Thanks Jeff- Merry Christmas

I started to post this once a year. Merry Christmas Everyone. Gary

Great post @Lord Tim Took some time to write that.

Nice mix ?

Your mixing skills are quite impressive. well done.. If you are into experimentation a little I would like to try and run the stereo mix through my analogue chain. You can contact me on pm if interested.

Great sound on my Focal Trios Sorry to hear about your mums accident.

Thank you for adding it back. Appreciate the work that has gone into making these.

Changed abit now. Asked for the tracks... I can't do an arrangement as the tempo keeps changing and doesn't match all the way through. When we record at my place it will be different. I think I will add to Bandlab and fork it so people can have a go. Thoughts.. All comments are appreciated and taken into account.

please reinstate. If you don't have space I can host on my server for you.

I think you will find this will fix your problem...

Hi Jack. Your mixes have come a long way since you joined the forum. I hear some of the volume keeps changing in various sections. compression??

I think you have done very well (Im listening to the first song) I hear sibilance on the vocal... if you dont have the plugin "smooth" this would allow you to fix the problem. Soothe 2 There is a trial period.

Have you done crossfades on all cuts?

This song was written and performed by Thomas Wold a member of the country band I engineer for... Hobo Train. He wrote this for a close friend who has cancer. Its just basically recorded (demo) and we are going to re do it in my studio. I have only mastered the stereo track I was given. I think it's beautiful.

That correct. I am sending the SUM Output to analogue 7 + 8. I do not see any signal in the UAD Control Panel for imputs 7 + 8. Need to do a little more research. I hope the sum output of the box is not damaged. Will also check to see if I can get signal into Apollo 7+8 via another feed.

Correction.. I think maybe the output for the dbox sum is not working. Will need some electronic checks for that.

OK... my mistake was not creating an AUX track.. I created a track instead!!! ? Now I have worked that out and can record my master bus. Just have to work out now how to get the spidif working on an input. It works on an output though as its sending the signal to my D Box via mirror to the DAW input on the D Box. I need the spdif to record the sum. mmm.

All my inputs and outputs are ticked and showing. Without using summing how would you record your master bus to a track in cakewalk in Realtime? I am missing something... (Forget using a d-box) what would be the process for that?

@Sheens Thanks for the reply. I believe there is something wrong as I have tried all options. tried adding tracks and busses etc. Im going to reset the apollo as I know I have everything working with the D Bus.. the spdif is on mirror... but is greyes out in the Apollo io matrix. I run an x8p and an apollo twin. Going to try and switch of the apollo twin and see if its that...

The problem is with the spdif. I can monitor the summing and the DAW and Analogue.. but can not record the feeds back into cakewalk. Can anyone explain how to record your master back into cakewalk on a track?

I can recommend Slate VSX. I have an excellent pair of monitors (Focal Trio 6 be) and also use the Slate system to check for translation. also the mastering room in VSX is excelent.

@DeeringAmps Thanks for taking the time to look... appreciated. The .pdf explains the setup. I have everything working fine except the print track. I have never recorded a print track even without the d-box before. The summing works fine. The analogue and daw part works fine. Its just recording the sum I cant work out. I must have some routing wrong somewhere. The sums should be mirrored to the spidif.. so I thought I should make the input on aux track as spidif.. not managed to sort this bit out yet. hooking-up-d-box-with-ua-apollo.pdf

I have recently acquired a Dangerous D-Box Summing Mixer. What I want to do is record the "Print Track" to a new Stereo Track in a project. So... I am summing my project through the 8 analogue channels of the mixer.. how do I record this? Its got me beat (my head must be in the wrong place). I am using an Apollo X8p and I am mirroring (digital mirror on) but I can't find out how to record that mirror. hope I make sense. Thanks in advance. Gary

Thanks @mark skinner I've added one more as I personally thought the vocals were a little unclear and muddy. Did dome automation on the instruments and changed out some of the reverbs and delays. Thanks for taking the time to listen. P.s. Maybe Im a little deaf/blind now and need to leave it for a little while! Maybe the guitar solo needs to come up more.

Hi @John Maar thanks for taking the time tn. I have tried to implement your feedback. "Reisen" means the same in Norwegian. ? I will ask why they called themselves Hobo Train.
