Hey there... this is in the Cakewalk subforum. You expect a bunch of love for PT? Silly me. :rolleyes: Why do I need to feel better? I feel fine. I don't dislike PT. I just believe it is overpriced. And yes, Digidesign is a massive marketing platform for an essentially closed system. People...

So get a copy of Pro Tools just to say you've got it if it's that critical. Pro Tools systems are incredibly overpriced in comparison with what currently is entering or in the market. PT is existing on hype, because almost all folks who deal with audio realize that programs like Sonar5 compete...

Hmm... I don't think any of my rack mount reverbs which include the MPX500, Alesis Q2, TC M-One, and an Alex can touch my convolution reverb "Perfect Space". The EMT and TC6000 impulses are darn nice.

My new CD "No Yodeling Allowed" was released last week. I was a little afraid that it was mostly just my vanity involved, but the CD is selling. I'm even getting "fan email" :rolleyes: So how did I market it? I didn't. I just posted links to some of the songs on a few websites and it started...

woo hoo! up to number two! The Ballad of Jake Masters

Thanks Ray... It was really hard holding the kit up on my chest :p As always, this is a learning experience. I've learned a lot about recording, mixing, mastering, art work, marketing, etc.... After two days of CD sales, I've broken even on the actual physical replication cost, so I'm quite...

The Ballad of Jake Masters is my latest tune and is timed to coincide with the release of my new CD "No Yodeling Allowed". This was my first CD and I enjoyed it. I learned a lot while making it. Thanks, Steve Stallings Bremond, Texas

My Soundclick link Here ya go.. The Ballad of Jake Masters is my latest tune and is timed to coincide with the release of my new CD "No Yodeling Allowed". This was my first CD and I enjoyed it. I learned a lot while making it. God Bless, Steve Stallings Bremond, Texas

hmm... that's a bit circumspect ;) All GC's are not created equal. I'm not a GC apologist and have no dog in this hunt, but the Houston GC on Westheimer has some pro audio folks who are pretty serious about it.

Here is "His Love's Amazing" This is a contemporary Christian tune which would have been better if I could play keyboards worth a hoot. thanks! Steve

I'll try to think of an example... :)

I am most certainly not a mastering engineer. I try to read as much as possible and learn as much as I can. I bought the Voxengo mastering suite, the Marquis multiband compressor, and the Harmonie EQ. All I try to do is get the tune to sound good on my NS10s. Much is trial and error... ( no...

Yamaha NS10s

I found this tune refreshing. Assuming you are happy with what you have, I would suggest a minor tweak before beginning mastering. remove a bit of the reverb if at all possible. Now, what mastering tools do you have? Here are my suggestions using the tools I have: All Voxengo Mastering...

I do not think this mic is overpriced at all. I really like it alot. I am extremely happy with it and consider it the best investment in a microphone I've ever made.

Quick.... Give me some comments or the short fat bald dude playing pedal steel gets his fingers broke :D

Dang... this is amazing. This is as good as it gets. No kidding. I'm a cranky old fart who has been around the block. I absolutely love this, especially 181. Wow! An actual melodic, finely crafted guitar tune. Where are you going to master at? Sign me up for your fan club. Of course, it...

Needs pedal steel :D Ok... The bottom end of this mix is lacking somehow. It sounds like everything below about 100 was rolled off. The vocal is unintelligible. You may be going for this effect? The guitar sounds are good, but the mids sound a bit too scooped for my taste. I like the drums...

This is interesting and I enjoyed listening to it... I like the whistle. Ok, here are my comments... Mind you, I'm a bit on in years and have minimal skills. I listened to this on both Yamaha NS10s and some AKG "M" series headphones. The drums need attention. The closed HH is ok but the open...

This is actually world class stuff. I can see a young girl being led down a dim candle lit pathway in a dank, dusty castle, by a group of robed and hooded attendents.... Now... The mix... excellent. The drums... need a miniscule bit of variation in tempo.... think of a real drummer and...
