Ha! That's funny and a compliment, tell her thanks! The more I check them out the more I'm surprised they never made more of a mark on US radio. Really only Matchstick Men was played over here.

The Quo's still rockin', live tv from Germany just 2 years ago:

Thanks, take care folks!

Wayne

Thanks man!

I try not to over produce my tracks, the keep it simple stupid approach, he. I wish I had harmonicas in all the keys because I might have added some here and there, possibly in the end to fill in some spaces.

Take care!

Wayne

Thanks Michael!

Wayne

Appreciate the kind words! Been working a lot on the bass, hardest instrument to get right I believe.

Cheers!

Wayne

Thanks Angelus for the nice compliments!

I took a couple months off to basically get away from recording and set up all my new gear(comp, interface, guitars, software...). Come back with fresh ears.

Wayne

Thanks Paul!

Wayne

Appreciate the kind words! Just doing my own thing in a world of people not doing my thing, lol.

Cheers!

Wayne

I haven't updated to Live 12 yet but I heard it comes with the new Bold plugin so I should be covered in the future. ;)

Thanks!

Wayne

Thanks! Good to see you around!

No, haven't noticed any latency issues. From ez into your daw? I skipped ez 2, didn't look like it would help me anymore than ez 1. But ez 3 is a different monster. Way more samples, more ways the tracks can be mixed, it's just leaps and bounds beyond ez 1.

Wayne

well....maybe. lol!

I sing, if it's any good is up to the listener I suppose. But it does help me get ideas put together much quickly not having to get a singer involved.

Thanks Mos, hope all is going well down under!

Wayne

It was a much needed break. My old intel imac still works as a stand alone music production machine but all the new standards for internet were past my comp's ability to keep up. Starting fresh is good, keeps the mind attentive and updated.

Thanks Paul!

Wayne

Thanks Mos!

I'm finally getting to the point I'm starting to like my mixes, a long and winding road it's been. The last few years I've been concentrating on gain staging, been helpful. Plus I'm recording at 96,000 hz and I have some decent instruments and mics so I'm getting quality recordings to start with.

Take care, glad to see ya back!

Wayne

Hi AJ, good to see an old friend! Thanks for stopping by, hope everything is going great for you.

Yup, still at it, ha! Dodging hurricanes these days down here in Florida, storms and music, exciting times, lol!!

See ya around!

Wayne

Thanks for stopping by and the nice comments!

Wayne

Thanks man!

There's enough mistakes, no need for scratches on top of them. ;)

Wayne

Thanks again, your comments are so fun!

I hadn't played the harmonica in a bit so I figured this would be a good one for it.

Wayne

Fixed the spelling, thanks!

Wayne

Thanks Paul for the kind words!

Wayne

Thanks!

I never write the words out before I start singing, I just get an idea for the lyrics, hit the red button and start singing. Sometimes lines like "i heard a bumble bee scream" come out of nowhere. I don't know what it means but i liked it and left it in, he.

Good luck on your guitar safari. I paid $650 at Sweetwater for my Epiphone "inspired by Gibson" 60's Les Paul Standard which I think is a steal for these gems. Gibson has had some rough times lately and putting out an Epiphone that's pretty darn close to their Gibson line will get people, like me who doesn't want to pay 3 grand for a Gibby, to buy them. Plus all the vids on yt are nothing but praise for these. Keep me updated on your new git.

Wayne

Thanks shroomer!

I just bought a new Epiphone "inspired by Gibson" Les Paul Standard and a newly reissued The Guv'nor guitar pedal. A lot of sound for the buck. And I do like to mix my drums loud. Form years of band practice and playing in clubs, the drums always are the loudest thing in the room. Unless you have "that" guitarist, lol.

Wayne

Thanks Paul!

I mixed this one for 2 months and still am not overly excited about the mix. Just needed to move along and post it.

Take care man!

Wayne

First off, thanks for stopping by and commenting! Secondly, It's just a song I made up for the all alone idea, nobody left anyone, ha! But I do get your point.

The distorted vocals is something I've been messing around with lately. When all you've done in the past is a normal matching backup or harmony with some reverb or delay it can get old so I've been playing with overdrive as an option. I appreciate the good feedback though!
