    Post your favorite production tricks!

    i personally haven't tried that..but if you listen to a lot of zeppelin and such you can hear especially in their mid-70's stuff they do that a lot...4 or 5 guitar tracks..2 OD, 1 or 2 clean, and one acoustic..or some setup like that..it makes a difference!! lol..

    Making a singer's voice not die...

    haha, well, i guess its based on preference..for some people having something stronger helps more..i do agree though, honey doesn't really help much....and for the bad breath....if you're worried about that, take some mouthwash or whatever lol :-P

    Making a singer's voice not die...

    as the singer in my band..i run into that problem a lot..loosing my voice quickly or some days not being able to do sing...all i do to warm up is to sing along to songs that i like...that i can sing to..nothing too high, and drink some warm milk before going to band practice. hope that helps

    distortion on on vocals

    i'd say maybe adjust your EQ..personally i've found that if you take a little less mid and turn down the high and mess around in that area you'll find less distortion..but the best way in my opinion when it comes to EQ'ing is just to play around with it until you find something you like. hope...

    How heavy is your guitar?

    i don't know exact measurements, but as a rule of thumb SG's are neck heavy, and Les Paul's are more heavy on the body. a good example of effects of Les Pauls on people is Jimmy Page..he can barely play standing upright now, because he has backproblems from playing years and years with his les...

    Go on or throw away?

    ^^i like it..except the part of the chorus with the "..withstand the attack" seems like its out of beat...what i mean is that i think it would be hard getting all those words in..in the same time you got four words in with the previous line

    My friend made this Rap song, what u think?

    ^i agree..the "rap golden age" is long gone...but whatever..yes, the beat is simple and stuff should be added to it ya know? plus as somebody said before it needs to be mixed better...after a while the voice gets anoying..but i guess theres nothing you can do bout that really..just turn it down
