I listened on headphones, it's got a really nice vibe, a bit of country chill. Right away I noticed the severe hard panning and I don't know if it adds, for me it's kinda distracting. Horses for courses. You might start in right away =from the top with bass and drums, as for a few bars there in the beginning I had no idea what time it was. The rhythm guitar on the left could do with a bit of reverb perhaps? Good vocals for sure, and the bass is very nice in the mix. cheers, -Tom

I think it's a "jazz chord" when it has a second in it, up top somewhere, and you call it a ninth.

Thanks, good to know, but I was hoping to aim a little lower than the personal ear mold variety. Curious, how many drivers do those have?

For general use, and some mix checks, I've been using generic Sony earbuds with bass boost. Thinking about an upgrade to in ear monitors. More drivers. Seems like 59 bucks and up. Heard about the KZ ZSN. Don't want to buy crap. Wired is just fine, no bluetooth. Any audiophile recommendations for IEM's? Thanks!

Listeners? ?

I just hope it's overpriced and proprietary.

Whenever I start cooking a meal, I finish it, the same day. I don't have a kitchen full of a hundred started meals in varying stages of undoneness.

I can hear the calfskins vibrating . Those are some sweet percussions. And if you re-amp them . . . then they are repercussions. I liked the dreamy quality, very noice! cheers, -Tom

Look what you done and started! It's a cool vibe for sure and I appreciate your clean guitar chording and tone. The bass part was super supportive, yet maybe a bit "roomy" in the mix? I agree it's wanting a lead instrument of some kind, at some point. Did you knock down the fingersqueaks? Is so, you might let a little more back in? It would likely give you even more air in your already-pretty-cool guitar tone. good one! cheers, -Tom

These days, that kid would sue the school! I bet he'd have a lawyer . . . . . . on retina.

It's quirky and I wanted to hate it but . . . I just couldn't. It's simple, yet inventive. Mixwise you might look at how much the organ patch is masking the vocal. I couldn't hear all the lyrics - you might selectively drop volume on the organ patch when you have lyrics. Your organ is panned which also moves the listening target away from the vocal? I dunno. The organ might sit better in the mix if it has a fixed pan position and it wouldn't mask the vocal as much? Your reverb on the vocal is returning maybe more high end than it could, it makes the vocal a bit ringy. My .02 cents, probably all just fake news, so nevermind. cheers, -Tom

Hey I like your videos and thanks for watching them! But for this one in particular apologies because the title shames me if I watch it ? and I have more than enough cognitive dissonance already. I very much appreciate the reviews you do . . . Cheers, and good luck with it! -Tom

you really pulled this off, great job! Guitars are so clean and perfect. cheers, -Tom

Well done! And may you long harvest the well-deserved rewards of bitter regret. ?

I think this was used on that hit song "Rolling in the Deep"

fixed.

Forgive me, Father Bapu, it's been 9 days since I've bought anything musically related. My new year's resolution standing strong, 9 days in.

Congrats on following my time-tested method . . . the strategic placement of clutter to enhance wave dispersion. I looked at your pics and I think the wall behind your main desk is still blank and too reflective. Who wants to help him pull down that monitor bridge, hang up a curtain or better yet a carpet with a cool design, and then put everything back up again??? It's not as good as foam, but this rug is 100 bucks, is 5x8, and would dull the splash from the wall behind your monitors: https://rugs.com/multi-5x8-theia-area-rug-6281934?rt=bbsize Can't guarantee it wasn't woven in a sweatshop somewhere, but it would look hella cool up there. You could also put it up kind of bunched on the wall, with a few intentional undulations, for better dispersal characteristics.

Is this one the good one or the older one?

I love the concept but the more I want to say "ooooooh!" I end up saying "Aaaaaaaaaahhhh" no. It's just not flexible enough for what they are charging, in my useless opinion.

It's 2:30 somewhere.

Only if you need some chuckles . . .

Knopfler's guitar solos at the end of Dire Straits' "Telegraph Road" and "It Never Rains" come to mind . . .

Fyi it appears to be the digital version only.

I read this as "McCartney ill" and was checking in to see if the Walrus was doing poorly. Assuming we can really know who wrote what in that excellent team, I would disagree respectfully, I think you don't have enough Lennon-only songs to stack up against Blackbird, Hey Jude, Yesterday, Let it Be, the Long and Winding Road, Eleanor Rigby, And I Love Her, I Saw Her Standing There, Eight Days a Week, I'll Follow the Sun, Drive My Car, Fool on the Hill, Back in the USSR, When I'm 64, a ton of the Sgt Pepper and Abbey Road ones, Penny Lane, and even some Wings songs like Let 'em In and that James Bond one. Michelle is I think brilliant from the standpoint of arrangement and chord structure, and it might be 20th on the list. You could maybe say that Lennon rocked a little harder and was less mindful of pop or jazz than Paul was. Here's a nice list: https://www.google.com/amp/s/faroutmagazine.co.uk/paul-mccartney-beatles-every-song-hes-written-playlist/amp/ Now who wants to talk Federer, Nadal, or Djokovic?
