    Reindeer visits south. ..metal.

    great tune and playing but i find this mix/mastering very fatiguing due to the abundance of high pitched sounds. i ran the mp3 through a spectrum analyzer and the peaks at 4000-7000 are amazing! do you have a past with very loud amps? when you said you're not good enough to play in a band...

    How much snare sound should come from overheads?

    i like the combination oh/bottom of snare. the snare in the oh provides most of the body, the miked bottom gives great snappiness.

    11 hours of work.

    i can hear that in the music. the only thing that comes to mind is that there appears to be a gap between the bass sounds and the guitars. great playing - i envy you my chops are nowhere near to yours.

    Can a Shure SM57 or 58 work for acoustic guitar?

    he died 2000 years ago. he can not love anymore. anyway the art preamp is not good on a 57 it's very noisy and gives very little gain, let alone clean gain. as another poster already pointed out a 57 has a low output so needs a lot of gain on lower volume sources. the key to a decent sound...

    Can a Shure SM57 or 58 work for acoustic guitar?

    get the nicest preamp you can buy and it'll make any mic work. the question is : does he love you?

    SnapJack - Have You Guys & Gals Seen This?

    well yes and no. i lead my cable between my strap and guitar and that way it never gets unplugged. the other end is strapped to the amp handle with a velcro strap. anyway i like the silent break/connect feature - that's something really handy. wireless indeed is very cool.

    SnapJack - Have You Guys & Gals Seen This?

    what's the chance you disconnect them accidentally by straying too far from your amp for instance? annoying during gigs.

    Anyone tried this for drums?

    i recorded the drums for this project on an ancient ARIA StudioTrack four track cassette recorder then sampled and looped parts of it. as dani pace pointed out the recording and playback speeds on these machines are not constant so using complete drum tracks might be very difficult. if this...

    lopsided drummers

    thanks for all the replies. i've been recording his kit with everything from one to eight mics and it's this four mic configuration that gives the least satisfying results but since i only have an eight channel interface i don't have much choice when i record band rehearsals. i'll try...

    New song - Foo Fighters/Pearl Jam

    starry eyes is that the song? sounds really good, very nice pop tune. there are some great ideas in there, good production, great arrangement, singing, playing ... where would you put the electric guitars? it reminds me of a band called dEUS.
