Great song, Daryl! You should be writing for SNL.

Try setting your marker by hitting the letter "m" during playback.

I may be a little confused, but do you use it as a regional fx in ARA? I don't understand your use of the utilities menu, as it's intended as a regional fx. Do you render small clips after processing them? Do you have unrendered clips in your project?

Thanks Steve, much appreciated! As for the stone, I'll see what I can do. Paulo, if you only knew... Happy to hear from you! Thanks

You might try rescanning and making sure that TH3 is in its correct place in your plug-in path. Good luck.

It's been a while, but I think you merely need to go to the Overloud site and re-authorize TH3.

Check to see if the interleave button on each track is stereo or mono. If all tracks are in stereo, that would explain your problems to me. Just set them to mono.

I'd heard something through the grapevine, but I'm relieved to hear it from you and that you're recovering well. I've missed time here, too, but because of family and personal stuff. I look forward to hearing from you when you are fully recovered!

You can use a noise gate to silence the clicks in the silent parts, but it may be time to look for closed ear headphones. Perhaps make it part of your drum or percussion track?

What he said.

This is easily done in PRV by changing duration of the note. Isn't that what you are looking for?

Actually, "bounce to clip" works perfectly fine for rendering Melodyne or other ARA clips. I've been doing it this way for years, and I've use ctrl + B for the key binding.

Thank you for your keen observations! Yes, that is an Ebow that I use with my PRS Tremonti, which I use in a number of songs. The reference to SD is very kind, indeed. Happy holidays to you and all.

You shouldn't have to freeze or make audio tracks at all. Leave them as MIDI tracks and drag and drop them in your EZ Drummer track as MIDI files. That way you can edit them in the Piano Roll View (PRV) as desired. Check for videos on this on the Toontrack site.

I can make them louder. Thanks for the input! It's quite a compliment to be mentioned with PG, and if you ever see him live, you'll get the same chuckle that I do Nigel, thanks a ton! That gives me encouragement. I am happy to entertain! Thank you so much.

Mark, you nailed this one. It sounds like you're right here in the room with me. This is a pleasure to listen to, and you named it just right

Over time, I've noticed that you're constantly trying new techniques in recording all the time. This has led me to try new techniques myself, and I love the freedom that it gives me. That's the effect that you have on people!

This is one of the most original and unique songs that I've heard in quite a while. The sparseness of your arrangement gives the listener room to fill in the spaces. When you finish this, I'd like to hear it again.

kakku, this is a stellar backing track for a song that begs for a vocal! This is a terrific mix, one of your best, and with a vocal, the drums might fit right in. You are one of the most prolific songwriters around, and I hope you keep it up. It's paying off.

I am on Bandlab, and I'll definitely look you up! Thanks

First of all, I share your concerns about the state of the world. Second, I love the way you shake your tree and come up with something fresh, yet, familiar. Do you listen to Belew? He should listen to you.

Well Nigel, this was a pleasant surprise, getting an instrumental from you. Very good songwriting is a strength of yours, and this shows off your skills very well. The video is very high quality, too, and I am curious if you filmed it yourself or used stock footage. Either way, it's very well done, regardless of the subject matter. I'll be visiting your sight more often. p.s.- as noted above, the drum part is very good for the song, though, this is just me, I thought it stood above the rest of the mix a little much. My only observation.

Very nice, Kenny! Your superb tone and phrasing are always good to hear. I'm not very familiar with BIAB, but I'm impressed with the pedal steel in this tune. You've given me some ideas to try in the future, so thanks for the inspiration, my friend. May you stay prolific!

Kakku, as always, I welcome your input and kind words! Jimmy, welcome to the forum and thanks for the compliment! Paul, it's good to hear from you, and thanks for your time and comments! I love your new song and steady growth. Tom, I'm very happy you like this! As for the sibilance, I'm using KRK Rokit 8's which may not be as responsive as your monitors, plus I have a slight case of tinnitus which may prevent me from hearing the essiness. This is why I come to this forum; to borrow your ears. I'll listen carefully for this on the next pass.

Terrific song! I think Freddy nailed it, it does remind me of McCartney and Abbey Road, yet it is unique at the same time. The only thing I noticed is that it's a little light on lows and mids on my speakers (KRK Rokit 8's), but every element in the mix does stand out quite well, so it may be a matter of taste. Anyway, I love it and I'll be back to listen again.
