    a couple elliott smith covers

    thanks, guttadaj, i'm glad i'm not alone. 1. original music doesn't allow for specific critique because the added songwriting/arrangement factors--it's sorta like putting the cart before the horse. as i mentioned in my first post, just working on the performance, recording, mixing, etc. is...

    a couple elliott smith covers

    thanks for the reply, scrubs. understood, but i've seen this come up before... where do people like myself go who are just trying to learn the ropes and want feedback on covers? i guess you can simply compare it to the original but many times i can't even fathom the jump in quality and i'm...

    a couple elliott smith covers

    hey, all, been listening to your tunes in the mp3 forums for awhile now and i've finally mustered up enough courage to post a couple songs myself for feedback. it's been a little overwhelming because i've been learning about performance, recording, mixing, and listening all at once but it's...

    This aint personal...(personal note)

    guys... no more snide comments, no more name calling... it doesn't matter who's right or wrong anymore. please stop this and let's move on as a community, eh? :/

    fading out the whole mix

    just wanted to clarify that GT2 does have volume envelope for individual sound clips (or waveforms), but not for an entire track or song. 1) i'll probably just keep doing what i do now--combine sound clips, adjust the sound clip's volume envelope so they fade accordingly, etc. or 2) i've...

    fading out the whole mix

    dachay2tnr, thanks for the explanation. as far as i can tell, GT2 doesn't have the ability to place a volume envelope on a track or master fader. :( i guess it's a minor inconvenience that i can live with for now.

    fading out the whole mix

    perhaps i'm not understanding the terminology... i'm still new to all this. :( fader = volume slider that you pull up/down bus = ?? channel = track (of which any number of sound clips may be contained) i know how to put a volume envelope on a sound clip, but when strryder says does this...

    fading out the whole mix

    ok, i'm not sure i understand how this would work. and how does one put a volume envelope on the fader (volume)?

    doubling for live performance

    dogman, i've played around with my digitech legend 2 for doubling on my acoustic and vocals. i'm probably not setting it correctly but it never seems to come out right. sounds very... digital, for lack of a better word. farview, i'm assuming the click track is simply the mix with the parts...

    fading out the whole mix

    what exactly is the master fader? is this the same as the master volume?

    doubling for live performance

    i know this forum is about home recording but... how do bands replicate the doubling (or in some cases, tripling, etc.) effect on their recordings for live performance? e.g. voice doubling

    fading out the whole mix

    i use guitar tracks pro 2 and i'm wondering if there's a way to fade out a song aside from having to individually fade out each sound clip using the volume envelope. your help is appreciated.

    First Effort & First Mix

    i'm no expert but that's a cool song--sorta reminded me of joy division ("leaders of men" maybe?), rough and punchy. definitely would like to hear this with the vocals turned up. btw, i'm new to the forums, too, and some of the stuff on here is pretty amazing. really puts things into...

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    actually, i understand the dual-purpose knobs so those weren't the problem. my issue was the fact that i have to weaken the input signal (high, med, low) so that the aux signal comes through clean. i'll figure it out someday... for now things are good! :)

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    it doesn't make any sense to me, but i think i've found a solution: 1) the input level switch needs to be on high (-10 dbV) (weakens the original guitar signal) 2) the aux return level needs to be at max (10 of 10) (boosts the affected signal) according to the manual, the level switch sets...

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    rokket, you've been very helpful--if anything at all it made me look more carefully at my setup. i've got some ideas that i'm gonna try tonight when i get home. thanks.

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    i'll try my best to describe how i've got it setup... - the guitar is plugged into the input jack for channel 1 - channel 1 aux selector is set to "channel" (as opposed to foldback) - input selector for channel 1 is set to "input" (as opposed to tape) - channel 1 is set to level 7 (out of 10) -...

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    Does anyone have an answer for this? I thought this might've been specific to my Fostex 4-track, but perhaps this is more of a general question that needs to be in Recording or something like that?

    Aux Recording with a Fostex XR-5

    I've had the Fostex XR-5 4-track cassette recorder for years, but haven't used the aux send/return until now. For example, this was my regular hookup for the guitar: Guitar --> Effects Processor --> Fostex Input. Now my guitar is hooked up directly to the Fostex input and the effects processor...
