I agree..It's the talent that makes this work and not the gear (althought it helps) but i think you were very creative in this project..... you have that very nice british type sound going on here...........just cannot get over how clean and clear the mix is.............you did well

this is awesome Kevin! It just goes to show that talent will create better sounds than all the best equipment in the world! very cool job. vox are a little too dry for my taste, and I'm hearing a little hiss (high noise floor on one of the tracks maybe?), but it's not bad, only occassionally hear it. hmmm...well plosives are kind of heavy on the lead vox, too.
excellent job, tho, kevin! love it!

REECE....THANK YOU very much I always look forward to your reviews. Actually what you are hearing is the furnace. My studio is in the basement and one day I hope to have walls. I have to try to record before the furnace kicks on. I lose everytime  . Anyway I THANK YOU again for the listen and kind words. LATER Kev

SCOTT....THANKS for taking the time to listen and the props. Thats the cleanest the studio has ever looked, in that pic. THANKS! JAMES .... Every song on my Soundclick I swear you hear that darn furnace. Thats probably the air quality everyone comments on my tunes. LOL THANKS! JIMMY.... The SM57 was pointing at a 45 degree angle towards the hole right where the neck and body meet. I recorded one performance and panned it 95% to the left with low and mid tones. Then I took the same performance panned 70% left with mid and high tones. I recorded a second performance and then panned it 95% to the right with low and mid tones. Taking the same performance and panning it 70% to the right with mids and highs. This gives you 4 tracks total. I used a OVATION guitar so not the best sounding acoustic. THANK YOU very much for the listen Jimmy. LATER Kev

hey i've got to say a lot of the songs on your sound click page sound good. I thought the one done with a 57 sounds good. also the rest of them sound good too! I really like fallen. I like the break down and the lead in the beginning>>>whole song. It's cool with the radio too. Central missouri huh? which town? actually chech your inbox i'm going to mail you.
