Recording is humbling as it exposes all my playing inadequecies and Im forever redoing to try and make it sound better, on the flip side the enforce practice steepens the learning curve for both playing and recording

I really enjoyed the arrangement and melody I find Im not listening to the words too much as the song is very up beat and happy

Ok here it is next step record it! instrumental intro Well Im halfway there now, Oh how the time has flown Id like to think that deep down inside Ive grown either way there's no going back no starting over. I cant say////////// that Id do it just the same Cause I know I have given and...

hey thanks for the reply re tracion and midi questionsI didnt know the sampler functioned like that I find its a painstaking procedure to pencil out a drum beat but perhaps it getts better as you get used to it

Hi all Ive got a couple questions that I hope have generic answers First Im using Makie Traction 2 , usb interface and a Yamaha E403 Keyboard Im a complete noob to midi but was able to get the keyboard sequencing notes on a midi track in traction from the yamaha sound menu Traction comes loaded...

Now dont you purist get all bent outa shape Im just stating observations and asking questions. Im in a small 3 piece band and we all have our own dynamic mics for shows and I did a comparison between the three above mentioned mics . with identical gain settings etc I found that my Xm 8500 was...

Cheers fellas All great suggestions and the mic switch would be a real laugh Im not a man who enjoys confrontation and usualy try to be diplomatic in all instances but at our last practise became very "blunt about the situation" and hopefully this will have cured the problem thanks for the ear DD

lets use crowded house U better be home soon verse if im correct is C Am Em G7 C Am Em G7 Chorus C C7 F or some derivative G C now the bridge starts: Bb D G Bb A7 D Absolute classic bridge but why ? Whats the relationship between C and Bb thats makes such a nice transition ?

Thanks for the info Its suprising as my son has a japanese squire strat from early 80's and he had it valued at 850 or so by several folks he knew that were in the know Once again I appreciate the info cheers DD

A friend of mine has asked me if i knew what value his 80,s Jap strat would have I was hoping some of you fine folk would know Ser # E836449 Made in Japan standard 3 single configuration I realize value is dependant on condition so assume its avg thanks DD:)

That sounds like a hit! but seriously, I understand the lyrical aspects of it but its the composition of the melody that intrigues me.

Is there a thoery behind what makes a bridge fit ? for instance if there is a three chord progression is there a logical bridge that fits? Is there a generic description of what the vocal melody is doing in comparison to the body and chorus of a song that could be used? Please feel free to use...

Im amazed at how thick some people can be , I play in a three piece irish type band and do 90 % of the singing , I have a band mate that seems to need to reintroduce the song after ive done my spiel and its driving me bonkers . You try to say something witty and build a rapore with your audience...

Ive just walked on a band Ive been playing with for a year now for many reasons but the sound on stage and the lack of desire to do a proper sound check was the biggie for me, Ive got a real strong voice but end up hoarse and unable to speak after trying to hear myself over the egos of the band...

tempo changes As someone new to recording I have found it very humbling to try and lay down good tracks, I never realized how when playing live, solo usualy I would use speed as a dynamic to give my performance more body or color but when I attempted to record to a click track it all went to...
