Can definitely here your influences shining on these! t

Well done! No soundtrack for the fledglings in the nest? Next project? t

I don’t think we have to worry about that! ? t -
Tracks get buried -- how to pull them out?
DeeringAmps replied to Michael McBroom's topic in Cakewalk by BandLab
4 instances of TTS-1 implies you have 16 stereo pairs available. Can I assume each of the 15 tracks has been assigned its own stereo pair? How are these tracks then routed? (I work with a combo of audio and midi tracks as a matter of course; separation either way shouldn't be an issue) I would suggest you break up your instrumentation to several busses (for me its VOCALS GUITARS DRUMS KEYS/STRINGS) that then are routed to the MASTER. (I also use a SUB-MIX buss {all instruments} so I can quickly raise or lower the Vocals) When you solo the Drums where is the track peaking? If the TTS drums are sent to the DRUMS buss pull it down so you have some headroom on the MASTER (-18 is a good place to start). Now slowly bring up the rest of your tracks. Level and Pan each and get them "sitting" in the mix: hopefully you'll start to get everything working together. I find controlling "levels" in the mix easier at the buss level than everything going straight to the MASTER; YMMV... Sounds like you have some "masking" going on, and several instruments are competing for the same frequency space. That's a bit more complex subject, lets get the basic mix working, then move on to fine tuning it. HTH, tom -
It can't be said loud enough, it can't be said often enough: Get out there and cause Good Trouble! I'm sure John is smiling down on you Freddy. So well done on all levels! t yes indeed, we have lost another great one...

First off; well done! I've used Cake for covers since 3.0 Pro; but most are basic backing tracks so a buddy and I could play out. This is pretty much radio friendly I must say. (and now the BUT, take it for what its worth; you know free medical and legal advice are worth exactly what you pay for it!) This comes from my toughest critic; the vocal is way too bright. I gotta say I agree with her. Now this is just me, Nectar is useless; it always results in a grating vocal tone that, (again I quoting my toughest critic here) "is like an ice pick in my ear". Overall she loves the tune (generally this is a pretty high bar, so take that anyway ya like...) Free advice, well again; ya know... t

The Heretic and Devils Child - Covid-19 Virtual Collaborations
DeeringAmps replied to pazman6's topic in Songs
Can't disagree with that. Metal is not my first choice, I'm bit on the "old" side. But a ?'s and well done from me... t -
Well done, great job of quoting most of the hits; bravo! Even worked in one of my favs Strange Kind of Woman ? Did I miss Hush? t
-
I'm always envious of great "clean" tone, if I could nail Wilsey's Wicked Game tone; I'd never look back! This is from a guy that loves an amp that drives like a fine Italian sports car... ? t I know I say this all too often, but it only takes a minute to drop a like for a brother over at YouTube; just sayin'... (just shaming?) ?
-
Yup, now its up to you to move it along. I'll save a "like" when its no longer a WIP... t

Bridge To Somewhere (Original Song by EmeraldSoul)
DeeringAmps replied to markno999's topic in Songs
I remember enjoying this the first time round. Wow, nice job! very convincing... t ? -
If autobiographical, I feel for ya mate. Oh, I did enjoy... t
-
Autobiographical? Or just a tune? Enjoyed it, what more can I say? t
-
Still lovin' it! Without the original to compare it to, its hard to say if this is "way" better; I liked it then, I like it now... You might mention in the title and OP that this is an updated mix. t
-
Say What? As I have no knowledge of EDM/Club Mix, the kick works here, but I don't count. Throw the Concrete Limiter on the kick and give those that need it a headache (at least make their eyes bug out)! I kidd, I kidd.... t oh btw big ?'s ; very cool, verry kool!
-
I'm very comfortable echoing that; nice one Bat. Not sure I'd agree with that... t
-
I don't know if what I'm hearing is either, but there is a "clicking" sound, maybe one of the 808 percussion sounds? I don't find it very "pleasing", but certainly not a "deal breaker"; lovely tune, really enjoyed it! t
-
Much better Barry, and I caught the SOTW quote at the the 4 minute mark; well done there! Also the MC5 "kick out the jams"; that brought back some memories... Since you dropped "both shoes" on this one, I'll go all Thumbs and Big Toes! t
-
I'll concur with all the above. Good one Allan. t
-
That one I missed
-
Structured randomness; I think he said? Much enjoyed here Wookiee! t
-
Another fine tune Barry. On the cans the vocal sits just fine. If I were mixing it I'd want just a bit more interaction between the kick and bass. What I'm trying to say is I think the bass is a bit lite and the kick a bit hot; maybe. I'd have to hear it on the speakers, if I had to mix exclusively on the cans; I'd never get it "right". (of course that assumes I ever get it right ?) t maybe I'd change the intro, but as Pablo said "great artists steal"...

I say a big ?on the fiddle and Vocalise. Found the guitar pretty convincing. One little crit, I'm thinking a fiddle player would hold some of notes a bit longer on the end of a phrase. Nice composition. t
-
Nice! Lovin' the doubled Horn and Guitar lines. This the same sexy Sax man I've repeatedly said we need to keep away from my wife? ? t
