Thanks! Yeah, I'm looking forward to filling out "Small Comfort" a bit. I definitly agree with you about the sax. I also plan on laying down some acoustic drums (the loops will act as color) and some more electric gtr.

Thanks for listening. Anyone else? [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

BigRed,
I listened to "Douglas in a Spacesuit" all the way through. It is a fine tune and sounds great. My thoughts (and this is nitpicking, but that's why we do this, right) are that the beginning acoutic guitar was not quite loud enough...the electrics come in and seem to overpower it. Also the drums seem too "far away". Whether that was miking or effects I don't know.
Ofcourse it's all very subjective and the bottom line is, it sounds great - nicely done.

I agree with you 100% on that intro acoustic. I'm planing on boosting it when we do the final mix.

The drum sounds are intended to be somewhat "distant". Niether the band, nor myself wanted a "sharp" close mic sound, so I used a 3 mic setup - snare, kick and mono overhead. No verb and a touch of eq help complete that earthy, live, brit pop kind of vibe.

Thanks for your comments!

Well I've got another one up, I actually did it back in oct/nov. but just finally decided to put it up after I just did a little polishing this afternoon..

It is called Witchqueen, and is here .

It was inspired by a friend of mine who is definately witchy in her ways... and when she is she does it like a queen. (think alice in wonderland queen... OFF with his HEAD)

Here is one of my first Pro Tools mixes.
It's a demo of a tune from my band that we will actually start tracking the drums for in a few weeks.
I think there will be a few issues here.
1. I need to get a set of good monitors.
2. The drums were tracked to a Roland VS880 then dumped to a stereo mix and imported into PTLE
3. This music isn't your normal pop style stuff.

Any suggestions/comments are welcome.

Hey guys, this is a piece that I just put together for a screenplay called Presidential Matters. This would be for the opening scene. Let me know what you think.

Tim,
The mix sounds good. The only thing I can think of is that maybe a little more seperation on the guitars. Which part of the swamp are you from? I'm from Louisiana and a Texas transplant myself.

Plastik,
Nice mix, I can hear everything cleanly, good volumn.

Roy,
Moonbeam - Killer guitar tones again with nice playing to boot! Good punchy mix. The song reminds me of Satch's Flying in a Blue Dream sound somewhat (thats a compliment btw [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] ).

Seems the vocals are bit loud in the mix.

Could be my ****** headphones though.
