Acoustic guitar - nice room ambience technique

Thought I'd pass this on. I was watching some YouTube clip and this one came up as a related item and I happened to check it out. It's a simple demonstration of how to make some nice choices regarding getting ambience for an acoustic guitar. This technique could apply to a bunch of stuff. I think th..

New Mumford and Sons album rings it at around -7 dB on the EBU Meter

Holy smoke the recording is loud! The diamond in the vector scope is clear. Sometimes I doubt all I've learned...

I admit it. I suck at Musical Time, Time Sigs and math in general. Looking for tuts...

I've been playing by feel and ear for my entire 25 years as a musician. I can play, learn and write in all sorts of crazy time sigs but I have absolutely no idea what it all means aside from the basics like 2/4, 3/4, 4/4. That's all well and fine when just jamming with a band but it really gets anno..

Office Cubicles - and sound

A buddy of mine the other night mentioned playing a gig in an office filled with all those partitions that make up cubicles, and marveled and how acoustically dead the room was. Any thoughts on this material applied to studio situations?..

They have the Q size and all that... so why would anyone want to use a plugin like that? It seems e..

Lyrics first motto

It's become so easy and enjoyable to throw together a new song in Sonar. I've noticed I've accumulated a heck of a lot of unfinished songs because the music arrived first and I never got back to the lyrics, so I had nothing to sing, so I have a big pile of backing tracks abandoned ideas. I'm turning..

Music Theory (and all that jazz)...

Quite embarrassing, in a way, because I've been creating "music" for some time now, with only ever occasionally delving into the theory side of things. Why start now, I wonder... Well, I dunno. I could carry on doing what I'm doing. I only really create stuff as a hobby and I enjoy it. But one thing..

Customising VST PNG files

Has anyone tried customising VST PNG files. I assume that's how we see them. Seeing my new VKFX within Sonar, I think they jump out in their gold scheme, but not in a good way. I tried a search and found a Thumbnail and a Standin image, the latter being the right size, but contains the knob image. I..
