just get it done! .. once it's done, it's over!!! As was mentioned above, you can always just noodle around and see if you can come up with some new concepts . Before you know it, you'll be right back at it. Music is hard work .. but damn it, above all, it should be fun. Add some variety...

Alright point taken. All this seems to point to the fact that the guitars sound like crap and the bass needs help. Well today is Saturday ... and it' smy recording day (woo!!!) so i'm gonna remake the tune and add a few passages using my brand new distortion sound I created a few days ago...

Agreed. Where else can gospel musicians, metalheads, rappers, pros and wannabees comunicate with each other in a friendly, constructive environment virtually imune to musical, political and religious differences. Once the cashflow fairy comes by my place next week (pay day) .. I may very...

Yeah be ashamed. Then again, amp modeling circuits are getting better and better. I'm quite happy with my toneworks ax1500g .. and i'm not ashamed. My music's been sucking in the guitar sound dept. but that's not my ax1500g's fault . the blame lies on my head for not being able to find the...

Re: Re: as with napster... Well ... yeah but lets be honest here. Nobody's gonna bust your balls for a bad joke... or saying that the FBI blows peckers. Claiming that you know how to make a highly explosive bomb and you aren't afraid to use it is an altogether differnet matter... (or that you...

never give em your real address!!! Everywhere in my registry where i find instances of my real adress for some strange reason (micro$oft rats!!) .. i replace it with me@me.com. Also, it's safe to remove your name an any other information you can find about yourself. Delete cookies. Also when...

99$ .. great price. Personally the 20bit converter is scaring me a bit. I'd go for 24 bits. (It's still better than the run of the mil SB card) The price is right though!!. You may want to look for a card that has over 100dB in range and has 24bit DACs and ADCs. It's got enough inputs so...

as with napster... Kazaa finds it's home in my PC. Popup adds are a small price to pay to demo some cool tunes .. and i said "demo". I personally hate the sound quality or lack thereof of 128Kbps mp3's (which is what most people encode to for some strange reason) so I buy the CD's. I guess...

making drums Hey VOXVENDOR, How'd you figure out dual zone and cymbal choke? I haven't made a whole drumset but i too have made a 'drum' using nothing more than a Remo practice pad, a peizo from radioshack, some 'ruber glue' , a bottom of a coffee tin, medium gauge speaker wire and a mono...

Crash cymbal too loud? I agree with that. Not mean/edgy/gritty enough? You're absolutely right. That's directly related to the guitar sound. This will be resolved shortly once we re-record everything and add several parts. (some of these parts are already fully created) Thanks for the...

about mustaine .. i agree about the eel comment. This doesn't apply to your group. I should say that mustaine sounds like your vocals and not the other way around. Now lets ship dave some ex-lax.

let's try this again. I posted earlier this week. Alas not as sonically rich as sitt'n idol's but slowly (really slowly) getting there with your help. This is a fresh new mix entirely 'processed' with a single plugin. (not Ozone) I threw out free filter, l2 maximizer and an EQ and went for...

'sears' boombox ey? lol! SittinIdol, The vocals are a cross between Dave Mustaine, James Hetfield (spelling??) and the guy from Alice in Chains. Awesome mixing job. I heard vocal sibilance in 1 or 2 spots in 'suncatcher'. But that can very well have been my headphones. Everything's so...

about the guitar tone.... B.Sabbath, Last night i was farting around with the guitar distortion/tone and i found a really cool trick that should solve ALL guitar tone problems. The trick is designed to give me rock concert sustain and a nice warm overall body for leads and as for the...

for the love of god man! don't check out the others! lol.

it's a start. The coments have all been helpful so far. Mixmkr, As for the dynamic range for the whole tune, I'm thinking about doing some serious Loudness Maximize and quick release on the guitars only and then increasing the whole mix by about 3~4 db's. As it stands, the loudness maximizer...

Do your worst. I'm looking for mixing critique. Let me know how 'spacially' everything fits together or not. Tell me what's too weak and what's too much so that I can fix it. My sense of 'pan' tends to lean to the left. No jokes please. :-) I'm looking for tone critique: Guitar sounds...

To the contrary... Freefilter is an amateur ear's shining hope of nearly duplicating another band's sound. (That's the reason i use it .. i'm far from pro.) It is to be used with great care and not to be abused. It gives you a staritng point that's much closer to your goal than you would be...

Similar situation and our solution. First off, my quest for the ultimate drum machine. I set off to find the ultimate drum machine: - drumrolls - use samples, not midi - odd time signatures - easy to program (i'm a guitarist!) The quest yeilded: ... drumroll ... PROPELLERHEAD...

oh yeah ... After you've done this, pick your favorite multi band compressor and do some fine tuning. Then add a loudness maximizer and crank it. Mixdown time baby! (Ok so it's not so simple .. and that wasn't a good technical explanation of what freefilter does. sorry man. freefilter...
