Back in the day, I remember bending up a coat-hanger into a circle and swiping a pair of my wife's pantyhose... Ha!

The thing is, with everyone (especially consumers) using sub-woofers now, it's sort of like a new issue to pay attention to. Or at least, needs some reconsideration.

Diaphragm rattlers, input circuitry chokers, and unintentional kick drum mockers... the ubiquitous plosive - how are you dealing with them? Best type of pop screen? In post: Snipping them off? High Shelf?

I think the customary thing is to avoid name dropping and bragging, because in the end none of that matters. What I've learned is that when the record spins, the BS stops. Everyone can tell who has done the work and who needs to work harder. Ahem... back to the topic at hand -- I haven't a/b'd...

58,000 for Cakewalk, and the next closest is Cubase with 28,000...

I didn't realize how popular Cakewalk was. I've been using it for years, but didn't know I had so much company. how many of you have tried other daw's, and why did you decide on Cakewalk?

It's supposed to do that. What it's doing is "looking ahead" to do some of the processing. This makes everything play like it's supposed to instead of having latencies like other daw's that will remain unmentioned.

I'd be proud to be misquoted by any of the esteemed members here.

Another possibility is to watch a graph to see the lowest note and do your low cut based on that. but still, It's best to get used to hearing it. The main idea is to keep from having your amp wasting a bunch of power making your woofers dance with vibrations you can't even hear. I spoke with a...

In short, the vocal was recorded with a soft headphone mix (I can tell because of how you're singing), the vocal is too loud, the vocal dynamic and compression isn't managed, and there are timing issues throughout the song. Use your daw's time stretcher (I use Sonar, but I think most of them...

Sorry man, distortion is a deal-breaker. It's back to tracking for you.

Perfectly adequate. Time to tell the local studios that you're available for doing demos (singing songwriters songs for money). I can see you buying your own car when you're 16. Go for it! PS: it will also help you get used to recording and find songs for an album. Your life is already...

Please see a neurologist. Seriously, I'm an MSN, BSN, FNP. In the meantime you can check out this dermatome chart: www .apparelyzed.com/dermatome. html

Can you let us hear the pre-master, #1, and #2 files?

Even from what I hear in Nashville, you're not a noob. If you want it to sound like a studio recording, in that space, you'll have to dry the room and teach the band to play separately... sometimes hard to do without losing the groove, but worth the effort.

lol that's funny, but seriously, I think you may be misquoting them... perhaps they said it was "dark, on the low side"? To me that would mean that it didn't capture the highs very well... Anyway, your high-pass or low cut is easily set by setting the cut close to the frequency of the lowest...

'Best not to push the vocal back in the mix, essentially your lead vocal is mono, so what you're accentuating is the stereo verb (which should be in a bus). Anyway, it sounds like you've entered the world of Sound-scape or Placement. Have fun! But the vocal should be front and center unless you...
