I can't record it in stereo as I only have one 58, I was considering using that along with my SP C1 but I didn't think it would sound so good. I think I have that MDA plug, I'll give it a try - many thanks :)

I am working on a song that is kinda folky/poppy in style and to keep things simple I recorded a mono bongo track for it using 1 SM58. I have no idea how to pan it - in the middle it just doesn't sound right to me, neither does copying it and putting the 2 differing degrees to each side. If...

I record exlusively with modelers - a Vox AD30VT and Amplitube 2. For lead solos I usually mic up my AD30VT with a Studio Projects C1 and crank it to really push the 12AX7 in there :) For clean and crunchy sounds I usually use Amplitube 2 and am very pleased with the results - GOODLAND just...

Thanks, I really appreciate it :) Yeah, I think the T-Racks version is definitely the better too, to my ears everything sounds more 'together'(and obviously louder too, like you said). I just want to make sure I haven't overdone things etc. Thanks again :)

I'm thinking I've maybe taken out some of the dynamics with the T-Racks one....I'd really appreciate some opinions from some more experienced ears than mine :)

I am happy with the actual mix but I am going to put the song up at Garageband.com for some objective feedback etc and I just want to make sure the polishing(in no way could what I do be called 'mastering') I've done on the final mix with EQ/compression/limiting etc is of a decent enough...

Go to http://www.crucial.com and use the memory adviser tool :) Even if you don't wanna buy Crucial sticks of RAM it will give you all the info you need.

I completely agree :) Infact, I use Glaceverb way more than Ambience, or any other reverb for that matter. Most of the presets are really good starting points for further tweaking, but the piano presets are particularly outstanding IMO :)

This is a really useful directory of a tonne of them:- http://www.audiomastermind.com/browse-free_vst_plugins-5886988-1.html

OK here's the new and(hopefully) improved mix :) http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=7669

Thanks for your comments :) Yeah, you pretty much confirmed everything I was kinda iffy about - I'm gonna get back to work on it tomorrow and work on all those things. The subject matter of the song is hers but my wife helped her put it into lyrics, did the majority of the melody and also...

The singer is a vocal student of my wife's, she is only 15 and this is her first every recording. I played all the instruments(apart from the drums, my wife programmed those) and did all the production/mixing. I'm pretty happy with the mix but I feel the piano is getting a little buried, and...

I highly recommend both Ambience and Glaceverb for reverb plugs - I use them all the time, they really are fantastic, particularly for freebies :cool: http://magnus.smartelectronix.com/ (go a little down the page for the Ambience DL link) http://www.dasample.com/index.php?show=glaceverb

Just added a Squier '51 and a Yamaha FG730S to my collection. :) https://img199.imageshack.us/img199/2769/spacetruckerguitars1zd.jpg

Thanks. :)

This is an instrumental track, one long solo really hehe. Has a classic rock feel to it, it's pretty straightforward, nothing fancy:- http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=3195

Thanks for listening SonicAlbert - yeah I agree about the bass in the beginning, aswell as the limiting I had to boost the high end EQ a little bit so that definetely had an affect on that. When I recorded the bass I forgot to turn on the lo-cut filter on my DMP3, which meant I had to EQ more...

Cool - thanks. :)

OK here's my final mix of this piece:- http://www.lightningmp3.com/live/file.php?fid=3195 The limiting definetely added a decent amount of volume - the software(Classic Master Limiter) said it wasn't going over and it sounds fine so I assume all is well. Would appreciate some more experienced...

There's definetely no alternative to micing an amp,however you can still get decent results using other methods. I record via my Korg AX1500G multi-effects with the various cabinet sims. At first I thought it would sound crappy, but I gave it a try and I'm really happy with it. It's not...
