    upsampling then converting too mp3?

    You can't make somthing out of nothing. And upsampling attemps to do exactly that. Recording at a higher sample rate in the first place allows D/A conversion to move noise into higher frequencies to be filtered out, but people can't hear much above 16khz anyway so there is quite a bit of room...

    upsampling then converting too mp3?

    It looks as if you are describing a bit rate conversion, not the effects of upsampling. F.S.

    Gonna try this again.

    Thanks guys. I think I may continue the second solo and drop back into the chorus but solo through it with singing as well. I have considered adding some backing vocals in a higher register in the second chorus. I actually want to be carefull not to add too much excitement. If the backing...

    MPA Gold Tube replacement suggestions

    I got two mullard mu-12ax7. They do pretty good. They break up better are much warmer when pushed than the stock tubes. Total of $45.85 matched and balanced triods, including shipping. I got mine from the tube depot. They are cheapys but, they are better than the stock tubes for sure. F.S.

    Drum Check, please comment.

    I'll try and listen more tomorrow. I just shut everything down for the night. I only listened to the drum check track. I did not see that you had two you wanted listened to. The drum check track is def low on kick bottom. My monitors represent lows very well. F.S.

    new song (alternativeish) - mix suggestions

    Cool Stuff! Love the drums That kick is great. On the vox I think you have a bit too much around 700hz or so. It's a bit thick and masking. In the verse I would try pulling a little around there more compression if possible to even the levels out a bit. You may have to just boost up some soft...

    could really use a second set of ears. glen,greg, mshilarious?

    I dialed in some mids to the whole mix on my board around 3k give or take and it didn't totaly fix it but, it made a big difference. I thought it would make some things too sharp but it didn't seem to. F.S.

    could really use a second set of ears. glen,greg, mshilarious?

    This is really cool stuff! The guitars are a bit too much mid scooped. A liittle 2.5k or so would liven them up maybe not on all of them? The kick needs top and bottom to me. more 60hz and if you havent boosted 4k try boosting that with the kick solo'd until you get a good click going. More...

    Drum Check, please comment.

    Sounds pretty good to me. The kicks a little shy on bottom end. Once you get it in a mix I think you'll need to add some cetered around 60 hz or so. Bout as much as I can say without it being in a song. Good Job! F.S.

    Gonna try this again.

    Hmmm? I click it with explorer and it opens windows media right away. The site is a windows based site. I don't know if that could do it? You could try right clicking it and see if it will let you save it.... Thanks for letting me know. F.S.

    Gonna try this again.

    OK, up loaded a new file. If this doesn't work then I think it's time to format and reload the comp:( This is a work in progress. Not sure how I am going to finish this out, It only has two verses but it's 4:20 long. Might just extend the solo and come back into the chorus? Anyway, the drums...

    WIP, Slave to Me

    Hmmm. No pitch shifting. It's triple tracked with waves doubler on the main vox as an effect. I don't know why it stopped? I will have to look at that tomorrow. Thanks BH

    WIP, Slave to Me

    This song has some obvious issues, especially where the solo's are. So there sill be some retracking on on sections of guitar and I think I'll end up retracking drums. let me know what you think. Have not decided how to end it yet either. Thought someone might have an idea? let me know what...

    Please Review Powerpop Song

    I'd drop the gain on the doubled part or parts and it might sound a little less chorusy. I have never been able to use the doubler without it sounding more like an effect to me but, it can do some interesting things. F.S.

    Please Review Powerpop Song

    Are the vocals double tracked or are you using a doubler on main vocal track the track? I know when I listened waves doubler cam to mind. F.S.

    And while we are on brain tricks. You can always depend on the fact that generally a listeners brain will add in any lacking low end. I totally agree with having reference material. This is not pertaining to you Lee but, I am going to mention it here. People keep saying that they understand...

    spectral balance

    Well a shelve is a different animal all together and should not be compared to HIGH PASS ;) Personally I don't like using the term "low cut" because taken literally it could refer to a low shelf used in a cutting way. But since a low shelf can either boost or reduce the low end I think that "low...

    spectral balance

    I think we're talking semantics here. Is it an A sharp or a B flat? Does it matter? Discussing the semantics just confuses people. If it has a constant downward slope then call it what you want but, when you say high pass people know what you are talking about. That's what matters. F.S.

    Well it's been a while. I don't know why I thought you had a mastering studio? That's why I though some of your comments so odd? Lmao! That's what I get for dropping in once every year or so lately. F.S.

    spectral balance

    Well, I think you are taking two or three different statements I made and smashing them together. In general if you have to get two competing instruments to separate so both are heard hopefully you are only talking about making one or two fairly narrow adjustments from 1 to 3 dB's. That is not...
