That guitar sounds HOT! Best acoustic guitar sound I've heard here on the DUC by a long way. Awesome stuff. Vox sound great too.
I'm looking forward to hearing the finished product.

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

DOC, like I said on the phone last night, Sounds great man. Keep it up.

Now I either have to sell all my gear and give up or take out another mortgage... great!

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

Naaaa.... take out the mortgage! Buy Gear!

Thanks for the kind words! I will update it when we finish thedrums and such.
Cannot wait for the Apogee to show up! Then it is "Go Time!"

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

Hey Doc,

fantastic sound; the guitars were great, they had that punch and vibrancy of a real pro studio, but I'm wondering if they could have used a little more low end? Is that something you were going for?

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

BP,
He wanted them bright, but there are going to be more added and a bass track too. That will help thicken it up some. I did the mastering pretty quickly too. Probably will add more back in. Drums will be real too... The reason track was merely a click track for him. I was surprised that he played it so well.

Thanks

- Doc

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

Hey IntelDoc,

The guitars do sound fantastic, my girlfriend and I are sitting here listening to it again and again lol. Love the different strumming going on in this, definately gives it a great sound and feel. The sound quality is superb. Them apex mics are really working for you. I definately am diggin it, hang on a sec gotta press play again. Ok im back Great job Chris, cant wait to hear the finished product.

Thanks again for your help with the Vintech

Peace
Eddie

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

Eddie,
Thanks! Glad that you enjoyed it. It should be a nice tune when it is all said and done...
Guitars are pretty cool, and he has that strummy strum style that is kinda sweet when you double it all up. There are actually 3 stereo guitar tracks on this right now. Left is -100 and -50. Right is 100 and 50. (respectively) and the other is fully wide -100 and 100. If you listen to Train Wreck on my website, it is the same guy. Same style for the most part. This guy is pretty cool. Busy, he is a med student at Georgetown, and managed to land one of my better session drummers in his band that plays around the area. Really liking the APEX mics. I know that they are not "the best" but the get the job done pretty well. Oh well....

Glad you and the lady liked it. More to follow!

Off now for awhile. Talk to you all in a few days.

- Doc

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

Good stuff Doc !

The gear is helpful, but the person behind the mix is pretty darn good also !

Take Care,
Gene

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

Here's something else that IntelDoc just mix/mastered for us..... a song Paul Curtiz and I wrote around a film script called 'Fa's Garden', which is basically the story of a southern lady haunted by a death in her past. Lyrics by Paul, and I wrote the music...with Ev/Nightshadecrisis on violin.

Fa's Garden

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

Great work Roy, Doc and Nightshade. But I must say I'm a bit dissapointed, I thought that mud-banjo-slide-blues from your last trip would be the next song you'd post Roy

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

Roy and all...Really, really nice tune.

Thanks for posting, it was a very good listen !


Take Care,
Gene

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

Hi Stiff,
Can't wait for you to hear 'Down Dirty Love', which Paul and I just finished tracking...it's a pure rocker...Paul did killer vocals on it last night, and I'm mixing it now...it kicks butt...
-Roy



Thanks, Gene...

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

I'm looking forward to it! Post it ASAP

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

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

Roy, Paul, Ev, and Doc, Fa's Garden sounds great! Well done.

P.S. Roy, did you get my email?

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

Thanks Shawn...your email got me going...I really appreciate your help.
-Roy

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

garrett,
Some really good grooves on these songs...most of em would make great rhythm beds for killer vocals.
Any reason there aren't any vox?...good job.
-Roy

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

Hi Gene,
'Mornings Dew' - great tune, i really like the subtle melodies going on in the background (classical guitar/mandolin i think).
I love the intro with the background percussion. Are they tympani drums with plenty of reverb?
Im really interested in how you got that sound.

Great work mate!

-Ruben

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

Fa's garden = the hotness. very good work. great vibes, but i really like the sound of that rim shot.

garrett la - i heard some good stuff in those mp3s i downloaded. good jams. solid.

regards

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

Hey all:

Over the weekend I got a chance to work on 'If This Is Goodbye' and have it pretty much to where I want it. I redid the leads with one of my guitars that had fresh strings and added a few more vocal tracks under the chorus. After I was happy with the bounce, I brought the stereo file back into PT and put the Waves L2 and the Linear Multi-band EQ on it and quickly re-bounced it to the file that's listed below...comments are always welcome...enjoy!

If This Is Goodbye

Also, took a listen to Fa's Garden - very cool stuff!! Very shimmery! What kind of EQing did you use on it to make it sound so bright...Everything seems to sit nicely in the mix.

Good stuff!

Keep Rockin,
J.

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

Hello Ruben,

Thank you for listening and your kind words.

Yes they are. This song had a number of resons for existing, and one was to experiment with MIDI. My daughter has a Yamaha SO3 and this was a percussion setting that had orchestral samples. I did put a lot more reverb on than I normally do because I was going for a rumble that would last a bit and fade away, and the pattern was ba ba ba baaaaam.

The guitar was my 25+ year old cracked mexican guitar. My mom got it on a trip she went to Mexico, and she knows nothing about guitars, but it is a keeper.

Thank you again for listening.

Take Care,
Gene

J./GenM,
The changes you made on 'Goodbye' sound really good...glad you got it where you want it...thanks for the comments on 'Fa'.
-Roy

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

generation,
for Fa's Garden, Roy sent me the mix pretty much done. He basically sent me 4 stereo files that he mixed, but he did not like the vocal sound. I sent it through the outboard 1176 after I isolated it to a mono VOX track. Then compressed it a bit and brought it forward some. For the mastering part, I first bounced it down to the 48/24 file and opened a new session. Then imported it into a new 48/24 session with the track and a Master Fader. After that I used the Trident 80B that I have as an insert to take advantage of the EQ stage of the Preamp. It has a very nice 4 band that is pretty smooth throughout. Then after that I used the Waves Linear Multiband Compressor and then the L2. The trident really popped the volume up a lot and then the L2, just limited it were it would not distort. I think that it came out pretty well and am happy with it.


Hope this helps?

thanks MindstAt...we really appreciate it.

Re: Mac Mixes!!!!!!!!
 

Great-sounding stuff, everybody. Really like your mixes, RpwBass!

Some pre-release sample mixes of a few songs from the new CD I'm working on can be found here:

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

Good Job! I like the new lead Gats. Harmonies are nice to.

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

This was done a while back...I need to master this mix.

Train of Love

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

Roy,

I really like Train of Love... Really cool sound! That's great man

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

Roy,

Just saw Burn in your signature, when did you post this one? Very dirty, damn wicked bassline too!

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

Thanks STiff...both of those songs are a couple of years old, and I'm about to finally have em mastered. I wrote 'Burn' around some Harley engine samples, which I find very interesting. A Harley engine is a very percussive sound, especially when it's idling...so part of that song is Harley 'pops and chugs'.
Still coming with the new little 'rocker'...Paul's done with the vocals...just a matter of getting it mixed...
-Roy

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

That's pretty neat... What I can't understand is how you come up with the idea in the first place

Great! I'm really looking forward to hear it!

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

Hey Roy
I'm still hoping that within a month or so I'll have some Train of Love vocals for you.

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

That'll be great, Mark...looking forward to hearing it...
-Roy

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

Here's a new one...Paul Curtiz on vocals, and mastered by IntelDoc.

Down Dirty Love

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

awesome song roy, paul, and doc,

sounds really cool. i love that bass.
btw, what is that???
cheers,
ev

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

Hi Ev...I first played a real bass on this, but was never happy how it sat in the mix, so I used a midi slap bass through a Focusrite eq and limiter(I think...hehe)...gettin sleepy here.
thanks, Roy

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

Kudos, Monsieur de Howelle.
Your song got me excited from the get go.
Been humming the damn tune for days...
"...if she ain't back by sundown...Oh SHUTUP, will ya ?"

Stellar musicianship, Roy.

Chris, I can't download your mastered mix right now (link doesn't work for me, might be on my side)
but I have no fears as to the quality of your work

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

Roy, the link for Down Dirty Love doesn't seem to work

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

Here is a corrected link until Roy corrects his. This is off of my site now, but Roy, please correct it when ya can. I am running out of space until I switch hosts.

Thanks man! Cool tune...

DOWN DIRTY LOVE

Off to Albequerque, New Mexico for the weekend to do some Rock climbing. Talk to you all soon!
