    **Final Mix?** Ready for mastering house?

    http://www.nowhereradio.com/MCGitarz/singles Mstr - Never Say I'm Sorry Again Good day!! Be forewarned - I'm asking you to listen to some bluegrass. I know now why it's better to have someone else do the mixing on a project - this is making me crazy - every little dB of EQ or one little tweak...

Nonetheless here's a new one to rake over the coals - it needs some serious help 'cause I tried some new things. http://www.nowhereradio.com/MCGitarz (Album "Songs...

    A few kind words for all of you out there

    It just occurred to me that I've been associated with this board for about 2 months. I just checked my download file (pile) and counted 212 tunes that I've downloaded from you folks. That's a helluva lot of music! I've received very nice comments on the tunes I've posted as well as some...

    The Excitable Boy is Gone, Too

    I join you in mourning the passing of Johnny Cash - but since we're taking some space here for reflection and appreciation, let's take another pause for Warren Zevon. I have no decent recording of my playing his work, but I never played a solo gig without playing one of his tunes. His influence...

    Dancing with Moe

    Hi folks I don't record c_ver tunes a lot. But a friend asked me to do this for her. When I played solo this was her favorite song and she wanted to know what I would sound like with a band. This has acoustic (mic'd with an SM57), acoustic/electric, bass, organ and kickin' drums. (I used...

    Had to try it - acapella

    I couldn't help myself - it sounded like a lot of fun and it really turned out to be quite tricky. The song is a civil war folk song I heard around 1960 recorded by Theodore Bikel. There were no harmonies - just TB and his guitar. I went from the mic to the ART preamp through a noise gate so I...

    Another hillbilly tune

    Hi folks - got a new mandolin a couple weeks ago so I wrote a tune to try it out. It's called 'Amanda' and it's here: http://www.nowhereradio.com/MCGitarz/singles The mix has issues: a.) I hate the guitar sound - I'm blaming it on the Elixir strings - I never had trouble with the guitar...

    Is it the mic or the mix?

    Y'all have been pretty busy out here - so I'm adding another tune - just what you need!! I re-cut a song called "To A Friend" found here: http://www.nowhereradio.com/MCGitarz/singles OK - 'the strings' emanate from a $200 Yamaha thing - can't help that. I think the guitars sound pretty good -...

    One for the hillbillies out there

    I was test driving an old Fender Allegro banjo this weekend - think I'll keep it. This mix maybe needs a little help. I added rhythm mandloin for the very first time - ran it straight up the middle. But it wasn't easy getting Gtr, Banjo, Mando, bass and three voices spaced sonically. Advice...
