Hi there t , nice to hear that someone else has the similar issues, On a new song I´m writing I´m trying to get a clean strat sound (bridge and middle pick up tone) using the TH3 but to no avail Ive tried it with all the different speaker emulations but they sound so muddy no bite and clarity , i´ll post the next mix down this week so keep em`´ peeled , cheers

Great changing rythum guitars , slide hits the spot , its all over the place makes you wanting more cheers

Hi 53 ,The mic I use is the AT3525 it must be at least 10 -15 years old , I think on this recording I was concentrating on too many things at once and getting away from basic`s...... well just trying to be more clever than I am, Ive now done one more mixdown and I´ll post it later , I feel Ive opened up pandoras box and I´m just confusing the issue and using too many effects , and clouding my judgment , Ive taken all the comments above into account and hopefully ironed some of them out. thanks for your input guys cheers

Well I´m using Audio Technica condenssor mike ane I turned down the vocals towards the end as they were a bit too lively I do concure as far as the drums amd bass are concerned , I should `ve once again taken a bit more time on mixdown . cheers for listening

With all its boomyness its got its own character I imagine it as a backing track for a countryside scene or maybe a a boat sailing down a river at sunset .... cheers

Great track would have liked to hear some backing vocals .. to fill out a bit

Yes very Zapparish but in a great way `` but I`ve got the crystal ball´´ I like it a lot, really well done. great guitar tone

Groovy tune, so clear , I can hear so many influences in there , nice one

Hi chaps , I had a lot of response help and advice on the first outing of this song (cheers Gary) after much more work I did another (5) mixdowns and sort of deceided on this one , ..I´m still not sure ...the vocals are not too electric and the overall recording isnt soo edgy as the first , once again thanks to garybrun for sterling work and advice cheers all........ps I had to re-upload the track to soundcloud as the first didnt have the fade out ending for some reason...Oh happy days

Just great clear tones super playing

Well done that man , I could listen to that all day

Yes Gary a fine recording there , just so transparent , I use that term quite often becuse its not what mine sound like ......cheers ,

Yes thats good, open up a bottle of wine with this one, and not a cheap one either .

It took me on a great journey , lots of confidence and self belief , well done

Thanks for the offer Gary i´ll keep it in mind (I´m actually working on a song that is way out of my comfort zone slow, strings, and well not me ) I think what`s confusing the issue is that I used two strats L-R in the 2nd position pick ups (bridge and middle ) .....that could acount for the boxy bit maybe ??? I´m clutching at straws now arent I.... cheers .I´m off for some..... egg nog.....

Hi chaps thanks for all your input and positive critique of course I´m not put out by it, I actually welcome all tips good or bad , I still cant hear it being boxy as Wookie pointed out, I use Sennheiser headphones HD 280 pro and another cheap pair, I only added a tick compressor in the (as I´ve now learned the default Buss) mixdown but you know how it is after listening to same song over and over again it all a gets bit too much.... I´ll do another mix with less comp and post it , to make a comparisson once again thanks for all the comments ..cheers ..........Oh and i´m off to have my ears syringed

Great catchy chorus, loved all instuments

It just that great riff guitar that holds the song so loosly together if you get what I mean, you cant beat a riif based song ..nice one

Well done , I can only say that there nothing more difficult to sing than slow song , respect ..

Took me back in time , the vocals had a super effect on them well done...

I could almost imagine Robert Plant doing one of his ooohhhhhaaaaaaaaa screams in the background.... hit the spot for me ..wanted more, cheers

Confusion rules , reflects these crazy days , great song there´s a lot going onin there ......wow ! a speedy trip ........ you can let me down now ........cheers

Yep loved this great tune so well recorded , played to perfection ...oh jaaaaaa

Yeah , liked this very much mix, was more than fine , really my kind of thing loved the slow down breaks well produced cheers

Thanks Wookie are you referring to the side faders on the left hand side of the project tracks next to the master fader ? (if thats the default buss ) if so then well yes I used the compressor but i only reduced the wet/ dry mix , and only a a small amount , cheers
