    First mix bad!!

    Riffnsnatch lives on in quotations...Aristotle and many others "live" in even less association with the reality of that which they were than he. The song's not bad..shades of Zappa but the voice does seem to reach it's limits and go beyond a couple of times. No probs hearing & understanding the...

    Real or Imagined Panning

    Use a pair of mics and you get stereo...no matter how slight there'll be a difference. Panned hard you'll get the closest to what you captured. Panned & any other way is you deciding what sounds best to you...all win.

    Recording Heavy Guitars; Crackling Noise

    HEAVY guitars aren't THAT heavy when recorded. Pull the gain & level back - if you DAW signal sounds messed up it probably too much of everything all at once. Record a second track as close to the original as you can. hard panned double guitar gives heft, heaviosity and tone.

    Recycling for the planet.

    I don't want a studio....... I want Bradland....

    You initial idea is sound. Miro's space is truly magnificent but is, to all intents and purposes, barren. A laptop, interface and headphones can, and probably will, produce more music heard & enjoyed by more people. Don't let gearlust/penis envy get in the way of doing something decent for...

    Footprints Under The Pumpkin

    It's a live wire of potential Stratmonkey. I like it and look forward to developments.

    from "Elemental", a rocking tune called "Center of Everywhere"

    "A doppelgänger (/ˈdɒpəlɡɛŋər, -ɡæŋər/; German: [ˈdɔpl̩ˌɡɛŋɐ] (listen), literally "double-walker") or doppelganger is a biologically unrelated look-alike, or a double, of a living person." Nice to see that no matter how much the world changes sophistry and self belief can still build brick walls...

    Solved another new one

    The font makes for rushed attempts at reading given the general visual confusion it offers added to the transitions and short time on screen of each phrase/line/part. Frankly the song would sound better if I hadn't read the lyrics...they aren't enhanced by text.

    Hungry Mile

    Two Dogs, sounds nice, but VERY polite. Luckily the lyric is much grittier. There's a volume lift at about 1.35 which seems a little artificial. It does need a bass to pin it down. Very nice songwriting. REMEMBER the Forum Maxim: To more YOU comment on the work of others the more THEY'LL...

    a Bats Brew Halloween tune: "The Payment (werewolf song)"

    Sarcasm? Me? If sarcasm doesn't become me then perhaps I become sarcasm. Osmosis works in weird, yet wonderful, ways its evolution to perform.

    a Bats Brew Halloween tune: "The Payment (werewolf song)"

    Oh, Chili, I'm terribly sorry I upset you. All I did was point out the obsessive self promotion of a chap who could easily write about creatures under the bridge. Hey, I could've mentioned that he's posted fewer commentaries on other people's work that the total number of times he's re-posted...

    a Bats Brew Halloween tune: "The Payment (werewolf song)"

    You should pay more attention - it's an annual post - since I started lurking and posting in 2006. It doesn't really hold up to annual inspection - I think of it as a road worthiness check & send it back for more work each time.

    a Bats Brew Halloween tune: "The Payment (werewolf song)"

    The high concept of the album would be to include each posted iteration of this song in HR history onto one disc, (may need two though). The Title: Wolfman Marks Territory -subtitled Hallo Weeing. It could be the Eraser Head of Amateur Music, (without the insanity & creativity of the movie), and...

    a new one from the new album: "Yesterday"

    Yeah, there's little energy in the vocal performance. "bite" - you made me laugh. Well done.

    Guitar tones.

    How does one create a beautiful guitar tone on FLStudio 12 using VSTs? One tries but doesn't achieve beauty. Listen to Farview, he'll guide you safely and less subjectively.

    Recording Bass at home.

    Behringer BDI21 is a very good clone of the Sansamp and gives you a great DI signal as well as "sculpting" options. A little outboard compression is great if you haven't rehearsed the lines so that they can be played evenly. ITB: some more compression if needed for even levels and tweak...

    Zoom R16 Multitrack SD recorder & interface

    I have one that I use for recording away from home. I have alos used it at home as an interface to Reaper. It's pretty good ONCE I learnt the way things are set up and such. It's VERY light and needs to be treated carefully as a drag on a cable would easily pull it off a surface. Only 2 mic...
