    Found some old tapes I recorded back in the early 60's

    Love yah Harvey PS: low fi definitely sounds cool. Love the vocal where it stops and the accent pick of the guitar fills in for the vocal. Happens about 1:57

    woo hoo...I figured out the dropbox thing! Is this too much reverb?

    Wow, night and day. Is there a complete change in tracking? (There seems to be a change from a stereo track on vocal to a mono one on the second) I want to know that information because the second is good but the first actually is not so good - does the mere wrong application of effects do that...

    Lyrics jottings that need a critique to progress.

    I really like the rhyhme patterns of the final lyrics in each line. And the thoughts ... "Old Noah had to build it And by twos then he filled it Before the rain became a flood. Oh, but if they weren’t his kin Well he wouldn’t let them in He left ‘em fighting in the mud." Pretty cool Is it...

    Tear apart my mix - The Storm Song

    Very pleasant start. relaxed, taking it slow. Lyrics great, not quite cliche so brings in feelings well without corn. Like the high note thing at end of verse. Kind of Simon Garfy with lyrics. And melody is sort of old styled but never heard that sound quite before myself so original coming thru...

    Feck It

    Marc Hunter and Dragon at the beginning but I agree that it becomes too America at the chorus. The harmonies are great so maybe it is the flanger along with the downward thing with 'girl' at chorus end. Cooool song in many ways. Do you do all the instruments like as in Ding a ling a dang a...

    First Mixing Clinic Post...

    Hey Alex, Nice guitar and synth/string integration. Esp. at intro of Not This Way. Neat song, like the vocals you tried hard, I think, to do. In all, that song sounds like that band , I cannot remember is it Soundgarden, the band that does, 'I'm a Creep'? Broken Chimes to me is a bit...

    Are the Mackie HR824's now made in China?

    My dad said recently with response to my comment about how crap British cars with reliability only coming in with the Japanese cars, that it was because British industry was using older machines whereas Japan had the newest latest machines. When Japanese products first came out they were (in...

    Recommended dB levels for each instrument in the mixer before mastering?

    How do you hear it? I mean, you must have to turn your speakers up to full to hear it.

    Real difference b/w MIA/MIM Fenders

    Yes, there is. It is quite discernable. Always prices reflect quality as well. There's the old adage about Eric Clapton making cheap guitars sound good, but, I ain't no Eric Clapton! I also wonder what Eric would think if he had to live with the MIM Strat day in and day out.

    Most Overrated/Overpriced Electric Guitars

    The first thing I do, and which is really hard sometimes, is to find where the manufacturing was. Some Gibsons I have seen at prices 2K + have been manufactured in Korea. Yeah but, there ain't no swamp ash growing or found dead in a pond in Korea. Can you really believe that the wood is swamp ash?

    Must restart Reaper for playback after recording

    I use an Emu 0202 and sometimes when doing something else not necessarily recording based but using another form of audio like a game, I will have to restart later because the Emu will turn itself off. Maybe it is a driver thing, an incompatible match, but, it is random and not often, maybe once...

    Joe Johnston -- Fall, Fall

    I very much like the song - the voice can get the high notes - But, the breathiness almost destroys this song. Something has to be done with the breaths between the singing, also the breathiness in the voice as it sings the words. This seems to be a part of the genre but in this case it is too...
