    "Silverstone" time

    thanks for chiming in raymond... it's mostly subjective, i know, but i don't want the drums to cover up the instruments, just to give as much punch to the bass and guitars as i can try to blend them together... on certain playback systems, the drums sound perfect to me, but on others, they seem...

    "Silverstone" time

    ok, direct mix question: are the drums a bit too loud in this, or just right? i'm thinking i can take them down a bit. this is a new mix.

    Compressing Acoustic Guitars, and the dichotomy between what's said and what's done

    I USE hardware compression going in, parallel compression on the acoustic buss, and light compression on the track at mixdown. the hardware compression gives me color, and tames just the peaks, makes it much more mixable... the parallel compression on the buss, lets me dial in the final level...

    Using two compressors, yes or no

    A good technique to learn is parallel compression.

    Anyone experimented much with the impact of where in a room you set up a guitar amp?

    that guitar sounds great as is. thing is, if you HAVE a great sounding room, then moving the cabs ( and the 2nd mic, if you are capturing the room sound) makes sense... but these days, with the advent of IR's being able to put your sound in ANY room you could imagine, it makes more sense to...

    "Worlds Goin' Down"

    well, i never try to write a song to 'sound' like anything else, these things just kind of happen on their own. if it happens to sound like a joe walsh thing it's just a happy accident

    dbx 160 UAD (dbx 160 VU compressor)

    howdy ho porterhouse! heh.. thanks for listening. all those guitar tones, right out of a Strymon Iridium pedal. fun unit to play with. that drum track, is an older drum track that i had written years ago in Sony Acid, which is LONG gone from my system, so i kind of have to live with it, if i...
