Master Demo 2 (The first one).  Jason mentioned he wants to record it again, he is not happy with that.  We were just fooloing around one day and captured this.  I thought it would be a nice one to mix and master in X1. 
You are correct it is just DI.  A mistake I won't make again after listening to your recordings.  They sound much more open.

Thanks!

I like this work......

My only nit would be that who ever is playing the guitar part is over driving it......Every note has that little bit of buzzing from the (assuming) Right Hand Attack....

If not then the action is to low and needs to be slightly raised a bit.....

Unless of course you are playing it on a Flamenco guitar  with a Pick)
That is the one thing I had to get used to when listening to flamenco players play.....that buzzing.......it grates on my nerves ....but that is how the instrument is designed so I accept it as that and live with it....but do not like it.......oh well......

but that is "MY" issue......

the tune itself .....I really like.....it drives along very nicely......

Hi Pat, whenever I DI my guitar I use a vst effect called Voxengo Stereotouch. Its freeware and makes the mono DI signal wider and takes away the directness, as if there was some space around the guitar. I usually add a bit of reverb to create even more space. Even when I record with a mic I usually also record a DI track. This gives you more options while mixing. For instance using the DI track to give the guitar sound some extra body by compressing that pretty heavy but keeping the mic track with minimal compression to keep it lively.

I happen to like these kinds of 'jams', 'cause you never know what's gonna come out of them.

I think the playing is really good, but, I'm always picky about acoustic tone, so, throwing a mic in there wouldn't hurt at all.

Very nice.  I don't hear any buzzing but he does hesitate on some of the lead notes.  I play a decent guitar but I do that same thing so I pretty much stick with writing on the guitar and playing bass.  He is much better than me and I think that "hesitation" happens when you are jamming and don't have a plan.  Kinda sounds like what you are saying.  Hey for knockin' one out I really liked it.   I listened again.  I am not anywhere as good as him.  I guess I'll stick to bass!!  :-)  Oh, I liked the tones.

Wow...Haven't checked here in a while...Thanks for all the kind words and constructive comments.
I wish I could play as well as Jason.  He is playing my Martin D15.  He does tend to hit a lot harder than most probably causing thne buzzing you are hearing.  I plan on re-recording Jason using Mikes and DI.  He is hard to get over here so it may be a while.  Stay tuned.

 

 I'm a big fan of Flamenco and Spanish Classical. Enjoyed this very much.
