    How Do these beats sound to you (All Feed Returned)

    nice stuff, sounds good. Rain is dope for sure. The only thing is that a lot of them seem to have the same instruments in them, it kinda makes them all sound the same, I particularly noticed the string/orchestral samples. Try and find some fresh samples in your library or buy some sample packs.

    Parkol – A song without words doesn’t make it worse

    Sounds good, I'm not into the style of music but it sounds right. As for the video, is it supposed to be a music video? Some of it was cool but I think you could have made it more about the music. Right now its a little home-movie, looks like some kinda fast paced travel video. But there were...

    Rhythmikinesis!

    Yo everybody, after about a year in the making, I just finished my first album. Check it out. It was a ton of fun and a great learning experience. I could probably keep editing it forever but I had to say enough is enough, so hopefully it sounds good. Any comments on any (or all) of it would be...

    New Beat: "TIME"

    Yeah man chill indeed, it sounds good. About the snare, the sound of it doesn't bother me, but a good reverb might be nice. Hit me up for a jam sometime

    Wow, not much happenin around here...I just wanted to drop by and give it a bump as well as some more specific comments than what I gave before. Most of these suggestions are nitpicking but these are my notes after a second listening. Take my comments with a grain of salt though, I'm still wet...

    Compression and tracking

    I don't like hamming it unless it's something like screaming vocals or something really dynamic like that. Unless you know what you want and how to get there with the compressor, I wouldn't do it, cuz otherwise you're stuck with it.

    Another Mixing Contest: Back By Popular Demand

    Tough choice indeed, It's really a toss-up between my first three choices but if I had to put it in order it would be as follows: 1. mix 2 -clear and balanced 2. mix 5 -very smooth with good depth 3. mix 4 -good balance but a bit bassy 4. mix 1 -too much high bass/low mids but it kind of works...

    Another Mixing Contest: Back By Popular Demand

    Finally got a chance to do it, glad I didn't miss the deadline. Still, I might upload another because I haven't checked this one on anything but my monitors. I had a lot of trouble with the bass. Anyway, hope you like my mix. And nice song by the way, I really liked the vocal harmonies.

    Tascam US-122mkII audio interface Question

    Oh, I thought you just wanted the sound to come out of your computer speakers. But yes, set the soundcard to the tascam and you should be able to use headphones through it. Just plug them into the headphone out and there should be a 'input/computer' knob on the tascam, turn it to the 'computer'...

    Tascam US-122mkII audio interface Question

    I'm not familiar with cubase but you should be able to go to your ins and outs or your audio options and change your output from the tascam to your computer's soundcard. Or get some speakers and plug them into the tascam.

    Phantom power on Dynamic mic?

    I don't think it should. I believe only ribbon mics can be damaged by phantom power

    New Xmas Song

    Something weird about the vocals, maybe a little too bright, but they were cool. I'm diggin' the instrumentation on this too. Christmas Noel is pretty funny Merry Christmas!
