I'm happy about the rresponse to my tunes and the recordings....someone asked me to post another .....

I would REALLY welcome some more feedback on the recordings themselves as I am really flying by the seat of my pants and trusting my ears rather than the stas and numbers and technical "musts" and "must nots" ...I've tried to understand compression , for instance, but I still wind up guessing most of the time .

Stick with your ears. Thay are doing you proud.
Another great song and recording.
I could get picky and say that the drums were again a tad louder than they should'a been but i'm not sure if that's the headphones I'm using to listen tonight. I will have to get these songs cranked on the speakers in day time to be sure.

Yep it was the headphones making the drums sound loud.
Sounds great in my speakers.

I've listened to some of your other posts, & I must say - you're one hell of a songwriter -excellent performances too, & great mixes. Generally an all-round talented dude! The only thing I would pick on in this is the lead guitar tone - It sounds a little bit muted & dull for my liking - perhaps brighten it up by massaging it with at bit of eq? Other than that - excellent job! I'll join Bradzoot in confirming that you should trust your ears - they're serving you well!

Thanks for the response to my tune.....I hear you on the lead guitar tone ....I was looking for something "different" but wasn't sure what exactly ....I've never been totally happy with it either so I'm not surprised by your take on it ...... maybe you're right ..maybe just some eq would brighten it up a bit ..I wasn't too sure about the grunge rhythm guitar either....maybe it crowds the vocal too much ?

thanks for taking the time to respond
