    vocal recording

    Re: ahh Really? I think a 57 is a great all-round mic which does a pretty darn good job for vocals as well. Granted, there are better vocal mics, but to say it *sucks* is a bit harsh, don't you think?

    vocal recording

    Bastupungen = Sauna Scrotum? What Sean said, you need something to boost the signal. If you like me are Swedish, you can get a [crappy, but working] mic pre for around 400 SEK at www.jam.se. It's better than not having anything at all.

    Not happy with this... what can I do?

    Actually, it wasn't all that tough. I wrote the MIDI in a notation software and edited it a bit in Cakewalk, but it's a lot of "copy & paste" with slight variations. Yep. :D The intro music sampled from the original game. 8-bit sine and triangle waves... ah, the nostalgia. :D It's really not...

    Not happy with this... what can I do?

    Hey guys (and gals?), One of my hobbies is to do my own versions of old Nintendo game music. Following this link, you can hear my latest acheivement (sp?) - the song from the first stage in the old NES game "Batman" (4,5 MB download). I spent this day throwing together a mix of it, and I feel...

    Mackie Monitors- Does anything compare

    And Rip Rowan would disagree. ;) Ears and minds can be so different.

    Well... don't tube guitar amps colour your sound just as much? :D

    Lane Poor Pickups

    He's been out of business for a while, and nobody really knows why. The only way you can get LP pickups is to buy them from E-Bay or get a used instrument with them installed.

    mp3 sounds like shite

    The encoder you use makes a BIG difference. I am aquainted with the Blade, LAME and Fraunhofer encoders. While the two first are free, the Fraunhofer algorithm gives way better results, IME. Blade simply sucks, but LAME performs pretty well on most material I've tried it with. Check...

    here's a song

    I think you should bring out the lead vocals a bit to give them more presence in the song, they're somewhat drowned in the busy arrangement. There's a lot of things happening in the background, which isn't all bad, but it all blends into one big mush. Bombastic but without impact. Can fatigue...

    Psychedelic Rock...

    Sloppy as in the opposite to tight. Poorly performed, if you will. And I agree, you really need to nail the performance better, this isn't fun to listen to. The mix is pretty good (first impression), although I think I encountered some digital clipping (distortion) in the guitar and vocals...

    Quick comment on mix on short song, please.

    The reason for the missing growl and snap is probably the strings. They didn't exactly growl to begin with, and after four months in use without cleaning, they have also lost their brightness. For that extra snap, I would need a lighter gauge set of strings than I usually have... I like to...

    Quick comment on mix on short song, please.

    Oh yeah, the drums really need to be reworked. In the original game, that was how they were played, but I know I can do better than that... got myself some nice samples, just need to put some time into it. Thanks for the compliments on my playing! :) It's a bit sloppy in a few places, and the...

    free cakewalk programs

    The other side of the coin: Maybe more people would have bought the software if it wasn't overpriced? :) Just teasin' ya.

    Quick comment on mix on short song, please.

    Hey all, I dug up a MIDI file of a song from a Super Nintendo game, and mostly for fun I removed the MIDI bass track and added my own, and also added some reverb and EQ to the MIDI backdrop. Now, this is something I just threw together, so it's not the best I can do (or I indeed hope so), but...
