I use stretch markers often in my own songs, on instruments and drums and often singing too. Used sparingly it is really great, saves me lot's of fixing or re-recording something.

I'm not saying resonance is a bad thing, people love it, but, basically the more resonance the less sustain of the strings....Les Paul believed it too.

I can't tell without hearing the song...I see no problem with your lyrics. I mean, seriously....some huge hit songs have terrible lyrics....this one always bothered me and still does Sweet dreams are made of this Who am I to disagree? Just do better than that and trust yourself.

I'm an older guy, I do digital recordings though it took me a long time to get there. But AI is just something I'm against generally, I know I am wrong, but I just don't care. Now get off my lawn. And yes, I know someone is going to tell me I already use it somehow, and that's fine as long as I...

Truthful answer....I have no clue. I just shove 'em where ever they sound ok to me and then wing it from there. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

In fact, while on the subject. I don't do much midi, but when I do....I always do the right click and save as a wav file. I sometimes go back to things years later, and sometimes don't have access to the same vst instruments anymore. So I always have the finished track which can still be...

I have read many books by bands/musicians/engineers/producers. The most recent one I read was Tony Visconti....good book (I like any book about bands, music etc. even band and people I don't like). I found it very interesting when he spoke about 60's/early 70's recordings made in the USA vs...

I'm not technically good on recording, but I've been doing it for 55 years or so. I read tons of books about music, bands, producers etc. etc. What I do know for sure, even speaking about well known engineers, producers etc. (meanings have changed over the years), in the end they all hear sound...

It may be a short intro, it may only be a single cow bell, but this is one of the best and most recognized ever in the hard rock era:

Not a dumb question at all....I never thought of that in many years of playing and recording. :listeningmusic:

Reaper works for me. I tried it for awhile and ended up buying it. Also, very easy to find any help online. I simply type reaper +"my problem" and tons of help always comes right up. It's well worth the price.

Maybe try recording another vocal along with the original, and then try to blend it in as needed in certain spots....it might help. Or sound like total garbage, but it's free and worth a try. I actually did improve some old things I did on cassette this way, only problem was some of my old 70's...

Considering everything, I have two things to say: 1. Congrats on selling a song! That's a big deal. 2. Your name being on it at all is a big plus for you. OK I meant three. 3.If it becomes a well known HIT single, sue her for all she's worth regardless of the other facts.

Complain in writing. An actual letter on actual paper. It is amazing how this works. Once they see there is an actual copy and a paper trail..attitudes change quickly. Get reviewed by multiple people here: *******************************

Excellent advice!!!...and very true. (and I am a guitar player...but face it..we guitarists are a dime a dozen). Get reviewed by multiple people here: *******************************

I think you did a really excellent job. Really does the original justice. Not an easy song to duplicate imho. Nice job! :) Get reviewed by multiple people here: *******************************

I think it is a bad question...since Jimi is "better" but they "both kick ass". ******reviewmymuiscnow.com******

As a male guitar player....I would not touch it...anymore than I'd touch the real thing (not belonging to myself). ********* *********************

Nice beat, nice riff, nice guitar tone. I really like the "rapping" part...it fits in well with this song. The vocals seem a little strained at some points. The Zappa part really does sound like him. Overall very good. ********* *********************

Three months!!!???? It usually takes me 3 weeks or even three days sometimes. Thank the Lord for EBay. I usually end up making money on them too...which is why I buy used at the right price. *********** *********************
