Description : I recorded this song using reason along with live guitars and vocal and a few harmonies. A lot of people think of techno electronica when they hear "reason" because of it's capabilities but I prefer to get a "real band" sound as much as possible. I played most of the parts on my Roland keyboard and used the redrum program for drums. I like the way it turned out. Now if I only had the skills and gear for a professional mastering.....

Song still needs some mixing and drum repositioning
Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : A rock tune that has the lead held back except near the end...so you musicians out there can add vocals or lead to it. Starts out with a synth and then builds.
Description : I've Just looked at my old music archives and thought to bring some of them out for you guys to listen to.
Guys, a couple of friends and I, we've got Lowdown with this track.
One of us started with a chord and we followed each other.
I must say there are no sounds like the sounds of real drums.
I hope you enjoy it if you do then please leave me a comment.
Hello Killtone,
This is the first time I have reviewed one of your songs. I happened to catch it as a 'featured track' and thank goodness for that.
I like the song a lot, and I liked the music instruments chosen.
Your voice is nice too. I have Reason, but never use it as it came with my Pro Tools I use.
The drums sound 'live' as I always like that rather than the canned synth type drums which remind me of the Energizer bunny! :-).
So I think you suceeded in making your song sound live. I do the same as much as I can. Sometimes it sounds like your right there in the room.
Good Job.
Oh...as for 'Mastering', a fellow here in my hometown does Mastering for approx. $20 a song. He has his own large old Heath -Allen analog console for recording live bands, and doesn't care for digital that much still, but uses it for mastering. So you might want to check around in your area and just see what it would cost if you want to go that route.
If you do it, ask them excatly how, and what they had to do and maybe you can learn from that, and do it yourself next time. See if you can stay in the studio and watch them! Usually takes 1/2 to 1 hour at most.
I believe here, he uses Sound Forges' audio analysers tools?
Randy
very good indeed
nice one. relaxing tune, all the way around.
Great sound, Great song,Great production,Great Solo,Great Great Great!! Cheers Slap...
Good song. I cant tell if it reminds me of some early 80's songs or if it reminds me of someone like The Ocean Blue. But if you have me thinking that deep you caught my attention. Its a good song. This is hard song to pull off and I think youve done pretty damb good a doing just that.
Bossle'
It is. Nice track. I like the melody and real band sound. I find that one of the toughest things to do, specially since I don't play live very much. Bringing the lyrics up a bit will be good. I'd like to hear more of them on this track. 2 Thumbs up.
hey, that's a real nice song!!!!
tight playing, good guitar solo .....
about the mixing: you should set the vocals to the middle of the mix, they are panned out a little too much for my flavour ....
anyway, I like this track!!!
great work, man ....
peace, rei
Hey...
real nice job!
when I work I find myself focussed on three areas...
Composition: I think the melody themes and vocal and instrumental are very good...one thought is that the song goes on too long with too much repetition (I always struggle with that) try to keep my attention as a good pop rock song should.
Recording/production: I think any "hobbyist" always has a steep learning curve with the software...its one thing to have all these great ideas but another challenge to actually get them into the project as you want and imagined. I think you have done a good job...also one of my goals is to use Reason4 to stretch beyond the typical electronic/techno we usually hear produced and to get a good rock sound out...I use Cubase SX to record guitars and vocals and dump into Reason with NNXT or Rex Recycle....curious how you did yours???
Mastering...ah yes, the make or break point! always a struggle! On your song one suggestion is to bring the vocals out to the top and front...not to overpower but to clarify...right not they are a little lost. back off instruments during vocals and back up during solos etc...I am a novice and am finding that there is a lot of written material out there about EQ, limiting. maximizing mastering etc...I'm finding that like most tasks there are some tried and true "tricks of the trade"...might be good for you to research some of this stuff if you haven't already....
overall I like it and am impressed and encourage you to keep up the good work....
