    Virtual guitar amps/analog guitar amps

    I have been using a sim lately, had to sell my amp a couple years ago when I lost my biz. I used to have a 60s Fender Super Reverb and would never have dreamed of playing un-amped, but I can't afford a rich-man amp for what they go for these days. I use guitar rig 5 now and it sounds pretty good...

    The Obamacare Song?

    Trying to remain objective since I'm uninsured, but I like a song that develops as this one does. Nice use of tempo shifts and instrumentation. The lead part sounds like a French horn, was that a keyboard patch ? It has a nice natural attack. The one thing I noticed was it seemed a little light...

    mixing on headphones

    I have a pair of AKG K-240 MKII that I love and weren't expensive, they go for under $120. I'm a proponent of listening on multiple systems as well and I particularly like checking a mix out in my car. Also, there are a few plug-ins available for headphone monitoring that will emulate a...

    Woke Up Dead again........

    Yes. Just a great song and great production, I had mentioned the drums in your previous post, but they feel more present in this version. I love what you've done with the chorus, the change-up with the rhythm guitar works great and so does the resolution via the "down"s (I'm a resolution guy). I...

    What does this need?

    That's just awesome, she should be thrilled! The drums have just the right feel on this to me. I like the guitars too, though the lower part felt like it needed a little more body when you were hitting it harder in the later parts. I think a cello would sound good in there, but so would a sax or...

    Transmit The Dead [Modern Rock/Metal]

    That's a cool song, you have a great metal voice.Performance and recording all sound very well done to me. I only wish I could make out the growling screams in the chorus better, not louder just more defined in the mix. Same thing for what sounded like some nice echoing guitar work at the end of...

    A new track (IN PROGRESS)

    I like the change up in the beats, I like the sounds introduced in the last 3rd of the song. I'm still a little bored by the sounds of the chorded parts in first 3rd of the song because they sound like a lot of stuff I've heard. I also like how you used delay on some parts. I still would like to...

    Link coming back? I wanted to hear also.

    Robot

    Isaac would be proud. I like the transitions in this piece, some nice sounds with complimenting textures. I also like the sound of the main arp with the distorted edge, it kind of blended with the bass at times though and I wanted to hear it resonate more when there was space. I usually like...

    Another song by some old fart (newbie) with banjos and dobros and stuff in it....AND

    Yes, I like that one too. You get a nice foundation from your nice solid bass and the drum tracks, which are competently done and the samples aren't bad. I thought your wife was having a little trouble with the key, she sounds great but fades out on the lower parts. I don't use Melodyne, but...

    Lend Ears For a Punk Rock Mix

    Sounds better than I thought it could, you did a great job with some good advice.

    Werewolf song

    That's just nasty. There's a lot to like about that song but the production and performance outshines it. Great playing, nice sounds -I really liked the bells towards the beginning, and very well put together. I listened to the video and it really kicks ass.

    Hold Me Together

    Man, this is a great song - sweet to listen to. I like the sound of everything, but I love the song. Bass, drum, guitar and vocal sounds are all real nice, fit well and suit the song. I heard some timing things also but mostly between the bass and drums. Bass sounded high to me, but I would...

    Hey Guys Im back! :) Please criticize my vocals/mixing again. :)

    Sounds like a good song in there. I think your voice is good, but maybe you wrote this recently and haven't played it much? More practice and you'll have it down and record a better performance. Sounds like a flanger on the guitar? You might want to record the guitar straight and mix the flange...

    Another song by some old fart (newbie) with banjos and dobros and stuff in it....AND

    Sounds good, the midi drums weren't crappy at all! They did have a little robotism to them, but the beat could sound that way with a human since it's pretty straight. Love the bass tone and your banjos and dobros sound good too. I listened on headphones and somehow felt like much of it was...

    A new track (IN PROGRESS)

    I'm gonna start by saying this ain't my genre, as a qualifier. However, I do listen to all kinds of music, just don't MAKE all kinds. The thing I have noticed that stands out on really creative tracks like this is the ability to shift gears effortlessly at different points in the song to...

    Listen Young Man

    I hear a good deal more of the parts this time, particularly the percussion. Vocal sounds great too. I still like the bass part but something about the way it's mixed is making it too dominant to me, I'm still thinking EQ but a small drop in level might do as well. Something like that could also...

    Listen Young Man

    That's an interesting sound, I like the guitar work also - it's kind of hypnotic. I like the droning bass too, I think the effect works well against the movement of the guitars, but I would prefer to boost a mid freq somewhere on it just to give it some definition. The kick sounds like you've...

    Woke Up Dead

    Another fine song and recording here to my ears. You've several things I really like, the way the rhythm guitar plays with the bass like they are one instrument, it works well with a heavy song because it creates some thick bones to hang all the rest on. The second rhythm is great, occupies a...
