By the way Cyan, I never got your PM.

We still haven't officially hit our mixing stage yet, but I definitely am going to fix the kick drum. I think our kick may have been tuned too low for that good snappy sound. I'll play with it when we mix and hopefully I can bring it out a little more. Any ideas of what to do when it's tuned...

I am the vocalist and one of the guitarists in the band (we have 2) and I do most of the songwriting for the band. When I write a song, I just go with the flow and it comes out the way it does. My songs tend to settle over time as I become more comfortable with the rhythms and vox. I also...

Thanks for the comments. Anything that you would change/fix on the mix? Another song of our is posted under this link: http://www.eng.utah.edu/~awilson/Assim.mp3 This one is a little more mellow, but still has a good beat. I would really appreciate feedback on this one as well. (I posted...

I posted another song of ours under the thread: "Feedback on Rock-Groove song"

This song is called "Inside Your Head" by my band "Glikk." We are finishing up a CD and I am posting some preliminary tracks up so that I can get some feedback. Please listen to this song and let me know what you think about: The song itself, the mix, the vox, guitar solo, and anything else...

Hey thanks for the input Chad. Our full CD project is on its way soon. So you'll have to check out the rest of it. Right now we are finishing up the tracking of aux. percussion, then we will start mixing and mastering. Hopefully the CD will be printed in the next couple of months. Keep and...

Thanks... Anyone have comments on the Mix?

OK, I now have a sample of the song with the VOX. Please check it out and let me know whats good, and what needs to be better. Please let me know specifically about the mix of the VOX, Bass, and Drums. Thanks Here's the sample: http://www.eng.utah.edu/~awilson/Assim.mp3

oh duh!

Yeah, I will for sure post some samples when we get the vox laid down. The scrapping that you hear is from the pick on my acoustic guitar. I am going to have to notch out that freq so that it doesn't sound so "picky." The buzz in the intro is intentional... it's supposed to sound really lo-fi...

Ok...thanks for the input. What specifically can I do do fix some of these probs? Freq ranges? Effects?

My band is finishing up the instrumental tracks on our first CD. I need some help with the mix so I would appreciate anyone who can give me some feedback. The mp3 is here: http://www.eng.utah.edu/~awilson/Assim.mp3 There are no vox yet so be patient. Does it sound professional or cheesy? I...

Flextone XL -> XLR Stereo Outs -> Preamp -> Creamware Soundcard -> Sonar 2

If you want to hear a sample of my flextone XL, go to http://www.eng.utah.edu/~awilson/FriendsSampleMP3.mp3 and www.glikk.com

yeah I messed with a Spider before I bought my flextone. It actually doesn't sound too bad. Pretty good in fact. The problems lie in the way it is set up. You can't tweak the settings very much because muiltiple effects are built into one knob. There are no line outputs or anything. The...

The best sound that you'll ever get for guitar is going through an amp and into a microphone. Direct systems just don't have the same feel. I just found this out first hand, because my band is recording a project and I am working with the tones. Check out this sample. It was done using a...

My amp is basically the same thing as the POD, except in the form of a full guitar amp. (Flextone II XL) The tones on it are great and the effects are really smooth. I tried using it to record direct-in, however, and I wasn't too pleased with the results. It sounds much better if it is used...

My band is working on a project and I am trying to get the best possible guitar tones. I have a line 6 Flextone XL amp and I tried using the line outs for recording but it sounded pretty muddy. Here is a sample of what I got using two microphones...

That did the trick! Sorry about the confusion, I thought that moskus was saying that I needed to install directX 9.1. Thanks for the clarification.
