    Ps-6

    anybody use event ps-6's? i do. I noticed in the past few musician's friend catalogues, they've mistakenly printed the description of the ps-6 beside a picture of a ps-5. this post is being made to break a 15 day long dry spell.

    My First Attempt - Comments welcome

    how does one go about hearing the song? i'm able to read the contents of the page, but it lacks a particularlly important component. maybe it's my computer, or maybe i'm retarded.... either way.

    Criticism, Please

    i'm not certain if tripod has an hourly bandwidth limitation, but it works now. shackrock: i used the autotune plugin on hi ho stereo. fed: i think i know what you mean about the clicking and distortion. it might be the mp3 compression because i can't hear it in the original.

    Criticism, Please

    thanks for the feedback hitherto. the compliments are encouraging, but i am still interested in improving the track, as the elements used to create it don't exactly follow textbook standards. my efforts to fix some things (make vocals more clear) seem to completely fuck the song up...

    Criticism, Please

    hi. hey, here's an idea: listen to this song and tell me what might make it better. I'm especially interested in improving levels and frequencies. The song is called Beta Blocker. http://keepitdown.tripod.com/songs.htm thanks.

    Be My Monitors

    thanks for more feedback. i have an sm58 which i believe is dynamic. i was using a homemade pop screen... i suppose it's time to invest in one with fewer holes. the guitar does sound strange. i'm having more trouble tracking a decent guitar than anything else. every tutorial i've read says to...

    Be My Monitors

    thanks for feedback. i listened to the track this evening and am debating over whether or not to add a bass line. if the kick controls the lows, would the bass compensate for the mid-range deficiency?

    Be My Monitors

    hi. i'm sick and tired of cross-monitoring and making tiny adjustments based on car stereos and my grandma's jambox. basically, i wish to take the effort out of mixing by passing the burden along to you. if you are sonically attune, please listen to this song and tell me what needs fixed. if...

    Vocal Compression LIVE (?)

    compressed vocals sound nice in a recording. How legitimate would live compression be at a regular show? would it produce the same effect as when recorded? is live vocal compression a common thing? (it sounds like the strokes compress the hell out of their vocals, the eels too. maybe not, i...

    Guitar Sounds Dull

    hi. i've been playing my current guitar for several years without any problems, and the last time i changed the strings, i noticed that they weren't ringing out for as long as they used to. some of the strings sound dull (low e, and d in particular) as if my sleeve is resting on them (but i...

    Vocal removal if I have THESE... ( CHECK! )

    exactly like source code. when a person "compiles" his/her tracks, the source components can't be precisely manipulated. (from my experience, anyway)

    Mandolin -- Simple Question

    i see... so it would just be: G,G D,D A,A E,E ? and each pair is tuned exactly the same?

    Mandolin -- Simple Question

    hi. I bought an old mandolin at a garage sale and it doesn;t have any strings on it. I bought a pack today, and there are 2 Es, 2 As, 2 Ds and 2 Gs. i;m wondering... what order do i put these strings on? thanks.

    2 Acoustic parts

    thanks for responding. i understand the rhythm part, but i'm unclear about harmony. if i have a chord progression that goes: D, D7, G, G7 should both guitars be playing these chords in different patterns?

    Vocal removal if I have THESE... ( CHECK! )

    yeah, if you processed the mix, or if frequencies in the rest of the mix are stepping on the vocals, the noise reduction can only come so close. there isn't any way to just scratch the vocals and end up with a pristine mix, without the tracks.

    2 Acoustic parts

    hi. I've started an acoustic project with 2 guitar players. it's kind of western swing / bluegrass kind of thing and i'm having a really hard time writing 2 guitar parts that work well together. Is there a scientific approach, or some trick to writing 2 different, but compatible lines? we...

    Vocal removal if I have THESE... ( CHECK! )

    I only read about 10% of your posts because my attention span is very low, but if you have a solo vocal track, and you're trying to remove the same vocal track from a mix, just use CE's noise reduction and set the precision very high.

    Red Rover

    hi. i don't have any experience with red rover, but when you record in cool edit, if you return the cursor to the beginning of the track, you can re-record over it without deleting it. you can control the cursor with red rover so it would be possible to do so thus. i personally don't have a...
