    anyone listen to parkway drive?

    Thanks.. I used the classic 50 miced with an i5 for the guitars. And because parkway drive is tuned to drop B, the marshall didn't sound any better... (Too much gain maybe?) Maybe I can clean it up.. The snare.. it's all EZDrummer. I'll see what I can do with it... I'll post back when I get a...

    anyone listen to parkway drive?

    i covered frostbite. it's not an awesome cover, and my guitar has a slight intonation issue which makes it sound out of tune on higher notes. the drums are programmed. check it out, tell me what you think: http://www.myspace.com/jconquest

    How far I've come in a couple years...

    No bass yet.. I think I might throw some in there and re-mix it though. I'm not really sure yet..

    How far I've come in a couple years...

    Well... This is the basic dimensions of the room I'm working with: The shaded walls are carpeted. The floor is hardwood and the wall nearest is plywood. There's windows on the end walls too. It's not a bad room I guess, but maybe it could have been treated more appropriately. This is where I...

    How far I've come in a couple years...

    So it's been a few years since I've post.. or even poked my head around here. I've done some work and put it up on myspace. Some of the drums are EZDrummer but a couple of the songs are live. Take a listen and let me know what you guys think.. mix wise, and music wise...

    swinging cymbals

    yeah I think it is a placement issue.. I tried some things and got a lot better sound out of them by raising the OH's up a bit... it gets a little more room sound but that's okay because my room doesn't sound terrible.. Thanks guys :-D

    swinging cymbals

    so I always used to think it was because my cymbals are somewhat cheap that it sounded like this, but I figured recently that because the cymbal is swinging, it does not sound constant.. I used to only notice it recorded but I noticed it practicing one day and that's how I figured it out...

    How the room made a difference...

    my dad cleaned the studio, and took out the big rug that was covering the hardwood floor (but it's old half-rot hardwood.. no finish) and WOW it made such a difference in the way my kit sounded! The kick sounded more full, also louder.. really cut through the rest of the drums... and the toms...

    EZ DRUMMER and Cubase?

    you can program drums in cubase too w/ it by loading EZDrummer in your vst instruments, then creating a midi track, make the output to EZDrummer, then use the draw tool and draw the midi file so that it is long enough for your project or loop or whatever, and then go to midi and key editor. It...

    Last attempt..

    well.. I guess I can get new heads.. should be in a week or two though.. I was thinking coated G1's on top and clear genera resonant (or the resonant glass I don't know which) For some reason I have this idea that single-ply heads are going to be more open and choke less easily... am I wrong on...
