  1. If you find yourself equidistant from all 13 basses, would you starve to death? Buridan's (b)*****
  2. Realizing I might have encouraged or goaded you a bit into acquiring a music man? I Must say excellent choice. The red pops. The maple neck will play like butter. The HH will have deep balls for days, assuming it has an active preamp ? I have the Bongo with the HH, and I put tapewound strings on it. Way feely! Noice bayzz.

    Gone again!

    Mods, please delete this post. It violates the terms of Larry's service and has content that is inappropriate to my well being.
  4. The hands I prioritize are the hands of time. Apparently not, though, as I have responded to this.

    Zaragosa

    That's a good one. It blends a lot of stuff in a nice way. Raum is a great reverb and I'd only offer the idea of just a bit more of it on the string parts, as the piano is nicely bathed in the verb. Or maybe I'm reacting to the way the string lines seem to swell, and then end abruptly sometimes. That filtered synth up top is a great add, reminds me of the furry pawed one. super pleasant and nice piano which obviously carries the piece. cheers, -Tom
  6. Pretty sure those aren't sale prices. ? 250 clams for trumpets?
  7. Try Mussolini. . . .served tonight in a white wine sauce with broccoli florets and peach cobbler.
  8. I hope it comes with a multiband or parametric equine.
  9. Uh, Brass. But Larry is still da man.

    Shifting Sand

    Nice tune! I had headphones on, so the widening trick around :15 caught me a bit unpleasantly - I'd say start the song with the acoustic guit nice and wide, it sounds super clear that way. YMMV! You could approach the mix from a few different angles, but you might look at the kick drum, I think it's doing a bit much and is sucking a lot of low-end energy by being that loud. My guess is, your mixing friend added ooomph by compressing the drums more than a bit. I really enjoyed the melody, and the drum performance, and the driving guitars. Once you get the low end sorted out, this will rawk! cheers, -Tom
  11. Nice one, and I agree the intro needs more length, and the bgv's could take one step forward. Great lead vocal!!! So that's 90% of the game all set! Maybe the drums a bit more prominent? A bit more snap on the snare? Kudos to the bass player/programmer, those lines are perfect for this song! cool tune! cheers, -Tom
  12. Yes, sorry to have missed it!!!
  13. Miami? Hollywood? Lake Tahoe? Who's picking these stock clips???
  14. I have the more entry level Gig, which I never got on with. Things in that pack don't have many articulation, and is Fable Sounds still supporting anything? But for this price, if you needed jazz ensemble components and didn't have much to begin with, id say it's a good start.
  15. So I dug deep into the marketing, and 2.0 adds notation capabilities, an additional articulation to a tenor sax, and "other improvements."
  16. Listened with pleasure as my family and drove across barren central Utah, on bluetooth to car radio, and the mix held up well! Vocals were plenty forward, and the tune fit the drive and the landscape well! Are you sure the title isn't "I don't know" ? I like the slightly ambiguous lyrics, and the vocals are great as well! Cheers, Tom
  17. Your voice is an impressive instrument, and I also liked the power chords in the second half of the tune, super crisp tone. I like how you've given your vocals a lot of different looks, different treatments, it kept it interesting. cheers, -Tom
  18. The new one looks like a nice easy load-in!
  19. Mesmerizing!!! More bass or thump in that groove might be a plus. David Byrne lives! I loved this . . . cheers, -Tom
  20. For me this had a nice 50's vibe. You might thicken your lead vocal with a very short delay or something? Maybe a bit more variety in the drum programming, the hi hats got a little samey - adding some nice crash cymbals occasionally on the ones, that sort of thing. Oh yeah I bet you will. nice one! cheers, -Tom
  21. Mostly, your melody hits two notes. Those two notes are perfectly spaced with that groove, the lyrics convey a lot, everything breathes, and your vocal tone is killer. Kudos for not being overly complex! This song is catchy simple and easy. I'd agree a few mix tweaks to the drums but really, not a deal breaker. The intro had like 16 bars of guitar lead, maybe cut to the chase a bit quicker? I don't know where Westerly is, but there are cool grooves to be had there. cheers, -Tom
  22. Vangelis or if you were playing Bach, the formerly Walter Carlos. Those tones are a time capsule from childhood. Only yours sound cleaner. Nice! cheers, -Tom
  23. Welcome to the forum! My guess is your tunes will find a good home here. I really appreciate the unconventional approach to this one, and that sustained "friend" got a little creepy and sad, which of course fits your song. nice one, keep 'em coming! cheers, -Tom
