Guitar with Piano resonance

I suppose this is the best place to post this rather than an ongoing thread in the Coffee House. In Dave Cousins's autobiography he briefly describes the technique used to create the guitar tone on "Down by the Sea" on the "Bursting at the Seams" album. I have always been amazed by that tone. The gu..

Future Music magazine did a one hour video visit to these guys and showed the whole session from beginning to end, genuine song being made and showing the vocal recorded and EP playing and recording etc, and the various processes to that end. Thought some might find it revealing and helpful. They ar..

embedding a secret message in your song

I've been thinking about this for a while and it seemed pretty easy, but I wasn't sure. Wanted to know if I could embed text messages in a wav file that someone else could read without discernible artifacts. Turns out it was pretty easy...here's a vid..

Fully-damped Drums: Possible with AD2?

I've been searching for this type of sound for a while, sort of like what Ringo did in his 'tea towel' days. Fully-damped drum sounds without any ringing whatsoever, just good solid hits. I previewed all the AD2 AddPaks and walked away with Black Oyster, Session and Vintage Dry, the three that sound..

Mid-Side techniques for all plugins

Been watching the "Into the Lair" series on Youtube and was fascinated by his use of MS to open up space for instruments, as in cut the lows in the mid-channel of a submix so the kick and bass sit well. Cool. So I looked for a post on this, and there was none, so thought I'd share: 1. Go get Voxengo..

What service(s) do you use to sell your music?

I'll be completing some video game soundtracks over the next few months and would like to sell the soundtracks digitally online. In other words, I want to sell the full soundtracks to the games that I've already completed and are released. I don't mean selling my tracks as assets to be used in games..

Help recording good sounding clapping

I'm working on a song where I'm trying to get a rhythmic clapping effect using multiple, layered claps. Trying to get that "gospel choir" feel a bit, although the clapping is not a quarter notes type of thing, but more of a fast 16th note thing. Either way, trying to get a big, fat sound. I recorded..

Compressor As A Gain Plugin

Earlier I asked about Blue Cat Audio and was turned on to their free suite, which includes a Gain plugin. Have it now. M. Senior advises that a DAW's Volume Fader is best left near unity and that a track strip's Gain knob is underutilized. I do use the Gain knobs in Sonar, but I've also inserted a c..
