Yeah, those ATH-50's are nice. I have stuck by my Sony 7506's. I guess I'm just used to tracking with them..........

Yeah, I Eq (mildly) Compress (aggressively) and rarely use reverb...........

Hi, My error....BFD is just midi samples of real recorded drums. So, i choose the sequence I want drop it into PT on an Instrument track, edit it and then assign them from BFD to separate midi tracks in PT's...... Then once my song is completely done I buss the sounds to Audio tracks and print...

Totally......BFD's levels are very hot. I'm just wondering if I should be placing all the faders in the mixer back to unity (pull the master down to stop clipping) then have the audio pass through PT's (midi tracks) then buss to corresponding audio tracks?

Right....I guess I'm just worried that if I keep the levels where they are (with some faders lower than others) that my recording levels won't be hot enough once they print to PT. Also, I do wanna re-mix the audio tracks to add more compression, eg or whatever else I may want. Know what I mean?

Hi, This may be a dumb question but I was thinking about it..... When I create a drum sequence in Pro Tools this is my process: 1. Find a loop I like in BFD and drag/drop into Pro tools. 2. I select the output sends in BFD's mixer and route the kit pieces to the midi channels I have set up in...

Well, if you plan on having your songs mixed by a mix engineer I would suggest using Pro Tools. Most ppl are going to be using it; at least in my humble experience.......

Ahhhhh, that was just a question.......relax Lt.

How does the SM57 do with recording acoustic guitar? I've never associated that mic with recording acoustics....

I know dude.....I've had Strats, Lp's but never a Tele........

Hi, Yeah, I am doing the "Newer Country" stuff so I do need some gain in there. I understand the more traditional country didn't use that. Again, I think I can find a good balance between laying off the gain, using compression and maybe a little delay. But I'm also thinking I should add a...

Very true Rami! I'm definitely writing and recording "New Country." It's polished from top to bottom. I'm usually a pop writer/producer but this stuff seems so close to the pop I was doing that it's not a stretch anymore. I'm just trying to get my hook guitars to sit in the mix nicely (not...

Thanks guys.....I'm going to cut way back on the gain and see where that goes. The sound of modern country records regarding elec gtrs is so diff than pop or rock. I guess I'm just not used to the cleaner sounds. But I can do it!!!!

Yeah, maybe I need to lay off the crunch/distortion. I'm only stacking 2 sets of guitars (so, 4 passes; 2 panned wide left and 2 right). I guess I'm worried about the chords not holding out as long as I want them to. That's why I raise the crunch. I've gotta experiment with cleaner sounds...

What about a Les Paul and Amplitube or Eleven plugin's? Will that do? I guess I just have to keep messing with the amount of crunch I'm using. For some reason, after i stack my guitars they sound too heavy.

Hi, I'm currently writing and producing country pop demos. I need my stacked gtrs in hooks to sound thin but definitely present in the mix. I know they do this a certain way in Nashville but I haven't had much luck..... Any suggestions? Thanks....
