    Relax Demo

    Well folks, "I’m from a punk rock background." is license to be wrong on matters of fact and wrong on matters of cordiality. Perhaps I could say I'm from an ambient funk background - what would that excuse me from? I know where I was in '76, where I was when I bought my 1st Damned...

    Relax Demo

    IF you read my last post you'd know why they are referred to by different names in different circumstances yet remain CYMBALS because that's what they are. I fear you are being obdurate because you don't know how to concede. It strikes me that you're of the ilk who would place their opinion...

    Relax Demo

    Things have nouns attached to them to give them a goup of sounds that can be uttered, a name, a concept and a context. Usually a thing is part of a group of similar things and they are labelled as such. Cymbals: Ride Cymbal, China Cymbal, Crash Cymbal, Hi Hat Cymbals. Jargon often replaces the...

    Headphones for flat bass - hmm. Beats maybe?

    Relax Demo

    Double tracking vocals doesn't create an echo - it creates a variation on "chorusing" which does add to the "thickness' of the combined tracks. Hi Hats - round metallic things that are mechanically banged together when not being struck by a stick or hammer = cymbals. It is a symbol of naivety or...

    Frogetting

    David, VERY cool song. The pedal seems worth the house deposit it requires in Oz. I can't see a simpler drum pattern improving the song - It's more a Keith Moon thing of playing accents to melody and movement rather than holding down 4 on the floor.

    Walk Me On the Water with Jimistone and ibleedburgundy

    The lyrics are inconsistent in terms of the picture they paint... "You did not leave your business card, your name And the ages pass, breezy winter still cuts the same Could you be right near me Though you might not be at all? But Jesus, if you hear me there’s a cold wind at my throat" The...

    Mint condition 90s Vantage for starter electric guitar?

    If it were available in Oz for $250 I'd buy it. I've owned a Vantage bass since 81. Everything about it and each other V instrument I've dealt with, is solid, well built and sounds great. V guitars usually go for $400+ on ebay.

    Finished another remix -- anything very noticeably off?

    The melody sounds incomplete because it uses the beginnings of Kurt Cobain phrases. Musically it sounds like you've used the sonics of Nirvana's MTV Live/Unplugged recordings as the template and threw in a J Masics style solo to add colour. Sliding up to the note or even through it has some...

    Digitizing/Archiving LPs with M-Audio Audiophile 2496 in Windows 7 & Audio Studio 10

    The best software I've found for this task is one that was designed and built for the purpose by someone keen on the task themselves. It's called WaveRepair and is great for cleaning up clicks, pops etc manually or automatically as well as splitting the file into tracks, EQing as needed, dealing...

    The Massacre of Bowling Green

To my ears the issues aren't mix related so I, sincerely, suggested how you might address a couple...

    The Massacre of Bowling Green

    I applaud any lampooning of Trumpalism but the satire in this falls a little short - the rhymes are a little too quick'n'easy. That acoustic is bright and though now centred the ADTish treatment hasn't helped too much - not as harsh but still harsh and now sounds "treated". The lead licks are...

    Deepmind 12 track

    Is gooood goood good. I wore blue or black denim jeans through the 80s with the occasional corduroy jeans for texture - all for work and play.

    a newer all original, called "Angel"

    "a newer all original, called "Angel"". Time and matter are relative - I don't have the time & it doesn't matter.

    original rock song- "Walked Away"

    A "simulator" is a "simulator" is a "sim". Be it hardware with a circuit or software - the point is they SIMULATE and aren't "real". If it sounds good it sounds good - there's no need to sniff that particular cork if you've opened the "simulator" bottle.

    original rock song- "Walked Away"

    "...it is a passive DI, that takes the full output of a tube amp and steps it down to LINE level, and put's it thru a cabinet filter circuit, with 3 choices of settings. kinda like approximating 3 different cab setups..." Like a speaker simulator or emulator... as it says on the page you linked...
