This is the link to his soundclick page, but there's only one song up? Jesse Screed Where are ya brother? t

So you have it subtitled The Inner Brain are we inside the Wookiee brain? I don't know if this is a good thing, or not... All in on that! Nicely done Wooks! t

Thanks Christian. I actually sold my 2210 (great amp) last year, and my '71 50 watt (not a "45", but laydown mains, hand wired turret build) the year before... t

sometimes Jesse does that...

Is @Christian Jonesthe Kuassa user; I think right? Nope Nembrini. Their Marshall is the 2210 emulation; right? JTM 45 is more my speed... Maybe he will chime in and let us know which amps are "essential". Or I could just use the search function, or go to his profile and look at past posts... Why would I do that, I'm lazy! He'll check in; roight? t ?

You been tearing it up here lately! t

That's a deal! Where are we at for 6 pack pricing these days, I'm dry! @BassDaddytwisted isn't my fav, but I get it... Kicks and Snares; I'd be all in! t

Well no fan here of the ES1, it failed! on my Brazilian 814; but I have a few direct to board recordings that have "plenty" of top end. ES2 has some eq control: right? Don't go overboard, but I'd want a little more "presence", if you get my meaning. I'd have to check the specs (hey that rhymes, oh boy ? on the Taylor 314-ce (x class), but should be plenty of "tone" there; its a Taylor! t

I'll take a copy out to the studio so I can be a bit more objective and get back to you. The Adams are a bit more "truthful" than the Bose cans or the Logitech speakers on the desktop... t

Well I'll stick with all the comments I made on the first mix. Great storytelling! And now that I've heard it a few times; thinking its an autobiography. Now I see the reason for "the time off". Welcome back! Mix wise, same advise; lather, rinse repeat! There's still some "niggles", but you're making progress. Let this one sit a bit, hone your skills, and come back to it. The "backbone" is there, its quite solid, that's for sure! t still thumb, thumbs and Thumbs

I echo the sentiments above regarding the "creative" side of the tune. As to the mix, a few thoughts. The kick: it seems to dominate the track on the Bose cans here, especially in the quiet sections. AC Gtr: the 58 on this, where's the mic pointed? If you re-cut this, point the mic at the 12th fret; and I'd put a high pass on it, pretty high maybe. Its kind of "lost" to my ears, needs some top end. Solo: I think you could shorten that up a bit. just remember, I'm a 3 minute single kinda guy, so take that with a grain of salt... t and thank you for your service!

Intro bgvox a little light (should be more like after the verses). I'd shorten up the second intro section a bit. Is it a 4 bar pattern, I'd have to listen again, but its not "building" like the first section, hence I'd shorten it... That "call and response" in the second verse; guitar up a bit (bridge pickup might bring it forward, like the solo) But don't walk on the vocal. WARNING! This is your tune, so your vision. These are quick notes I made as the tune rolled. More Doug, and more than anything, I appreciate its your voice! t

we players of the black standards have to stick together...

I liken EZD and Superior Drummer to Brian Wilson walking into United Western Recorders and handing the charts to The Wrecking Crew. Hal Blaine is sitting at the kit, and away you go. The grooves and performances contained in the ToonTracks libraries are a "work made for hire". I paid for them... Now they are yours! If you require any more assistance just reach out via the PM on the forum. Glad to help... tom I find most of grooves require a little "massaging", but all were laid down by drummers, not guitar players. need I say more?

Interesting thought, I honestly didn't notice it did not have a drum track. Stands on its own just fine; your voice, your production..... t

Claudio, you are creepin' me out man! Shades of Her Satanic Majesties Request. Good work, stay on it! t

What have I been smokin'? Could have sworn this was track8? Going with my initial response. Kick is "working" for me; YMMV..... Especially in the context of the guitar tone, which is not a "warm and fuzzy big box" Gibson; well mostly, I'm at 3:30ish now. Still not an L5.... NO! t I would print it, but, serve Your vision, remember, I'm an old (heavy emphasis on that old) rocker.....

? ✌️ t

Here's a quick example of what EZDrummer 2 can do with its search function. a_little_bit.cwp Not trying to proselytize here, and bear in mind here I have a rather "extensive" collection of ToonTracks' midi content. Its akin to getting a "deal" on an inkjet printer, only to find that the "ink" is where they make their money... Its general midi drum clips and should work with whatever drum VSTi you are using. Just replace the TTS-1 instance they are assigned to with your VSTi of choice. Let me know if you want some help. t

Jerry's work is amazing! @jsg Perhaps you could share some of your mastering technique. Everything is "balanced" and pretty loud; you master or hire it out? Keep sharing please... tom

Me too neither! Another avant-garde collage, keep 'em coming. you started something at that 3:01 mark; heavy like Grand Funk!* t *fz is smiling...

yes, can't track of who is/isn't a ToonTrack user!

Lather, rinse, repeat! The "Jack Bruce" bass is growing on me; I must admit. Now the bgvox is "supporting" the lead, much better. I forget, you're using EZD? If so "drop" a two or four bar kick and snare (don't "tap" it) in the search field, it'll kick back a bunch of "patterns". PM if you have issues with it, we'll get it sorted, you'll love it. Much better my brother, and the song deserves it! t

I'm liking the bass and drums at 1:21 that's for sure. Guitars are happening now; nice tone! Well done, a bit on the long side (for me). But, you held my attention right up to the end! ? t

Don't do that! Your style is your style. That's one of the tough questions when producing, are we after the Artist's style, or is the Artist after the producers style... t
