Well, I do have other people double check and make use of forum comments. I've never used meters (SPAN and such) much. It's all instinct and using the same techniques that worked in the past. Oh yeah, I mainly mix in headphones and crank those suckers up to 11.

31 - 3K I'm 68 and had serious genetic inner ear damage in my left ear in the 80s (Doc said I should be stone deaf and it's a miracle I can hear anything there). Right ear has been failing for over 10 years now. 10 years ago I could hear up 6K pretty clearly. Hearing aids help but on the flip side when I wear them I hear even the whisp of a leave in the wind to major distraction.

I see what you did there.

I have an 1976 Series I Alembic Bass. I am technically the original owner although it was actually first owned new by a young kid for about two weeks before I bought it. Oh yeah, my son is a much better and somewhat famous musician in the Death Metal Scene. One degree of separation there. The most important thing I ever did (in the software industry) was create a product that was used for many years by Boeing in St. Louis, MO back in the 80s. Of course there was over 80K posts on the old cakewalk forum. Does that make me a bad person?

Got the Finality and Gain Reduction for $32 so I'm fairly happy since they were both below list price before the 25% off.

oooomph!

HP 3000s had a proprietary language called SPL (System Programming Language, novel huh?). I played with that a little (modified some simple things, never a new program).

Pretty much the same for me. Although by that time I was already programming in Fortran, Cobol and Basic on the HP-3000 Series III "mini computer" at work. Yes, it was referred to as a mini computer and compared to some IBM 360 installations I had seen, it was even though those units were just under 6 feet tall filled with sooooooo much air inside.

Yup, this. CbB is like an ex band mate that I'm still friends with. Maybe a collab or two over the years. Full disclosure: I do have a 2013 MacBook Pro where I can run all of my multi-platform DAWs plus Logic X. In other words, I'm not a truly Windows only user.

tl;dl

Louder might be the answer, or some EQ to make the vocal cut through the mix a little more. It's *almost* like they are muffled/masked.

This!

Pretty much how ProTools is setup (except PT uses HUI, as he described in the vid).

Yep, I'm SO centric now too. I am working ProTools for a project. Strange days.

Tightest support = Studio One /Reaper/Mixbus/Mixbus 32C OK Support = CbB, requires reset to SONAR/Cakewalk mode Weak Support (flakey) = ProTools 2020, works most of the time, but requires reset of device occasionally when in required HUI mode. I have not tried it in Cubase, Logic X, or Digital Performer yet. I won't even waste my time on Mixcraft 9 or Samplitude X5 as I never really use those.

Confirmed!

+1 Michael No credit for the drums?

Oh yeah and I'm still stuck with $44 in DoorJambPointz.

Since I don't specifically own TS2 I only got an additional $100 off in the cart. Again, $399.99 to upgrade to TS3 is waaaaaaaay too much especially since I already own (bought ala carte) the entire contents of TS3.

Since I never used AmpLion (1) yet I expect I would be blown away by 2.

I had a random thought today. But then I lost it.

Yup I do, but I also want the EP too and that's $179 right now. I'll wait for the next group buy and likely pick them both up for a tad more that the $113 upgrade cost (if the discount hits 40%). I'm not dying for a Banjo or an EP right now so I can be patient.
