    Random synth sound I want to track.

    I think this is in the right forum...I not really a keyboard midi man synth dude...just a guit player.. Anyway, what makes that whirling gizmo like singing sound that is used in the beach boys' 'good vibrations' and what is my best bet at getting that sound into my DAW for a recording? Is it...

    The Reference CD dilema

    analog>>>>>>>>>Firstly, The muddle you find yourself in, I believe, is common to all songwriters when they really start to study what they're doing. I agree effects are important but a good song is a good song whatever the presentation. Sitting in our studios navel gazing and trying to create...

    is it really worth it?

    I would just like to add that I also was using a 450 pentium for a long while up until a couple of months ago....I was getting up to 20 tracks with a judicial amount of effects without much of a problem.......I hear alot of folks who complain about problems with a processor that slow but at the...

    The ULTIMATE Entry-Level Mic Pre Poll... :op

    To be honest...I figured you were probably a teenager too....probably because of the excessive use of guady typing...like d@mn...and abooot...kind of juvenile...my girlfriend in 7th grade used to write things like that....combine that with all those emoticons and your posts start to look like an...

    The Reference CD dilema

    Ok.....This how I saw it and this is how I'm seeing it now Before I started to record music I used to think that one's own style and influences was soley in terms of song structure, the types of chord progressions one writes, the types of licks one plays, the types of lyrics one writes...

    fruity loops - time signature

    I don't know about ntracks, never used it, but with fruity and Cakewalk this is easily done by just changing the time signature in Cakewalk accordingly and then importing the files from fruity loops. Why can't you do that in Ntracks?? there has got to be a way. I know that probably isn't much...

    SM 57 is garbage

    I suppose It's possible that the rapper bought the bunk one out of the bunch....maybe you should exchange it for another 57 and see if there is any difference.....If there isn't then the garbage in garbage out scenario is probably the case....also if you have a bunch of week links in your chain...

    Rock music - how important are the lyrics?

    There are tons of discs in my collection that I've listened to hundreds and hundreds of times and I still don't know the lyrics...Not because they are indeciferable but just because I really don't care what some jack ass with a guitar (like myself..he..he.) has to say about anything......except...

    this subject needed its' own thread

    hey folks.....I see you've made a thread of this....which is cool....and I'm glad that none of you took it personally; it wasn't intended to be a personal thing. I think that just after awhile I just got tired of hearing all these things in the clinic. i.e. I don't want to listen because...

    Having Difficulty Recording through Line In.

    I don't know about the muting thing though it's quite possible.....However, have you tried recording on all the channels....When I used to record with the line in on my old gaming card it only recorded when you set it to the left channel...If you recorded with it in stereo or right channel it...

    New music from me... Please destroy me ! :D

    In all due respect I don't want to start a war here BUT :D ....not every one here has been recording for 10 or 20 some odd years like some of you.....Some of us are really only capabable of putting up "rough mixes" and getting songs out of the "beta" stage is a trial. Not to mention that...

    my answers to writers block

    I'm with Badgas......I've never intentionally sat down to write a song in my life......So I too, believe it or not...have never had writers block.....I don't even know what that is....seems like something you get from trying too hard.....Most of my songs just seem to come to me as I'm sitting...

    Recording the 'Environment'

    drumset vs drum machine

    I've been using fruity loops for only about a week or so with great results...I've used many drum sequencing programs and modules in the past....mostly the boss stuff.....With fruity you can load accoustic samples (real recorded drum kits) and programming how anyway you want.....This allows you...

    ...and yet more FruityLoops...anyone

    Tom hick's way is the way to go actually....rather then submixing the drums in fruity which will cause all kinds of problems when you are mixing later on.....I should have explained that....sorry
