I'm listening to the tracks now too... dang my stuff sounds like ass.
Can't seem to get rid of boxy tones in the vocals... got a shiny rode k2 on order that hopefully will be an upgrade over the mxl 1006 I'm using now.
Well it's always good to keep yourself humble... there's a reason audio engineering isn't my full time work (yet).
Some notes on my track...
-- vocals and acoustic were tracked in my home "studio" -- not much acoustic treatment and cheap monitors (maudio bx5 + consumer subwoofer)
-- vocal mic is a mxl 1006 large cap condenser, acoustic is a mxl 603s at the 12th fret and the 1006 over the shoulder
-- using the echo gina 3g pres
-- mixed in the box, in cakewalk sonar home studio
-- control strip (eq/comp/gate) is wavearts trackplug
-- drums were cut up, looped, and made to follow a new tempo map
-- mellotron flutes are mtron
-- bass is a sampled rickenbacker from sonic synth
-- french horn toward the end is from garritan personal orchestra
Ok folks, who else has a tune they can submit? 30-something people signed up, and we have four entries? Rough ideas are cool... let's see whatcha got.
I'll post reviews of the tunes when I've had a chance to listen to them a few more times.
