My writing comes about many ways. Sounds similar to you. My best ones seem to fall together rather quickly, both the music and the words. At least with the main ideas. It is good to keep a recording device (My mp3 player records) and a tablet around, you never know when it hits. When I try...

I installed RPC voicetweaker last night- N-track recognizes it, doesn't apply it though..... soundforge doesn't even recognize that it is on the computer. I followed the instructions.... any ideas about what I'm doing wrong? I want to get more plugins but this sucks if I can't get them to work...

Hello, I'm getting the click/poping sound, using ACID 2.0. I'm fairly certain it's due to a buffering problem (Already posted on the soundcard forum) but I don't have any clue how to adjust it. the soundcard is a delta 410 (not 44). THanks.

Ok, I'll try tonight. Thanks again slack....

Slack, thanks for the reply. Anyway, I did the autodetect install so I don't know which driver it is. How would I find out? Also, I am using acid 2.0's recording feature. I do not know how to set these buffer sizes, although that does sound like the culprit.

I bought a new soundcard a week or so ago. At first everything went well, then I had a guitar take ruined by clicking/poping distortion. I read through the manual, and made sure everything was set up like it said. I found if I clicked it over to monitor it worked. ANyway, this aleviated the...

Heh, I like the solo... it's not what I would have done, but hell, that's what makes it yours man! I wouldn't change it... But since you ask, maybe I will try one out tonight. Seriously when I hear it, I want to take leads...... not that I think you should use it. But the thought of my name...

Hmm, a couple more comments.... Yeah the vocals could be boosted a hair. The solo part could also be boosted some. I've had a few other people listen, and they liked it too.

well, using headphones the rythem on the "I never waste my time" (I think that's what you are saying) part is just a tad high. Using monitors it's not bad. I like the pan effect- I'd just tame it down a little, maybe not full left to right. Anyway, I thought it was very catch right off the...

I like this song... the song generally is really good IMHO. Some of the levels & panning changes are a bit harsh... but damn the intro is pretty cool! I like this song.

well, is it vocals that sound weak or the guitar? if it's vocal, try a tube preamp and a compressor. Also, try doubling the vocal track. For guitar, try DOUBLING each track. You may want to change how you have mic'd up the amplifier. No Bass guitar? That fills out sound alot. Also, drums...

Hey, I was in a similar boat about a year ago. Do what slackmaster says... alot of it is experience. Just be sure to do alot of research.... specifically you can research here about micing techniques for your cabinets, how to get better sounds from vocals, what equipment..... mixing...

I can get a pretty good sound following the tips you've seen- that is micing the cab. But, now that I have a pod, I like it better. I can screw with the sound a little easier, and get more variety than with my one cab that I have (and I can work all hours of the night w/o neighbors getting...

I somewhat agree with paul/noel said but, well havn't you also listened to stuff you did awhile back and said "hey this is a hook" but you had forgotten it in the meantime? Or heard something on the radio that was popular a couple of years back but you didn't like it because it was overplayed...

tip First, get a good or decent pre. You may want a compressor. I try to not use mine as much as possible but jeez it makes things easier. You'll be surprised what a difference the two can make. Don't run the verb on the vocal for the initial take. Or set up a way to monitor yourself without...

Agree with buf. bob... What I do on the songs with a good hook is get some stupid line in my head. Sometimes it's a melody, and sometimes it's just a lyric, and sometimes it's both. Sometimes it's when someone says something that strikes me as humorous, sick, sums up my life, etc. Then of...

that was a post! I've been in the same situation. What we did was bust 8 songs, laying down the drums (once miked), guitar, bass, and vocal simultaneously, as if live, doing 3-4 takes. Then for the primary four songs we went back and had the drummer retrack/fix the drums, then the same with the...

buck25 Interesting discusion here.... I expected an emulator to not get much respect.... I'm right with some people! Anyway, in my opinion it's like most other amp equipment- everyone has their own opinion and every piece of equipment can have their place depending on the sound you are after...

well.... Because I have a pretty nice floor unit already, and I have the effects pre-programmed into it (one reason) and because I go from clean to overdrive alot (reason two). I don't like to pop in and out for guitar tracks, except for the lead, and I don't like having two guitars for what I...

well..... I didn't get the footcontroller thing, so to change from dist. to clean, I was thinking of just using the distortion from my tube dist. unit or marshall. Do you guys think that this would ruin the sound of it if I ran the output of the pod to the effects? Right now I'm thinkin' it...
