"A noodle a day keeps the shrink away"

[Rikkie]

Hi All,  it may surprise  you all, but I made another noodle ?  Bass and drums are studio instruments, wah wah guitar is th3 with an autowah, lead is Positive Grid which I got for free last week. Mastering by Bandlab.

 

Rik

edit: played a new rhythm guitar double tracked left and right, changed the sound on the lead guitar to th3

edit:  as per hsmusic suggestions tried to tame the wahwah guitars a bit with sonitus multiband and a bit less reverb.

Nice ideas in that there noodle. The rhythm guitar is perfect but could be a bit clearer imho, overall I can hear this being a nice intro to more of a song????

[Rikkie]

Hi Larry, thanks, you're absolutely right about the muddy rhythm guitar, played it with my thumb and on the neck pickup.

Hi Rik

Agree about the rhythm Guitar

But the rest I like a lot - an excellent (extended) Guitar solo??

Love the Bass by the way

Very cool

Nice track but check the mix , its distorted.

[Rikkie]

Hi hsmusic, thanks, I'll take your word for it, my ears are abit distorted ?

O.K...I listened to the first mix before & just now saw the second underneath.  That one is much better, the left  rhythm gtr is slightly distorted, there's a freq. that's dominant & poking out, maybe try cutting that a bit & you might also pad back the reverb on it a bit. It washing over the melody.

Another nice doodle, enjoyed it.

Listening to  the second mix, I like sounds fine to me, and I like it.

My critical ears are currently taking a vacation so they just said hi RIk.

Hi Hsmusic, tried to tame the wahwah guitars a bit with sonitus multiband, there is a delay on the lead guitar ,turned the mix a bit down and a bit less reverb

Hi hsmusic, thanks for listening !

Love it!  I have struggled with trying to use Wah plugins.  I think that your efforts on the one panned hard right sound very good.  I'll have to give the TH3 a try.  However, in my instance, I'm afraid it is the player and not the plugs.

I enjoyed listening and I think the mix sounds good!!

Hi Freddy, thanks forlistening, glad you like it. It's nice to experiment with TH3.
