     PJH , another Top Notch production and performance!  You sure surround yourself with some talented mates. I believe my favorite part was the blue Tele. I don't think I've ever heard such a silky tone come out of one .  I really liked the way you adjusted your playing style in the Tele section using the longer slides  bringing that tone out. The acoustic was icing on the cake.                       Awesome job ..   mark

    Thanks so much for taking the time to listen/watch and for the kind comments!

    Cheers!

  2. I've just finished and uploaded the video of the penultimate song and video from my upcoming album. This track has been in the works for the past three to four months. In that time I've survived getting the dreaded Covid amongst other things.

    The track is in two parts and I used alternate acoustic guitar tunings as an experiment. My good friend Mark Beling (also a guitarist) caught Covid at the same time as I did and  I decided that when we get through the recovery I'd invite him to contribute to the song.

    I also had my good friends, drummer (Larry Rose) and Hammond/piano player (Dave Sharp) play on the track.

    I used a some stock video and video that I filmed to accompany the audio which I think worked out quite nicely.

    The song (both parts) runs for about ten minutes, so for those who love three and a half minute songs wait until you have some time to listen.

    The audio was tracked and mixed in Cakewalk with the final mastering done in Adobe Audition. The video was produced in Adobe After Effects and Magix Vegas.

    I hope that you enjoy this track as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

    Superb!  It just goes to show that one doesn't need many instruments and vocal tracks to create an immense sound, just good performances.

    Thanks Lynn, your comments are much appreciated.

    Thank you so much Tom! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

  4. I was approached by a young girl to produce and record her debut album. I had not heard of her but ahen I heard the demo of one of her songs I was intrigued. Very, very talented with a great quality to her voice.

    The project was a huge amount of fun and the result was really good.

    This is one of the songs from the album. This was one of the first albums I recorded after Cakewalk was acquired by Bandlab.

    Thanks, I think the dropout immediately following a bounce to clips, is likely a spurious dropout message caused by an expected scenario with the engine transitioning from offline to online. I’ll look into it for next release. You can ignore that message since its harmless.

    Thanks Noel! Other than that error its been pretty much rock solid.

    I look forward to seeing what you're able to do to fix the issue.

  6. This has been a problem for quite a while now but it's getting really irritating so I thought I'd find out if anyone else is getting this.

    I get an audio dropout with the usual "audio engine has stopped" error message as soon a I bounce to clips on an audio track. Cakewalk does bounce correctly but the program freezes. If I hit the play button, nothing happens. I then have to save my work, close Cakewalk and reopen. I can then carry on.

    My audio interface is a MOTU 16A.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Great blues instrumental. good  guitar sounds. Well played and recorded tracks

    Thanks for your comments, Makke!

    Glad you enjoyed it!

  9. Really nice song Lynn! I would tame the frequencies on that Hi Hat though. Especially the open Hi Hat seems to be crowding out the vocal and the other instruments. IMO it's very harsh and very upfront in the mix.

    I reckon if you took it down and eqd the harshness out of it, the vocal would jump out a bit.

    Just my opinion of course...

  10. Actually 2 profiles. The first profile (the bluesy parts) was my Marshall JCM2000 set clean but driven by an MI Audio Super Blues Pro pedal. The second profile was the same amp set clean but driven by the MI Audio Super Crunchbox. This was used for the (heavier) part in the middle of the track. Both profiles were captured with pedals included in the chain.

    Made me think of Gary Moore, don't know why.

    As others have already said, Top Shelf performances by all, and great production audio and video.

    Thanks so much for sharing!

    how many "patches" on the Kemper, that clean bit at ~3:00 just the vol down on the Paul?

    Thanks, Tom! 

    I've got quite a few profiles on my Kemper but the ones that I use the most are the profiles that I made of my own rig. There was a lot of volume adjustment during the track in order to get the various gain stages.

    The Kemper really excels when rolling off the guitar volume. Makes things a lot of fun when playing blues.

    Jealous here as well.   You definitely have your own voice and tone.  Kudos for the professional polish on this.

    Thanks for the kind comments David!
