Do you mean in your headphones, you hear your voice twice while you are recording? how about afterwards, and you play it back? My guess is it's a simple matter of selecting "direct monitoring" in your interfaces properties. Or something quite similar. It might be that you are just noticing...

[disclaimer-listening on shitty headphones] I'm hearing some distortion and a few pops here and there. The song itself is interesting and has a unique sound to it. Reminds me of Travis. It just seems a bit too muddy in spots -the vocals in particular. I'd pull some of the fx back on the...

Since I'm posting non-helpful stuff, I thought I'd comment on this (which also was not at all helpful, but rather just a straight up insult). Anyway, "2nd knuckle"? I just tried that with all 8 fingers, and both thumbs, and couldn't get anywhere close to the 2nd knuckle. Frankly, getting much...

I feel like I've stumbled onto the secret "English as a 3rd Language" portion of HR.com.... *backs out slowly...* [that's right, this post was not helpful. whooptie doo.]

For what its worth, I'd be willing to chip in lead vocals for a verse or something. What the hell. I sing lead for my real band, and that's where people know who I am. I guess if I suck in the face of a bunch of internet robots, who cares. ;)

Yeah, I pretty much only very slightly knew what the hell I was talking about, hence all my disclaimers and invites for others to correct me. However, on wavs with DC voltage problems that I've seen, there is always noise around zero (on one side), even when there is no music. It sounds like...

You and at least two other people that I know of....:eek: While we obviously need someone to do a legit mix at the end, I'd say we need someone to rough mixes along the way, so that people only need to send/recieve a stereo backing track to play their part along to. I guess I just don't want...

Ukes are super fun. I have one that I bought as a souvenier in Hawaii on my honeymoon. It's got horrible intonation, etc., but it's fun to play, no doubt. I too would really like one that plays in tune up the neck, etc. Unfortunately it's down pretty far on my wish list....

Sleighbell solo? OK, I'll shut up now...

Good call on the sleighbells in Airbag. I'm always impressed when they are used and the result isn't "Christmasy." Certainly that's a great example. That would be quite the juxtaposition!

To me, this was most evident when she is copying the melody of the Beethoven part. I'd be inclined to not sing in unison with the piano, but rather sing a straight note. Whatever the first note is, on "you" just sing the rest of the line at the same pitch. You'd have to try it to see if it...

Sweet. I'll keep an eye on this thread. I've been looking forward to working on something different. I've been buried by the same few songs for months now. I'm gonna rock ass on that triangle!

Now that's funny. Hey, I'd be interested in getting in on this action, by the way. The trouble is I suck at everything. At least I suck more than everyone else that's already participating. Things I play poorly: Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar (I recently set up my guitar for lap steel, but...

Yep. .

I've had that happen a few times. Fortunately, like you said, it's so obvious it can't be overlooked. If, say, you have two vocal tracks panned left and right, and you get to a line that is identical on both, it's like someone grabbed your ears and pulled them towards the middle for a second...

Someone smarter than me can probably clear this up, but I beleive as long as the rest point (i.e. when there is no sound) is at zero, it's not a DC issue. Some wavs are just more lopsided in one direction. the wav is just a representation of how the air moves. Think of a speaker: if it's got...

Don't rule out the compressor as a good tool to help your mixes. It can make your vocals sit in the mix much better, add punch to your bass, add sustain to your guitar, etc. LOTS of uses within the mix, other than just to squish living shit out of the mix. Only when it's misused. When used...

That was fantastic! :D

That post is a year and a half old.

If you (whomever) require rhythm and melody to be classify something as music, then I simply suggest you turn this piece up. There are bits and pieces that rise up out of the soundscape througout it with those elements. They are just sparse. Anyway, I like it. I certainly wouldn't want a...
