  1. I thought it was very good and the vocal is quite compelling. I could see it over the closing credits to a Ridley Scott movie. And as much as I like the music I was equally hooked by the title!
  2. There are fathers and there are great fathers. It sounds like you had a great one. God bless you and your family.
  3. I just read a very article saying that songs are getting shorter and now average well under 3:00. The reason they offered for this is that streaming sites (Spotify in particular) pay by the NUMBER of songs an artist has played and not the LENGTH of time an artist is played. The logic that follows is that shorter songs mean more plays means more income. I don't know if he's right, but it was an interesting idea.
  4. For being made out of a BOX this thing sounds surprisingly good.
  5. Isn't it the truth! Everything is fine, then just as Waves puts every plugin they have into one gigantic bundle for $49 the hot water heater bursts, which soaks your ceiling (and WHY do they put 40 gallons of water in the attic anyway???) and ruins your dining room table. Not to mention the dinging room floor. Then before the plumber can arrive the dryer and washer BOTH poop out. And, oh yeah, don't forget you've been putting that new roof off for two years . . . . And in the meantime Izotope put all it's bundles on sale for 90% off.
  6. Great playing + Great arrangement + Great melody = Great song. it's a very interesting piece. I like the way it evolves.
  7. Years ago a study showed that 90% of people thought of their pets as family members. That's because they are, and we love them intensely. When my dog "Sally" died I cried for two days. I hope you don't hurt long. In time you'll decide what to do with the avatar.
  8. Toneboosters makes some good, reasonably priced stuff.
  9. I was thinking the same thing. Somebody just starting in music can get going for a song these days.

  11. That's the truth. I love jamstix, but you perfectly named it's weakness. I keep waiting for the "Ringo" drummer to appear.
  12. I've got Revalver 4 and love it, but I could never get decent results out of ACT. I have a feeling, though, that's my fault and not the software's.
  13. HS: Have you used CD Baby in the past? If so, what do you think of them?
  14. It looks fascinating. Can my Les Paul now sound like a Ric? My Strat like a Casino? It's impossible to imagine where technology will be in 20 years.
  15. If you still need a modeling mic. $199 for mic/$50 for the plugin. https://www.jrrshop.com/nos12 NOS Audio NOS12 Modeling Tube Microphone How do you emulate a classic microphone? You start with a classic microphone. The NOS12 starts off as a re-creation of one of the most sought after large diaphragm tube microphones of all time: the venerable C12. Its sound is bright and clear while at the same time full-bodied and smooth, characteristics that make it especially desirable for recording vocals or any instruments you want to sound larger than life. These characteristics also make it an excellent base for emulating other classic tube microphones, such as the C12, Ela M 251, U47, U67, and C800G.

  17. May the new light here burn bright.
  18. I used SONAR beginning in 1997 when it was known as "Home Studio". After the iceberg I first tried Magix Samplitude. I couldn't bond with it. I felt like I was doing a LOT of clicking and everything seems to tiny. On the upside, it's fairly easy to get up and running with the basics quickly. Then came Reaper. I loved the customization of it. I hated the customization of it. I thought the ability to change the GUI so easily was a huge plus, and some of them are simply gorgeous. I mean "work of art" gorgeous. In particular I loved the Abbey Road REDD desk. Another thing I liked about it was "a track is a track". There aren't midi tracks or audio tracks or train tracks. Just tracks. Add one and go. Downside: At times I felt like I was working with Windoze 98. It can have the tendency to look like it was designed by the Polit Bureau during the Cold War. Lastly, I hit on PS Studio 1/4 which is where I'm staying. Easy-peasy to use. Drag it, drop it, record it. I made my first recording with in about 15 minutes. I can also run a jillion plugins and record at 98 samples without a hiccup. Downside: it cost $400. And it can have a tendency to look like a box of gummy bears when you start using colors. I wish PS would take a tip from the Reaper people about GIUs. Also, it just doesn't seem as deep as SONAR did. In the end I stayed with PS just because of the plugins/low latency efficiency but, I still miss SONAR.
  19. I'm with you. I think Waves makes some extraordinary plugins, but the GTR3 stuff just isn't up to their usual standards. Others, however, seem to love it, so power to them.
