one more thing: you are using rode nt-1? i am thinking to get myself one of these...are they good?

"..."feels like heaven"? after the brillant "primary"? pleeeease ;-) "

Hahaha.....yep, yep. It's one of my old time favorites. Music is emotion, remember? It just brings back memories. ;)

Anyway: the Rode NT1-A. Well, I guess I like it, but than again, I don't have any experience with other microphones. I do have a Shure SM58, and even though I can hear a slight difference if I compare the two on the same peace of voice(the Rode obviously being a bit more clear and crisp). But if I EQ that out, than later on I couldn't tell you if I recorded a song with the Shure or the Rode. If I start listening to music in that way, I'd rather quit... Again, music is about emotion and not if I hear the frequency between 2kHz and 3kHz clear enough.
But that said, I still want to buy a new microphone... I'm looking to buy the AKG C535EB. Why? Because Sinatra sang that microphone. I think it's cool.
I listened to several microphone comparisons on youtube or soundcloud, and even though you can hear some slight differences, it's not enough to be really bothered by it. It's just a small ingredient in the pan. The utterly most important one being your voice....;)

But hey...that's just me...

Dear Dick, I agree, sometimes this whole production thing gets a little too much into theoretical physics. Not my cup of tea. Or not yours either, so if you say you like the Rode NT1, that's all I need to know! Thanks for your information, and please keep the (cool) 80ties song covers coming!

That sounded pretty good.

I like it but have never heard the original so I have no other point of reference. 
It is recorded well. 

Sound is good, not a song I know particularly well, but I like what you're going for.
 
I also listened to the FF track. Again sounds good, but the reverb on the vocal sounds a little off to me compared to the guitar - vox sounds a bit roomy whereas the guitar doesn't if that makes sense.

I don't know this song, so this is just listener impressions of the recording. All the individual tracks sound strong, but I'm wondering about the sound stage: the use of microphone placement, pan, reverb, and compression to place instruments relative to each other. Right now it sounds like I'm right next to the vocalist, but the rest of the band is 25 feet away in the opposite corner of the room. Someone above mentioned the relative level of the vocal, I'm sure we're talking about the same thing.

Hey Paulo, I checked FF, and found out that the reverb used for vocals were different than for instruments. I corrected that and now there's a new version. Thanks man, you're really good!

Hey MusicSnob, I'll see if I can check that later this week Thanks for the input!
