theHumps

Thanks Manuela!

The new Epiphone Les Paul Jr has 1 P 90 Pro pickup in it as compared to the 2 humbuckers the Les Paul I bought last year has. Totally different beast and different tones and I feel it's gonna be my new favorite guitar. Love the chunky 50's neck this has.

See ya around!

Wayne

Been tested, hump free!

The lunatic gets his justice, yeah bitches!! lol.

My new Epiphone Les Paul Jr is pretty darn awesome, it's amazing how many tones you can get with one pickup. Plus it's a third cheaper than a Gibson, I feel like I'm stealing from them when I buy these new guitars.

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! Things are going ok, can't complain, thanks for asking.

We create our opportunities for success or failure. Usually, the harder you work at something, the more it pays off for you in the long run. Call it making luck if you want. This guy is just down on his luck and he's letting you know, he.

Wayne

Hey pal! No, not Spiv on vox, that's my new, rough rock voice, lol. Thanks for the nice words!

I write short songs mostly 2-2.5 minutes. Way easier to mix a short song, less time spent mixing, so much less content to list to and scrutinize. Why put yourself thru the agony of a 6 min track? Must take weeks to mix, he. Can do 3 songs in that time and learn more that way. I do get a lot of comments saying the song was too short, oh well. Hit the play button again I say!!

Wayne

We all strive to be different when it comes to doing this, well I hope we all do. Got my new git and pedal so I'm putting it to good use. Epiphone Les Paul Standard/The Guv'nor by Marshall.

Haven't seen you in a while, hope all is well.

Cheers!

Wayne

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Not my best performance on the theremin, tough scale I chose to play on it so I wasn't as fluid as I would have liked.

Wayne

Thanks, appreciate the kind words!

Wayne

Starting to get my snottiness and negativity factor to peak just in time for the holidays, lol!

Thanks!

Wayne

There's a lot of this kinda music being made these days. It's more modern rock to me than classic rock even tho it's roots are solidly bedded in the "classic" rock style. I think of the Black Keys, for instance. I'm doing music in that general style without trying to directly sound like them.

You get your style from your music heroes, nicking this off that guy and this thing off of that guy. Like John Prine, he's another guy who I take his lyric writing style to heart, some humor, weird situations in the songs and great stories. Combine good lyrics with some cool, modern sounding classic rock or punk, well that's a formula that excites me musically!

Thanks Paul!

Wayne

I'm glad you liked it, wasn't sure how this would go over. It's a bit loud and in your face with my usual, down on his luck, complaining character that I've been developing these past few years. Hope people don't take these songs as my personal life, man I'd be one sad sack, lol.

The theremin works, I had no intention of putting anymore guitar down, there's enough going on with the distortion on the guitars and the bass. I wanted the solo to be the theremin, it cuts thru the thick guitars, plus it's freekin' cool, lol!

Wayne

Thanks Mickey!

Thanks!

Gaining more confidence in my singing, absolutely. Been working hard at developing my delivery, grit and attitude. It's like performing, you gotta sell the track. Some people have this naturally, not me. I'm a bass player not a front man. Having fun with it.

Wayne

Look who's talking, your reviews are pretty darn energetic!!

Thanks!

Wayne

Thanks danke!

Making the decision to add a new track playing just the E on the right helped. Left track - both pickups, right track - bridge pickup.

Wayne

Thanks krotan!

There is a solo in the track, 1:20-1:30. I mentioned it in the description, Moog theremin lead.

Wayne

And thanks again!

Thank you!

I had the 3 chord guitar progression played on one track and panned to the left. Then I decided to add a new track with just the E chord on the right and remove the E on the left channel. Simple change but makes a difference as far as balance in the track.

Been really enjoying the new git!

Wayne

Thanks!

Wayne

That's an interesting suggestion for a song to do. Thanks for swinging by and leaving such nice comments!

Wayne

Yup, 2 guitar tracks, bass, drums and some singing. Rocked it up a bit!

Wayne

Thanks!
