Loved it ! Yes , that sounded like it was a "blast" to play . You kept the energy up and had some really cool changes. Nice chicken pickin .. Fantastic Job ! ms

Thanks , @David Baay I'll give that a try. I've actually never worked with channel tools . My mixes are normally so busy I don't do stereo guitars. I get the results I want using seperate L/R mono tracks. I keep planning on doing a simple single guitar/vocal song but , it always eludes me not knowing how to properly treat the guitar. I used to do a lot of solo gigs. I hope it didn't sound as bad as it does now when I attempt one .. ms

tdehan , If you want the mono track to actually "sound" like a stereo track , check out "converting any mono track to stereo" in the tutorials section. I rececntly tried it with Fantastic results. ms

@T Boog, @equality , @Bajan Blue , @Paul Bush Thanks guys for the listen and further comments. I Really appreciate it. @Wookiee , Thanks .. It sure is nice to have you back ! The link now reflects a new master by Gary Brun. To me it's Very solid and glued together nicely. Thanks Gary .. Moving on .. I just finished building a lap steel. All I have to do now is learn how to play it.. Thank You All .. ms

Hey , SubVibe I Really like this one. I Love the thickness of the lead vox and the range she's singing in. Take a look at 041 , 058 , and 2:49. Sounds like the very beginning of her words are cut off. At 058 it's more feeling it rather than hearing it but , the other two are pretty glitchy. Enjoyed it .. ms

That was pretty cool Michael. I've been wondering how you could use an AI program like this to generate just a female harmony vocal ?

@treesha , @KSband , @equality , @T Boog Thank You for the listens and comments and suggestions. The link now reflects a remix trying to address the issues in your comments. I've tried to settle the guitars down some with automation and a few cuts and fades. I also side chained them to the piano getting them out of the way a little more. I slightly boosted the piano and cleaned some notes up. Bass guitar was boosted and crash cymbol replaced. I also backed all the reverbs off. I still feel as if it's missing "something" and is a little too contemporary . I'll get away from it for a few days and see what hits me afterwards. Let me know what I missed . Thanks .. mark

Hello , here's an instrumental (for now) I'm finishing up. The guitar parts have been written for a Long time but I've never gotten around to finishing the song. I pecked around on a piano synth to get some of the melody going and may address vocals later if I think it's worth the effort. Any suggestions would be helpful at this point. Thanks for the listen .. mark -remix 1- https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14961392

Bruce , Fantastic ! I Love the rhythm of the intro guitar and also the one in the break. Perfect timing and just the right amount of FX. It sounds like it would be pretty easy to replicate but .. I sure have'nt been able to lock it in that tight. Well written and and the "perfect" time to release it. There's sure been a lot of Smoke and Lies lately from my side of the border. Enjoyed it .. ms

If you do a remix at some point , I think I would treat the guitar differently. Maybe just a reverb ? I built an adaptor to hook the bagpipes to an air tank. I had trouble with the pressure release valve and almost exploded them. Now they are just wall art with the other things I can't play. ms

Thanks everybody for the listens and Great comments and suggestions. It took a while to get it to the point where I'm ready to surrender. Special thanks to @garybrun for another Great mastering job. Later .. mark

Enjoyed that. Scott sure Nailed the vocals. I think I would spread the instruments out a little and make a little more room for the vocals. Still .. Very good as it is. I bought a set of bagpipes once just to cover this song. Never did learn how to play them.. Enjoyed it . mark

Nice playing. I sure wish I was on a warm beach listening to this. Enjoyed it .. mark

I downloaded Prefix and tried this yesterday. Very Good results after some tweeking. I found a sweet spot sliding 8ms on the copied guitar track. I did some A/B tests against my best widening plugins , this was a winner. Thanx . ms

Absolutely Killer guitar work. ! This takes me back to when all I listened to was Steely Dan and Jazz Fusion bands. Loved it .. ms
