I wanna hear this but it says the file has been removed :(

there

not gonna post anything until my album

im actually making good mixes now

^lololol at actually making good mixes now. If your previous were crap I really wanna see what you've come up with

And downloaded - thanks limmy ^_^

lim yoiu should get monitors if you have them they help x a million

and when mixing you can always do something but its a major motherfucker to figure out what could take hours if youi have no clue what it is or have never done any of it before

is this primus inspired

if so read this and mail me a copy of illuminatus

[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Yage_Letters[/url]

i'm not done with my own copy of illuminatus yet, lol

I can assure you Primus never sampled dialogue from [I]Eastbound And Down[/I] and time stretched it until they sound like they are slurring

will read more Burroughs

think ive posted this before but w/e its the best ambient thing ive done imo

been messing around testing the dynamic range of stuff i make, its fun

yeah i've found mixing vocals and samples in particular has really benefited from boosting dynamic range. I could never get them to stand out from the mix before

also when I record, I seem to get the best result from having all the bass, mids and treble on my pre-amp boosted to max I can isolate frequencies as need be

garbage in, garbage out I guess

[quote]also when I record, I seem to get the best result from having all the bass, mids and treble on my pre-amp boosted to max [/quote]lol that isnt a good idea, turning your pre amp to max will usually be too high and make it distort unless your mics are broken or something what kind of preamp do you have

you can always get a better sound, but your tools can over-color you ears very very quickly

like if you're sweeping a parameter that you're not used to listening for

for example if you blindly choose and between A and B like 9/10 times then you truly can tell a small difference in character, for example, that was done in a psychological study, i saw that in a recording engineer conference video i posted a while back

it's just my guitar amp. there's no distortion, it doesn't seem to clip or degrade the quality of sound at all otherwise.

I want it to sound "fuller", i've tried holding back on the frequencies to try and get a flat, even sound but it just never seemed to work in my favour. If I boost it this way, I can seem to get the exact same result by using the center channel extractor tool in adobe audition to isolate unwanted sound frequencies and fiddling with compression and EQ, the difference is i've got that extra band of frequency there to play with. Still, I try and narrow the frequencies to avoid "over-coloring" it as you put it.

on the plus side recording a song or two every day i'm learning the limitations of this cheap equipment, by the time I progress to better stuff i'll have something of an idea how to take advantage of it. then I can start spending more time on polishing weaknesses in songwriting and musical ability rather then using everything as an excuse to get better at sound engineering

will read more Burroughs[/QUOTE]
read Junky, Queer and Yage Letters and then re read Naked Lunch

once you realize every scene in naked lunch is an outtake from his first three books you all of a sudden realize that his cut up books are only weird because he withdrawing off of heroin when he wrote them

i will mail you my entire Burroughs collection if you send me a copy of For Whom THe Bell Tolls, i never understand it

Isn't this the same album cover as [I]Submerged[/I]? For the most part at least.

Either way I am listening currently.

heres ur next step get a audio / digital converter the come with pretty good preamps for mics for budgets, you can also free up cpu power as well by having a dedicated soundcard

another thing that helped me was watching all my music in foobar with a spectral display, helps my identify where the tiny good sounding ghostly edges are located in pitch

and how the spectrum of frequencies is divided up among parts and space

heres a mix i did today, im using space a looooot

i recorded $ome riff$ an for $ome rea$on the volume alway$ $tart$ out at the rite volume but then 10 $econd$ in it decrea$e$ to really low and i don't change my amp volume at all

i'm u$in the computer mic and it happen$ in every program

any of you know why thi$ happen$ or how to fix it?

thank$ in advance

probably some normalisation option in your soundcard features... unless you have got the amp directly plugged in the jack then perhaps it is filtering the signal to prevent damage to your computer

thanks Noon. downloading that track, curious cause you said it was all so under wraps :p fuck dial up though :(

check automation of the volume envelope

you might have accidentally faded it at one point on record

im not sure sure how reason works but that could def be it

edit oh wait every program.. not sure... can you sttill hear it or does it go all the way down

I thought the parts where all sound "dipped" down was a bit of an annoyance


it didn't happen a lot, though
