    Hi there! I haven't received the weekly newsletter in over a month and I posted asking what happened but got no response. Is it still going out or has it been cancelled? Thanks!

    Bad pick, No donut

    I have had this same problem crop up on me! Fairly recent, say the last year or so. I have no idea why it's happening but I can be right in the middle of a nice solo (well, nice for me) and suddenly I'm missing the strings completely and the pick has turned sideways in my hand. It actually...

    World's Goin' Down" - acoustic/electric rocker

    My wife has the Taylor Mini and I have a Seagull Original S6 and I love the way it sounds! You did a great job of capturing them!

    World's Goin' Down" - acoustic/electric rocker

    Dig it! Cool tune! Slide tone sounds great. Vocals are nice and clear. Acoustic's sound great! What are they and how are they recorded? Mic'd or DI? Good job all around on this one!

    Is there a wall between the 2 rooms? If so, knock it down and make it ONE room. ;)

    Oddball Covers-Post 'em if you got 'em

    I recorded that back around 2005. That's Rami playing drums!

    Oddball Covers-Post 'em if you got 'em

    Ok, for some reason the Soundcloud link won't work so here's an alternate. EDIT: This is how I thought the song should have been done in the first place. ;) The Letter

    Go-to Mic for Voice Over work

    In response to an email that I sent, Robert Clotworthy (narrator for Ancient Aliens, The Curse Of Oak Island and SO much more!) said: "I use a Sennheiser 416 for most auditions as it is the industry standard and the mic most likely to be used at a session. For narration or animation I use the...

    DIY Guitar Case Rack

    I couldn't hang my guitars in the closet. That's where my cases are. But I love the drawer idea!

    Stacking compression effects. Valid, or unforgivable crime against recording methods?

    I hate that! Years ago when I first started mixing, I had a song to the point that it sounded good TO ME. When I asked for critiques on a forum (my have been this one!), the overwhelming majority of people said it was smashed to death and sounded horrible. But it sounded good TO ME. So, if it...

    What drives you crazy about tutorial videos?

    I hate inconsistency in the "instruction" videos. They'll talk about how they use a particular plugin for a particular thing and explain why they use it, usually because someone ELSE told them to. Then 10 videos down the road, they've suddenly changed how they use that particular plugin, or they...

    a new one from the new album: "Yesterday"

    Cool tune! Mix sounds pretty good and even to me. The ending kind of sneaked up on me. I guess I was expecting another verse or chorus or something after the solo part. Good job!

    Compressor Uses

    On the other hand, strumming loud and fingerpicking softly is called dynamics. Do you really want both at the same level?

    The Mighty Quinn.....a speed recording challenge.

    Sounds great as always, Bro. I do agree that the guitar/flute sounds a bit thin but the rest is you all the way. Good job!

    Ah what the hell. Might as well post this.

    Personally, Rami, I think you could get great results with junk. You have great instincts and recording/mixing skills.

    Ah what the hell. Might as well post this.

    I always end up saying the same thing over and over when you post a new tune so I'll just say, "I like it!"

    A softer, gentler Rami......:D

    Good job as usual, Rami! I think the BGV's aren't at your usual level. They sound incredible but they are usually a bit more prominent. Could that be because your lead vocal is louder than you normally have it and it is overshadowing the BGV's? Dunno. But there is something different there... at...

    How to make a YouTube video become popular?

    You almost need someone to do that stuff for you or you'll never have time to work on something new.
