Thanks Lynn, I did enjoy using the phrase "creature comforts" in different contexts and I left it just a little bit vague overall so as to try and get the listener to paint a mental picture of their own rather than spell out a specification, if that makes sense.
-
Very nice indeed Mark. Well recorded and mixed. FWIW I can hear no sibilance issues.
-
"Revisited" because I'm fairly sure I've posted about this track before but probably a couple of years ago. Comments appreciated. https://www.bandlab.com/post/ae368c96-07a2-ed11-994c-000d3a3f87df

Hi Jesse, do you mean the solo starting at 2:02? That's from my 1990s vintage Yamaha SQ16 keyboard, "Hawaiian guitar".

I can hear your pain in this, I'm so very sorry for your loss.

Nothing to do with a garden but this is a song of mine, newly recorded, but from about 25 years ago. Partly based on what I was experiencing at the time and partly on a TV drama in the same period. Very stripped back arrangement but I think it's all it needs. My first dalliance with Melodyne's sibilance control. I don't use profanities lightly in a song, but this contains one because I think it is appropriately descriptive. Fully understand if an admin chooses to take it down as a consequence but we're all grown-ups here so I hope it's not a problem. Comments invited as always. https://www.bandlab.com/post/d38fa443-229e-ed11-994c-000d3a3f87df

Hearing an ace production like this makes me realise how ill-qualified I am to comment on it. Very nice job indeed, well done ?
-
I concur ... and it made me chuckle ?
-
I too can hear the bass and the kick ... but only just. Great rock song and cool guitar sound though ?
-
I didn't even know that Melodyne did this, I have much to learn. Thank you.
-
Thanks Tim. This made me smile ?

I usually have buses for my lead vocals and backing vocals. Where best to put a de-essing plug-in, on each individual vocal track or is it possible to de-ess an entire bus to achieve the same effect? Many thanks.

It's a "quiet" kit at the start and I couldn't find a way of including two instances of EZD without crashing CbB so I opted for AD for the "loud" kit. Of course, this is potentially now all up in the air as I consider all of these useful comments so far ?
-
I'm using the EZ Drummer 3 "tight/small" room kit for the first bit (going for the Paul Simon "Fifty Ways" sound) and Addictive Drums 2 for the second bit.
-
Thanks Tom ? You know, I was just thinking the same thing about the lyrics and maybe that's what's stopping me from liking it unreservedly. They don't make an awful lot of sense for a start but I've had the song in my head for so long ... I'll put me thinking cap on.
-
That's food for thought Paul, thank you. I'd be interested to know what you don't like about the drums - do you mean when the "loud" drums come in?
-
Thank Jesse. It's by no means finished mix-wise, I just need to convince myself (or not) that it's worth finishing.
-
I didn't mean to suggest that you did, it just reminded me of him, which is good ?
-
Probably impossible to answer but I've been messing about with this for a while now and I just can't seem to make it fly. Don't hold back, if you think it sucks then tell me - I don't want to be flogging a dead horse! https://www.bandlab.com/post/fb31277a-068d-ed11-9d7a-000d3a3eed2a

"Tesco's wheelie bins" did I hear? Like it. Some timing issues but those guitar sounds are really nice. Look forward to the finished product.
-
First Jack and now this. Avant Garde overload ? It's not my cup of tea but I can see why people would like it, and it certainly beats listening to Shouty Capaldi on Radio Two ?
-
Quite Avant Garde I thought and the vocal reminded me of David Byrne. Enjoyed it ?
-
Thanks, I agree ?
-
Oops, I'd forgotten I'd done that Mark. Thanks for the tip though, I think it makes a big difference ?
