Using an External Compressor with Focusrite Scarlett 4i4
Keith Wilby replied to Keith Wilby's topic in Cakewalk Sonar
Actually I've given up with it now. The 4i4 keeps crashing and I'm on a pretty decent spec PC. Returning it for a refund. -
Using an External Compressor with Focusrite Scarlett 4i4

That's a very good point. That said, it'd be nice to smooth out the dynamic range a little bit whilst recording my vocals to avoid "the needle going into the red". I don't think the 4i4 can take care of that ... or can it? -

Snap! 40 years in electronics, 30 years experience in computing and their crappy app has me totally bamboozled. -

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but here goes. I have just got a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 and want to loop its output via a compressor (also a Focusrite, a rather old one) and then send the compressed output to Sonar via the 4i4. I've pretty much got it to do that but I want to be able to send the output of Sonar to the headphone jack along with the 4i4's input (a microphone) so that I can sing to what I've already recorded. I've looked at many different tutorials on YouTube but I don't really understand the logic of the "Focusrite Control" app. If anyone reading this has any practical experience of doing this that they'd like to share then I'd be eternally grateful. Hope this makes sense 😳

I think the wah-wah lead guitar is a tad loud but other than that, sounds great 👍

I think I've de-Purpled this now but I've added a dash of Bad Co just for good measure. Thanks for your patience on this one 🤭 https://www.bandlab.com/revisions/57f6f472-925d-f011-8dc9-6045bd38076d?sharedKey=EbkLwYogKUWe4Gn55xEhrQ

Ah crap it does doesn't it? It even starts with a chattering hi-hat. In my defence, I'd never heard it before but I hate it when it happens. Thanks for the heads up.

High energy stuff. Great guitar work. Could have been the theme music for Top Gear 🙂

What an epic song that is. Very nice work indeed. If I may have one very minor comment, to me it seems like the vocals are sitting on top of the rest of the mix in the first verse. Everything evens out after that. Certainly one to be proud of. I struggle with lyrics, I think these will provide some inspiration 🙂

Looking for comments, suggestions, critiques etc. I'm not sure about the overall structure TBH. https://www.bandlab.com/post/f60acd77-b955-f011-8f7c-6045bd3174c3

To me it's part of the tone. If no-one else picks up on it then it's obviously my old ears 😁

I agree with @mark skinner about your voice, there's some brilliant singing on this. Very minor crits: some of the drum fills seems a little loud to me, and also the lead guitar has a bit of a harsh tone to my ears. But overall I like this very much, one to be proud of 👍

Great upbeat and fun song. Mix sounds great to me.

Fantastic professional job, well done 👍
