when you say "one track" do you mean played back together as a single performance, or do you mean you want two tracks, but ultimately you're going to want them in mono? There's, um, a lot of ways to do this, but if I wanted one performance of acoustic guitar, and one performance of flute, and...

Is there any way you CAN record a chord with that C note in it that also has this resonance? Guitars are just resonant beasts, listening to this solo'd, it's not really jumping out at me as problematic (though, it also sounds nothing like the slight resonance I heard in the video of someone...

Not at a place where I can listen to the clip I'm afraid. The sort of snarky, flip, but honestly probably best answer here is "hit delete, then practice and re-record so it's not shaky." That's probably best practice but maybe still not super helpful. Is your issue pitch wobbliness, or...

Trimming out sound before or after the start of a vocal is pretty easy. Removing noise from a part of the file where the vocal IS singing, that's a lot harder. There are noise reduction plugins but Ive rately found them transparent for steadty state hiss, and they're not very good for one off...

This also feels a bit like spam, somehow? New member, no follow-up posts in the thread, looks like there's some sort of referral data in the links themselves, eyeballing it, and a lot of that stuff can monetize tangentially related purchases even weeks after the fact... Plus, this is a pretty...

I'm not in front of my home computer and wouldn't trust the headset I have here for anything approaching critical listening, but I'll try to listen in the next couple days after work some night.

I've never been a Gibson guy, feel or sound, but that's a nice looking Strat, and it's from the same general era as my main Strat (a '97). Looks to be the same basic specs, though mine's maple/alder, and I've modded it pretty heavily. QC was still a little hit or miss back then but the American...

I think you underestimate how bored I get at work. :LOL: But, seriously, I would love to hear a clip of the issue you're having, or see a video of it, it possible. It it wasn't that slight high frequency overtone I was hearing in that video, then I'm not entirely sure what to suggest, and...

I don't have a ton of good pictures online, but I have what's gotta be a 30 year old Levy's leather strap on my main Strat. That should open to a picture where you can see the strap wear the best (edit - nope, slide 4), but it's worth flipping through; it's justworn to hell these days but...

Is there any way you can post a clip of what YOUR guitar is doing? "Buzz" is probably not the right word, but there are some harmonic overtones I'm hearing that sound kind of like the unwound strings barely touching something as they vibrate. It's really tough to say though, the effect is pretty...

Ok, WFH day here so I can finally come back and listen on a decent set of speakers. So, 6:25 of THIS video, this is what you're hearing your guitars do? That strummed chord is an example of the horrible 1k overtones you're referring to? Honestly, whatever I can hear in that clip is awfully...

Rather, it's multiple guitars, all doing the same thing? That's hardly conclusive, but kind of makes me think it's something outside of the guitars, rather than the guitars themselves. It's odd to have a whole bunch of them all have the same issue, you know?

That makes me think it's not the guitar somehow. Are you mostly playing in the same room? What happens if you take them outside?

I'd be curious why you chose to use parallel compression here. Parallel compression is most useful in situations where you have a signal with strong attacks you want to preserve, but want to bring up the sustain and "body" of the sound relative to it. By mixing a dry track with a track where...

I'll try to listen in the next couple days. "New York style compression" meaning parallel compression, right? blending an uncompressed and heavily compressed track? Nothing about your earlier recordings had me thinking compression was the problem on your guitars but you never know, I suppose...

Yeah, I got that from your post. I just thought it was also far to balance what was pretty objectively a "churn out something to keep the algorithm happy" on par with a Rolling Stone Top 100 (clickbait, basically), with an example of some of his much more sophisticated analysis, where I think...

I wonder how much of that is just needing to keep publishing something to keep the algorithm happy. Some of those are pretty light, but then again some of his "what makes this song great" videos are inspired - the one on "Smells Like Teen Spirit" where he spends a long time talking about where...

These are about as fine as they come - I've switched to using them over 0000 steel wool while buffing frets - but at the end of the day how you take the shine off a neck matters a lot less than you have SOME way to make a neck feel better for you - so either way should work for you! I suppose...

Yeah it's been absolutely gross lately. Down here in the just-outside-Boston area it's gorgeous today, though, low 70s and sunny, no humidity. Hope the necks feel better! Taking the edge of the gloss out with some sort of buffing material - very fine steer wool or a pad like this - really...

Isn't it also now a suspected carcinogen? :LOL: On a similar vein, I'd try Jack Daniels. EDIT - oh, hell, I suppose I should give a serious answer as well. I don't know if my main Strat had a gloss neck when new or a matte or semi matte, I suspect the latter but it's certainly polished up to...
