Guitarhacker, I realized a few secs ago that you are from NC. I reside in Duplin County (a lil town called Warsaw).

my sister used to live in Wallace.... down there in your neck of the woods. She just got married and moved up the coast to Elizabeth City area....

cool

I get down that way every now and then...headed to and from a customer in Wilmington.
 PM me an email address and I'll send you an export in MP3 of what I ended up with for 10 to 15 minutes of "work".... see what you think.

one more thing.... the music is all midi and while the synths and bass and kick are good.... the brass sounds "midi" but that can either be good or bad.... if you're looking the retro sound.... it works, if you're trying to be modern, you'll need to use better brass... likely found using a synth that uses samples of real brass.

Kontakt is a nice starting point for better quality sounds.  and from there up... the only limit if how much you have to spend....the better samples cost more.

I'm not asking for anyone to do anything for free actually. I am asking for some pointers on eq'n and fx's. Also, if someone sees fit to take on this task, I will be willing to trade off services such as composing some tracks, production tips, etc. However, if money is an issue, we can discuss such. I am not a freeloader. Everyone (in my opinion) has to pay their way in some shape or form, but help/advice is returned with help/advice. You never know who I may be or know. Thanks to all who replied, reviewed this post and/or downloaded the cakewalk bundle.

In that case I'll download it when I get home later and have a listen, although Herb (Guitarhacker) seems to be on the case with this one - he knows his stuff!

Cool..and yes, Guitarhacker does!!
