Okay..... I've been recording with two sm81s overhead, beta 52 kick and 57 on snare. But I've felt that my toms lacked punch. They always sounded thin and weak to me when compared to their live sound. So I sprang for some drum mic clips. My kit is a year old pearl export. Now with the toms...

I think I agree with this. Especially the BAND part. A couple of people that can play guitars and that own guitar tuners would be a great start.

Re: We've had good luck SM81's are my choice too. And you are right..... placement is critical.

It's not the lyrics that I didn't like in the bridge. It's the melody and chord progression. :)

Just this side of Eden. I like this song. Really like the hook. Liked the first verse really well. It needs a band to kick in for 2nd verse. Didn't like the the bridge. It lost the "groove". Not really the groove. It lost the "cool" if that makes sense. You playing the...

4 track done in 1984. X-wife wrote lyrics and sang. I did the music. Nice easy 4 track. Song is Don't Hold Me Back link is http://www.nowhereradio.com/artists/album.php?aid=2124&alid=-1

RE: I want your crappy recordings Per the request for old 4 track songs..... Here's one from 1985. I feel a certain obligation if not just necessity to say... this was recorded on a fostex x-15. No mixer. Just miced the instruments and recorded them as they sounded. I did all of the...

Bob Dylan...... and really..... 2nd isn't even very close.

Thanks for the listening GT. This was just a fun song. No big project.... just fun. BLue Bear. I thinned the guitar out a lot on purpose. It's a martin d-41 that I thinned down to that sound. Was looking for that sound. Maybe to much? Thanks a lot for listening and commenting.

LOL..... thanks Joro. F_cksia.... I wouldn't mind if someone else sang it. Like I say..... my vocals always have issues. Just not my gift. Thanks for listening.

Got into a little contest with a couple of friends. We each are suppose to cover a Monkees tune. I covered I'm A Believer because I generally have vocal issues... so I avoided anything by Davey Jones. It's just for fun and I thought some of you guys would get a kick out of this. It has...

It's amazing how different musicians hear songs differently. I thought the first half or so of the guitar solo was the best part of the whole thing. I thought the drums (especially the cymbals) sounded like a guy playing on those little 4 pad things that you buy at Service Merchandise with...

I listened to sleepwalker a couple of times. Actually about 2 and 1/2 Sounds like a lot of todays music to me. And that's probably what you're going for. I don't know. When I hear the guitar fills at :54 and 1:15... I just think that it's someone who can't play much guitar. But I think...

I just cannot like a tune that has a pan flute and no guitars LOL!

I didn't have any clipping problem. Listening through headphones at work. I tell ya.... I like this song. When the vocal started I thought it was Marty Robbins at first. Really good vocal. Absolutely perfect for the style. Guitar was good. All the right licks. Maybe some small...

so yes most of the stuff coming out of the clinic doesnt sound like it was pro engineered....so what?..... I think it just means that while people like us like a lot of the music here, most people ...... like the 90% percentile range.... wouldn't buy it, and a radio station that played only it...

I wanted to respond to this thread. You know..... I'm not one of the "regulars" here. I pop in now and then with a new song looking for advice and comments. I've been a musician a long time and I coordinate the band for a big church. We play to 3000+ every Sunday. I'm pretty thick...

I like blues music. I thought the vocal was the best part. That 's quite a guitar tone. Maybe could be a little warmer?? I might even put a 2nd guitar playing rhythm in there somewhere. I record different than most here. I use a Yamaha "studio in the box" deal and don't generally use...

Pretty well done. I could hear Alan Jackson doing this song. Nice hook, nicely written. Good sound.
