It's on an album. We finally released it this past Saturday. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz_kXv1fktDSKgir6ZKM0CrEEGHlULGt4

I love it. Fast, lightweight, easy to use, and inexpensive. What's not to like? If you want to know what awesome 'improvements' may make it into Pro Tools in a few years, just look at what's in the current release of Reaper...

Thank you for the kind words! The singer writes the lyrics. I've been working with him in one way or another for the past ten years and was finally provided the opportunity to join the current project and couldn't be prouder. Good catch on the hi hats. I'm always torn between audience and...

The Pleading - Decay Hi all, My band finally released an 'album' we've been working on for a while. Some of it is mellow rock, some a little harder. It's kind of 'message' music, addressing issues such as suicide prevention, spousal abuse and child abuse. it was all done in my home studio as...

There is no edit option for the original post.

Again, thanks for the feedback everyone! All of the observations and and suggestions were very helpful, not just for this song but the project as a whole. Here's the final mix:

Wah-wah pedals - awesome sounds and tones in the right hands (feet?), but for most they would be more appropriately called Ow-ow pedals.

Thanks! Like I mentioned previously, I don't think I'm even using the hi-hat mic. I dunno, maybe duck the OHs with it? I definitely need to look at that though. I can probably get away with bringing the 'verb down during the quiet part. The singer was not happy when I brought it down to where...

Thank you! I'll play around with that!

Thanks! That's actually a lot drier that the singer originally wanted. Lots of comments on the hi-hat, definitely an area to revise. I can't recall offhand if the hi-hat mic is even in the mix. I have a tendency to put my bass parts pretty far back.

First off, thanks everyone for the feedback! The singer is a good friend of mine, I've known him for years, but this is the first time we've been in a band together. He're really insecure about his vocals, likes them drenched in reverb and really low. I've had to fight to get him to accept as...

Other than the bass poking out a little bit on the lower notes and the snare sounding a little over compressed it's good.

Overall volume is fine. What do you want to be louder? And why? The dynamics are really good, if you bring up the quieter notes it would suck some of the life out of it IMHO.

Never used the 990, but I have a pair of 992s and really like them. They're a little bright, as mentioned earlier and yes, they do accentuate sibilants and plosives when used for vocals. They're a bit on the bright side, and it's easy to get a harsh sound if not placed properly. But overall...

Hi everyone. This is my first try at mid/side on acoustic guitar. I'm not sure about the balance between the acoustic and electric guitars. Most of the acoustic tracks are doubled on electric, and the guitarist keeps wanting the acoustic turned down to where I consider it basically inaudible...

Just did an EP for a band who just wanted to do one pass of repeating parts then copy and paste it. It worked OK, but not my preferred way of doing things. IMHO, the live take of the run-through of the songs prior to "tracking" sound much better, more 'real.'

I've seen the pinch roller mechanism get gummed up on these causing the symptom you initially described. They're not a bad machine, definitely consumer grade. If memory serves me right, we used to be able to calibrate to about 20-16K response on 456 back in the day @7.5 ips with good, fresh heads.

The GoldTone Microbass strings get significantly less sticky with use. I picked mine up on the way to some road gigs and hated it halfway through the first set. I've been playing it consistently for the last year and the strings get kind of a hard sheen to them and are much easier to play. Even...

If you have a dealer in your area, try a Gold Tone Microbass fretless. Those are about as close as you can get with an electric. They still have the funky rubber stings, and they're quite sticky when new but after you play it for a while they lose most of the stickiness.
