    Something Completely Different

    I didn't notice the thing about the kick sounding somewhat disconnected until I read everyone's comments about it. Then I focused on the kick and I have to agree. Like the piano a lot. I think you should yell "JESUS!" at the end as the music fades... in case the listener isn't sure who you're...

    "No Air Nowhere"...Say that 10 times fast...:D

    Do people actually eat carp? I always thought carp was the scummiest fish in the lake and nobody who wasn't starving would even consider eating it. Maybe if you use the right breadcrumbs... Song has perfect playing and timing, as is the norm for your stuff. Great vocals, and again excellent...

    Arrested for driving while blind

    Love this song. I remember when I was in high school or junior high they used to advertise these compilation CDs on TV of '70s garbage called "Guitar Rock" which my brother ordered, and this was one of my favorite songs on it. My speakers suck and I can only pick out mix problems that are...

    DP-24... it has to be said

    I can understand why you feel that way... every other problem I ever had with this thing was solved by formatting the SD card (this is after I tossed all the cheap ones I had and got good ones). For instance, I made a habit of saving my songs to my computer's hard drive from the SD card before...

    DP-24 mastering question- "crossover"

    I get it now. So in that picture above, the high band will compress any frequencies above 3.17, the mid band will compress anything between 3.17 and 315, and the low goes below 315. That makes more sense than the way I was expecting it to work. I'm a little slow sometimes. Thanks for the...

    DP-24 mastering question- "crossover"

    I didn't want anyone to go to any trouble, but thanks for looking it up. I actually thought it was just what you said, but I noticed that you can only set one frequency range for ALL the bands. For instance... if you set it at a range for high, then move to mid, that range you just set will be...

    DP-24 mastering question- "crossover"

    In the Tascam DP-24's mastering function there is this thing called "crossover" here: It must have something to do with compression. The last time I changed the values was many months ago (just from screwing around with them back then I determined that 315 and 3.17 sounded ok, and I left...

    "The Wizard" with Brian Miller on vocals, "Inside a Spaceship" V2 and an extra...

    I like you, so I'm going to focus on the positive: - You are a good guitar player. - I like that part at :40 with the bass and guitar. I don't remember that from the original. I haven't heard the original in a lot of years, so I'm assuming you came up with that yourself. - I think the...

    lover

    I'm not going to go and listen to the actual tune because I could be way off on this, but I think the first second of this reminded me of the theme from "Night Court". Ok, I went and listened to it. Maybe it was just the tone of the bass. Anyway... You've got a great voice and this is not...

    Music to Murder - Cold Soul

    This is coming from a novice who fucks around with playing and recording but does not really have the ear to properly critique mixes. As a fan of music, though, my opinion is as valid as anyone else's, so here we go: I like the music a lot and think the mix is pretty damn good. To digress...

    DP-24... it has to be said

    Yeah man, I was sure of it. Everything else works fine, and lots of people have complained about these snaps, so I would be surprised if only my machine has this problem when recording in 24 bit. There are also some guys on here who seem to know how to remedy every other problem that people...

    Violence

    Thanks, Bubba. This is more of a return of NTB to being NTB than of NTB returning to the NTB of old. Of course, since I recorded it a few months ago, it could also be referred to as "classic NTB", though that's almost a perversion of the word "classic". You are right, this was recorded before...

    Violence

    It's not that bad. You know how it is when something is just fine, then you get something better, and all of a sudden what you had before ain't so fine anymore. I can probably play with the EQ and get it sounding worthy of turning up a little. I was on the fence about that, myself. Ha...

    Violence

    Everyone could use some more violence in their lives; that's just common sense. This is a cover of a Blood For Blood song, which is a cover of a song by the British band The Oppressed, whose stuff I never heard before. The song is actually more fun than the title might suggest. I recorded...

    Original song --- LIFT

    I was caught a little off-guard by that tune change around 1:35, but you do have the word "prog" up there, so I shouldn't have been surprised. As far as the song itself... If it were done with real drums, bass and guitar (no synths), played at about 1.5X the speed and with a heavier tone, I...

    No place to be

    I don't know who the Mona Lisa twins are, but that just means they're probably not hookers in the Northeast US. I'm not much for this kind of music. However, my dilettante mix opinion is as follows... I'm not listening on good speakers, but the vocal sounds a bit loud compared to the music...

    Me doing Billy Joel ... because it was obvious I had to. :)

    That was good.

    The Misfits - Skulls - Hillbilly Version - Classic Horror Punk Butchery!

    Your love song inspired me to take a couple hours and throw this masterpiece together. https://soundcloud.com/user92696274096/american-nightmare2/s-doShG

    mexico

    That actually sounds like a real hi-hat, like the way it sounds in real life when drums are being played in the room. In fast rock songs like most of the stuff I listen to I prefer a bit of "treatment" of some sort on it, but it sounds perfect in this song. Might be a little loud, since it was...

    Tried something new

    Pretty good. You write all these instrumentals yourself? You've got pretty many of them. You are a master riff creator.
