I didn't catch the earlier mixes, but this sounds all good to me - great track and excellent vocals Cool Nigel

Hi Bjorn I was shocked at the images - we have a great deal of this in South Africa, but we are a struggling third world nation Loved the music, fitted perfectly to the video Great job Nigel

Great vocals as always but I do agree with the comments re the instrumentation. With some work, could be a great track Nigel

Hi tom Great cover - loved the guitar playing and the vocals sounded excellent I've always liked this track and I've played it often - Cool Nigel

Hi Wookie - thanks for the comments - yes I could see that someone might think the guy is praying, but actually he is not - as you say that could be the reason I suppose - thanks for taking the time to have a watch and comment - really appreciated Nigel

Hi David Really enjoyed the track - I think I agree with some of the mix tips With regard to the reverb but apart from that excellent. Cool Nigel

What Bjorn said!!!! Nice job Nigel

Hi Bert This does sound much better, although I still think the snare is a little loud (Just a little bit) Otherwise all cool Nigel

I have a Gretsch Duo Jet 6128 and a Gretsch Rancher - I love my Duo Jet and it is one of my favourite Guitars - The Rancher I do use a fair bit but not so much for recording. It's great live. I have also played a friend of mines Gretsch's - he has a solid body and a Jazz Type Archtop - I can't remember the models, but I think they were the less expensive models - they both looked, played and sounded great - i remember thinking at the time just how well-made they were. I haven't played one of the new Electromatic models, but I'd be very surprised if it wasn't great - I do like Gretsch Guitars? You can see me playing my Duo Jet in this video, mainly towards the end Nigel

My Blood Runs Cold We went to upload our usual promotional stuff for our new video, My Blood Runs Cold; in video links, next video up links etc and YouTube has banned all promotional links etc for this specific video!! When I asked why, you get a very nonspecific answer of not suitable content, whatever that may mean. If you try and ask for specifics, they just won’t tell you. They really act like arrogant Dictators! Anyway I am just hoping the Cakewalk Forum peeps will not be offended?? I would love to hear what people think of this video – honestly I did not think it was that bad….I have been teaching a young intern here in Cape Town whilst I have been stuck here, how to use video editing software and some of the tricks I have picked up over the years – this was one of her videos and I feel so sad it got banned as I thought it was pretty good!! She has shown fantastic promise for such a young person and I have managed to get her a full time job – here in South Africa with our massive educational challenges and job challenges for our youth (Best estimate at the moment is around 65% youth unemployment) this has been a great thing. Anyway, here it is, the tenth track off our new album Regeneration. The track is called My Blood Runs Cold. Hope you enjoy it.

I liked this - well put together, very pleasant Nigel

Hi Bert Enjoyed this - the vocals sounded OK to me Enjoyed the listen Cool Nigel

Hi Jack think this could be a really good track - definitely i would do a stereo mix and I would watch Ozone when mastering - the auto settings especially on the limiter can crush everything - I don't have the latest version of Ozone (I think i have 7 - sorry not in the studio) but i always had to wind back the limiter - if i ever just let it to its own thing it was always way too limited!!! Actually after a while, even if i used the other Ozone modules, I never used the Ozone limiter - i much preferred something like Elephant or Xenon Nigel

what Jack and Wookie said!!! I enjoyed this Thanks for posting Nigel

Hi Jake I listened on Monitors and the panning didn't bother me too much - i did feel the bass could do with some work - was a little muddy/muffled sounding on my system Otherwise enjoyed the track Nigel

Hi Kurt, very nice piece indeed and loved your playing - excellent - clearly you're getting on very well with the new Yamaha!! Nigel

Hi Lynn Only heard the latest mix, sounds real good to me. Really enjoyed it, cool stuff Nigel

Hi Mark Great groove and very good track - liked it a lot Cool Nigel

Definitely chill music - very nice Nigel

Agree about a bit more from the drummer excitement wise, apart from that enjoyed it - good stuff Nigel

The only thing i would say is perhaps Wookies idea of a little lift in the 2/3k region might just improve the mix a little - otherwise all good Nigel

Jesse my friend, you're back!! Love this, as Jack says, Beefheart..........say no more Cool Nigel

Good track - I personally would want the vocals a little further up in the mix - also I am missing the Bass!! Cool Nigel

Certainly looks an interesting guitar - and surely ALL guitars are Beautiful Paulo??

I got an i9 recently - has made a difference, but I think the biggest difference was I went for 64gb ram - i use M2 system drive and performance has been great. But i definitely think the extra ram has made the most difference Hope you get yours all OK and its great!!! Nigel
