat to listen to. The bass is booming a bit, the verse vox is to low :D . A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N-A ... bigtime guys. This type of 'character' voice has to ride way out front of the mix, just like any other singer, especially in the verse. This is a story, we must hear the story, and...

    Square One - New mixes... testing out the pre to puter combo

    I'm set up now with SquareOne1004.mp3, and SquareOne1005.mp3 in the playlist in Windows Media Player, so I can 'A-B', change back and forth between them, to study the differences. It seems the level of the acoustic guitar has come down in the intro, and that's your call, it was never...

    Square One - New mixes... testing out the pre to puter combo

    In SONAR at the top in the menus under options->Audio, you can configure SONAR to use up to 64 busses. And I figure you will now be going bus crazy, and it's good idea to bus each instrument group, it gives you a lot of flexibility. I'm DL'ing the mix right now. This is fun. This is what...

    Mondo Mando - Two Times Two

    Well, I must say, this has become one of the richest threads ... there are two threads on the board now where the poster has posted, taken feedback, and then re-mixed before the post has left the first page. A very good weekend for the 'CLINIC' yes, MC Gitarz has reposted the mix, simply...

    Simple - She left me...dadgumit

    This is one hell of a good song, class A from the heart, sincere writing and performing. I love the distant harp at the end, I agree with MC Gitarz, take some verb off the harp early on, and then you can really generate the distance in the harp outro. I think that every time you lay the tracks...

    Square One - New mixes... testing out the pre to puter combo

    JimmyChalk : I really think you are getting lucky with this thread, and things are going along in this thread in kind of an ideal way. You have posted the MP3 as an acoustic mix, and then as a fuller band mix ... And we get to study the growth of the mix and the song through that. Then ...

    Untitled_1.mp3 -------------------- Yes, Elton John ! I'm hearing strains of 'Don't let the sunshine ... blah blah blah' I like the tom run, that was mixed nice. IMHO, in an instrumental ... the drum brass here is bit to loud, the cymbal specfically. Give us a loud hit on the cymbal at the...

    12 Songs For Your Utter Enjoyment or Disgust.

    What I'm seeing in this thread is a very enthusiastic newcomer to the board, and I appreciate folks coming to this board, this board is getting a really big reputation in the homerecording cottage industry ... Maybe it should be called homerecording.com or somethin ... I believe, when a poster...
