    Critique OD/Dist rhythm tones at bedroom level

    New to electric guitars. My playing sucks big time but I just need some feedback on the rhythm tone. It's not intended to sound like the real band, just trying to experiment with nice distortion/overdrive tones at bedroom levels and I happen to like this one. It's the one called Seether and...

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    Don't know if there is a secret. My room is just like any other room in the house and the RNP/RNC settings have not bee moved since around March (which tells you how much I really know about compressors). I've got to say that I found the NTK to suit my voice really well. I used to love the...

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    A collaboration would be great! You can download that track from nowhereradio and feel free to do anything you want with it. The noise seems to appear during mixdown but I could have sworn the other night that I still heard it even when all the track levels were down to zero. I wonder if my DAW...

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    Ed and Scrubs. Thanks a bunch, guys! I still can't determine what's causing that noise that DonF pointed out and it's driving me nuts. I'll hopefully get rid it when I re-track the guitars.

    Tim, you got it. I just used finger flesh and moved the mic closer. I'm too cheap to buy a bass guitar especially because I don't even know how to play one. :) Maybe I'll look into getting one as Llarion recommended.

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    Thanks again for the compliments on my vocal style. It's no longer popular but I still like it. Excellent point on the upstrum part. Will definitely try that when I re-track. I actually don't play bass. I don't even have a bass guitar. I just used the three strings on my Taylor to do the bass...

    I like Yes a lot but not enough to know the musicians names. Thanks though, great compliment.

    That's it. The 3 to 1 rule. Thanks for clarifying it for me.

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    Tim, I can't thank you enough for your compliments on my voice. Thanks again. When I first did the rhythm guitar, it sounded so bright so I retracked it using a Taylor with dead strings and without a pick. I guess it worked! :D Seriously, I see what you mean and will definitely redo the...

    I have been trying to figure out where that noise is coming from as well. I have no answers at this time but it is extremely annoying. Thanks Don.

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    Tim and Snakedog, Thanks for the compliment on my vocals and the critique on my guitar playing. I'll try to redo the guitars here within the next few days and pay more attention to tone and tighter playing. Tim, Thanks for the rumble CD. I have yet to listen to it because I know my solo...

    Another newbie acoustic recording (warning: sappy 70s love song)

    It's the Bread cover, "Make it With You." I did everything so please feel free to offer advice/feedback/comments. In fact, I'll start. I think my guitar playing is lousy especially for a song that's very easy to play. My bass playing which I took up just a few minutes before recording the...

    The AT4040 is not my main vocal mic but I've always liked whenever I use it.

    Jim Croce Tribute

    Good stuff, Rick. There's a few parts in almost all of the songs that I play differently but only very slight differences. Great tribute.

    Rode NT5 VS Studio Projects C4

    Had the same dilemma last year but ended up with the C4 based solely on reviews. I live in a place where I do not have the luxury of trying before buying. Didn't really have a chance to try the NT5s but I am pleased with my C4s. I understand the NT5s are great mics for the price as well and...

    Experimental recording so take it easy on me.

    WOW! Thanks Rick! TIB was actually with a Taylor that has now been sold. New York is too low of a pitch for me making me sound like I'm trying too hard. I'll try to record a couple of these songs within the next few days, limit the effects and hope they turn out better. Thanks again for the...
