Strummy, Now we need to get you started on SHS6XL. and then onto Sonar SE, then PE. That will see you through the progression from Acolyte to true master.....

Sounds good, Steve.
The guitars have a lot more dimension and presence. Maybe put a little more verb on your vocal track, but not as much as before. It sounds kind of 'straight off the board". Try not rolling off the highs quite as much, to give your voice a little more brightness. Not much. I like the sound and feel of this version much better.

Next stop...Albert Hall...

Thanks for the kind words and for the advice Bob - I'll try what you say with the vocals.

I do have to clarify that that's not me singing though - 'tis my old mate and bassist SidStrummerUK on lung duty. I can assure you that if it was yours truly crooning your advice would have probably been "That'd work nice as an instrumental Steve"

He had a cold at the time and sang it through a £2 karaoke machine microphone! He recently found our old condenser mic that we used for vocals years back and with a nifty bit of soldering I've managed to get it working again so that vocal will soon be completely re-recorded.

Once that's done I reckon we'll [BTLaw = Me, Sid and Doc] be just about happy enough to make the tune's debut in the Songs forum!

BTW, I think I'll steer clear of Albert Hall - I'm not much of a Woody Allen fan.

RobertB, thanks for that tutorial! I'll give a go at remixing "Pants on Fire" and see if the backup vocals track can be improved with the reverb via a subgroup.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. This has been on my mind for the last three days. I feel better now that I got it out of my system. Sorry all .

Same goofy humor as mine, soc. Yours is funny though.

Doc,
Steve beat you to it. Check his song post. That was what inspired the Albert Hall reference. I think New York may be a bit of a run on a double-decker.
