yep.. you want me to turn EQ and compression of as well ?

yeah... I think so ... I can just send 1 picking gtr part 1 strum part gtr part, then 1 vocal track all separate .. which then you could put in your daw individually and summ dub, effect boost cut.. whatever ??? would that work ?? If so I could work on it tomorrow night ?? Maybe.. Im in Florida and Hurricane Mathew maybe heading towards us..lol.. so I might have to hurricane prep....

No.. I do everything in the roland.. tracking, effects, mastering.. etc. then after I master it I burn it to a CD-R then pop it in my computer and "rip It" then Down load it here and sound cloud.. to be honest.. this was the first time I ever even "ripped" a cd .. so..that gives you an Idea of how far I am behind ...lol.. But to give an Idea of the tracks.. I think I have 4 Seperate Gtr. Rythem Tracks, 2 Sep. Lead tracks and It hink I copied the vocal track or " Summed "? the vocal 6 times.. so 6 tracks... lagging 2 of the tracks behind trying a vocal thickening trick.. which I will prob drop out.. as it just gave it a hollow sound.. In my opinion.. I sent you a message thing .. to your profile thing here..After I had visited your page n seen you do acapella stuff.. wondering if you were just wanting basically a raw vocal track alone then a separate Download of the guitar tracks mixed but without effects ?? I havnt yet put it to the VS Planet guys yet.. Im sure they will know how to do it.. there pretty awesome at that stuff.. and very helpful to newbies like me..lol..

Wow.. thanks..for the compliment and the offer.. I would love to do that ... However... Im not very well versed in all this computer and digital stuff.. So Bare with me and my ignorance.. .. This was recorded on a roland vs2480 not a computer DAW.. So I am not sure how I could send you the individual raw tracks ?? And This is my first recording on this vs2480 as well.. lol... Ive only recently got back into music after having left it behind in the early 90's. I.E. Ive got some catching up to do... so any direction on how to do it would be great.. in the mean time... I will check with my " VS Planet " planateers.. who have been extremely kind and helpful in this en devour..And see if they might be able to guide me in doing so... Soo.. if I can figure out how to do it.. I will and would love to do it.. thanks Kyle..

Did you expect heavy guitars and stuff? :))

Believe it or not I do work a lot with orchestra stuff as a matter of fact we are scoring an orchestral piece as we speak :D

I did a lot of stuff in chillout, symphonic, orchestra and movie scoes in the past. It's allways a pleasure.

Couldn't have done it without you! Thanks. :-)

Yes, I enjoyed while making this song, enjoyed this sounds! once again thanks for loops, maybe in future i will make another song from your loops! :)

Your track made it quite easy. I very glad you like it. :-) I sent the files, but I think you and I were sending at the same time, so I've updated the track here. Thanks.

Thanks man, awesome to see someone enjoy the progressiveness of it all :)

Hey Brado, thank you so much for your advice - you were right of course. I dropped the volume a lot, and also removed some of the bass boost - I think it is much better now. I must say, I have never mixed this type of bass before, I used more natural sounding bass before and found that much easier. So thanks again, much appreciated :) TG

Thank you again, couldn't have done it without your loop!

Spank you spank you!

No worries man. Goodluck with your exams! They're more important ;)

Thanks

Well thanks a lot.

I prefer to mic them but if not then it's no problem I'll just reamp them in the DAW. I use Line 6 software and Amplitube with RedWirez Cabinet Impulses quite often but most of the time I just receive great files to start with.

For EQ it really depends on the genre, in this particular style of music I tend to do a lot of really narrow cuts at problematic frequencies like 4kHz, 5kHz, 700Hz etc. and shape the overall tone. I also might use de-essers on guitars to get rid of any harsh frequencies and multiband compressors to tame the low mids.

In general a bit of EQ does a lot to the sound.

If they sound good to begin with and I don't need to fix anything, I'll probably add some 8kHz to brighten them up and make them a bit more fizzy I guess.

Yes they are, meaning there was one guitar recorded for the left and one for the right.

I've never used stereo enhancers on this type of guitars. You can get them as wide as you want by proper balance.

If the guitars are properly edited they will sound amazing.

The answer to the guitar balance is...it should be lower in volume than you think :)

As for the vocal, as I've said....just Reverb, Stereo delay, and tape delay (slap delay)

-Malu-

thanks man i usualy try to make my own sounds what make the quality bad mostly but this time i found some good sounds to play with

Thanks, Brado. I would love to get an actual Vocalist to sing on my track(s). I have been trying to get better myself and I have made some progress but I will never be known for my singing. :)
Oddly the drums are off at 4:07on the render but not on the Master. I am going to render it again and see if it is fixed. Thanks for the kind words of support.

Thanks a lot! It does encourage me.

*gniffles* Does my own voice, run through FL's vocodex counts? lol..

That does sound kind of cliche but with the proper use will work out as a nice extra touch. I've already done those part actually.

I just started producing for fun and love for music so i'll keep it at solo producing for now. Adding good vocals is again a whole other lvl for me.

Thank you for your reply and kind words!! No automatic appregiators here. Only things i've used 'ready to go' in the entire track is 3 different drum loops, adjusted with extra claps/hihat/kick etc. So I could focus on all the rest which is more important to me then creating my own drum lines at this moment.

I've been working on the track (and so on this part has again changed for the better) day after day and it should be finished towards Monday. Then gets a hand at mixing and mastering from a professional who looks how I attempted those 2 proccesses and makes it all smoothened out. Then it will be uploaded again.

Just to give an idea, this short piece took me well over 70 hours since its not just producing i'm learning but understanding the software takes up a lot of time. The creation of this was easier then how to create the sound/effect etc of my imagination actually inside the software.

I use FL 10.0 or 10.2 or something.
