She LOVES my practicing (not!) - I posted a pic of my control room on dabasstard's site so you can check it out - my assistant engineer is sitting at the console. (his name is Maxwell)... The EW+F reference is missed because I realized that the vocal arrangement is incomplete in this mix - the bridge has a lot of falsetto harmony parts that I haven't finished yet, so I left them out....that's all.

Hey guy, we need to get you some serious airplay. This is really good.

If I went looking for anything about the song for you to think about, it might be finding something more interesting to do with the lead guitar, but if you didn't I'd still enjoy it a lot.

Good work!

Cheers,

Thanks mark... Glad you enjoyed it....

Vox,

Excellent song, and fantastic recording. Mark's right. Also, ending is a bit abrupt, but otherwise great. I was a little surprised at the high quality (no offense) [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

The actual Song is a minute longer...with a nice fade out..... The version you hear is just an edit.... Wanted to keep the file as small as possible...

Here's the first Cinemafixer/Roy Howell collaboration. I played the slide guitar solo. I tell you, it's a pleasure to play with a gentleman of Matt's caliber. The other guitarist is Jeff Pevar, from CPR, David Crosby's band. My solo comes at about 3 minutes in...

This is our first collaboration, and I'm already working on the next one. But, here's the first ruff mix...

Cinemafixer and Roy,
Great work! It took me about 10 attempts to connect to Da BaSsTaRd's server. I assume that was all the internet airplay going on when the whole DUC tuned in to hear you're new work.

Keep it up guys!

Cheers,
Mark

Cinemafixer - great stuff!! I had a listen to Immortal and love it. Vox need to come up in the mix though - and I LOVE the B3!! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Although it takes over a bit in the mix sometimes - a little comp/limiting needed, maybe?? Just a thought...

Speaking of Hammonds, can I pick your brains on how you set the organ up (drawbars, vibrato/chorus, how much overdrive etc.) & miked the Leslie? I just got a C3 and 122 Leslie a fortnight ago and I LOVE your recorded sound. I don't want to stray too off-topic here, so should I email you or does everyone here want to know how to get a great Hammond sound?? [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Drawbars and vibrato chorus are things that I can't really advise you on, too much. I can tell you the following, though. for comping on that track, I used the lower manual set to approx. 008850000 - the upper was set approx to 888655068 - moved ar ound quite a bit. When I wanted more uumph, I pull the 4th,5th and 6rh out more - when I want it brighter (like on the bridge), Ill shape it to around 848000048. Experiment with the leslie fast/slow and C-3 vibrato setting - the vibrato interacts with the Leslie on the fast setting - gives more bite and growl - paddier sounds come with leslie slow no vib. By the way, the numbers Im using refer to the order in which the drawbars appear for each group (there are 9) and the numbers themselves refer to the volume of each bar. Three mics - left/right high on the CORNER of the box (the closed corner to resuce wind noise)- 2 condensers in a 90 degree angle. The bottom I use a 421 or 4050 or re-20 on the far side positioned to reduce wind noise. the crossover in the leslie crosses over at 800
HZ, so remember that the bottom mic is all the meat of the organ - don't neglect it - the tops can be low passed at 8k to eliminate noise from the motors etc. use the tops sparingly - just add persence and image with them - otherwise your sound will be cold and brittle - Not what you want from your organ!
