Recorded in the Garage... We converted our garage into a spare room (put up a studded wall etc). I've turned it into a studio in so far as I've put all my equipment in there, but I've not done anything special, it's just a normal room. I have eight drum mics on the kit, one on each drum...

My first attempt at an acoustic kit (Ekit up until recently). Everything done by me, recorded on my VF160 - see what you think... Autumn Wasting Dave.

I just up loaded some new songs. These are my first attempt at recording an accoustic drum kit (I was all Ekit until recently). See what you think to them. All tracks written, performed and recorded by me... Autumn Wasting These songs were recorded on my Fostex VF160. Dave.

Red 5 Audio I have a Red 5 Audio mic kit and it sounds great to me. They're a very reasonable price and, as a modest home recorder, I must say that the drum sounds I'm getting down kick my arse...! Red 5 Audio are here...

Together we stand... I agree entirely, I was only mucking around earlier. This is a superb website for sharing experiences and learning from others...! Long live Fostex...! I love you guys <sniff>....

VF Boys...(and girls obviously) Hey guys, what's up with the Mr8 thing, us VF owners have to stick together...! (I'm a 160 man myself). By the way, does anyone know what happened to the official Fostex Forum...? It was going ok, then it just suddenly ceased to be...

New Cymbals...! I just got me some Paiste 502s and 802s for my Home Studio kit (Yamaha Stage Custom), they sound as awesome as they look guys...!

All on the VF160 if you go to My Home Page and go to the sounds page, there's some tracks there that were recorded, mixed, then burnt onto CD all within the VF160. See what you think...

VF160 Recording.... Hi Guys, Check out my website HERE and go to the "Sounds" page. All the songs there are recorded with my VF160. I'm very much in the learning stage of Home Recording, but see what you think anyway... Dave.

Well.... I've just got a set of Red5 Audio drum mics, but I'm not allowed to see them until Christmas (my wife is very understanding of my home-recording obsession, but she insisted they were a Christmas present). So after Christmas I'll let you all know how they worked out.

What I is doin' I'm doing everything on the VF160 unit. I do have Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 on my PC, but I haven't really used it since getting the Fostex. I kinda wanted the whole back to basics recording experience (yeah I know the 160 isn't really basic - but you know what I mean). There are...

Hmmm.... When you come out of scrub mode, the unit is in the exact spot. I scrub to where I need to be then exit scrub mode, then do the whole editing thing. Perhaps I didn't understand what you meant... Dave.

Thanks For The Comments Thanks for all the input so far guys. The "discuss" thing really was an open invitation for all your comments be they about the tune or the mix or anything. So yes I'd like to know what you would "fix" etc... I'm not in a band, I just record on my own in my garage, so...

Ok, so my background is all out Thrash Metal, but my 8 year old daughter's isn't. I told her that I would write a Pop song, rather than the hard edged stuff I normally write. So here it is.... Hassle Free Discuss... Dave.

Thanks... Thanks again for all the tips and comments guys. I'm gonna print this thread out and run over the ideas when I have a little time. Cheers to all who took the time to listen. Dave.

Cheers... Thanks again for the comments, yeah Styx - someone else said that the other day, I've also heard someone say Boston - both huge compliments and rather on the flattering side... Ok, yes I agree that the vocals need to be brightened up a little, Crawling and Grain were the first two...

Thanks for the feedback...! Keep it coming...! Ok, Yes, I do tend to fit too much into my songs, it's a kind of wierd style that I find hard to shake. The other two songs aren't quite as "crammed" as the first one. I am really enjoying the Fostex VF160, it's reasonably priced and very...

Sounding good... I can't give you many pointers in the way of mixing, I'm pretty new to this... But I can tell you that it sounds good to me - and a really nice song too....! Good job mate. Dave.

Ok, so I finally got round to uploading some of the work I've been doing on my new VF160. Here's a link to the Thread in the MP3 Forum - let me know what you think...! Dave.

Ok, so I have been playing with my new Fostex VF160, and here are some of the results. All songs written and performed by me, they're kinda hard edged I suppose... Follow the link to my Home Page, the MP3s are on the front page. My Home Page Cheers in advance, Dave.
