I'm not SO sure about this track?
I'm done working on it for now even though it's a bit sloppy.
This is my bass debut.
The acoustic guitar was recorded direct???
What do YOU think:?:
I'm open to candid constructive criticism?

I like it, reminds me of rebirth of cool stuff. Sounds close and kind of intimate. Some different kind of funny sounds in here, the bwah bwah...bwah bwah bwah.....might be a bit much up in the mix ??
I'm liking the bass, and the guitar sounds tasty.

Cool tune chuck! the bwahbwah sound appears a bit too often for my taste. I dig the guitar and the vocals are great too.

Hey Chuck, you have such a terrific feel for guitar... the lead is just beautiful. The groove has a really nice natural bump to it as well. I think it's good to try different things, to wonder whether you've done something wrong... you're pushing yourself and your art in different/new/experimental ways.

Thanks Hans-I appreciate you candor. I have been bit by the Dubstep bug-OUCH! Those bsahbsah sounds would be referred to as the ever contentious 'WOBBLE' I find Dubstep VERY interesting- I know allot of peeps find them offensive including my wife.Dr.Wu wrote:Cool tune chuck! the bwahbwah sound appears a bit too often for my taste.

Nice cool vibes here Chuck. This one has a Stanley Jordan feel. I can live with the dubstep stuff. Some nice guitar work on here and the bass is great although a couple of the high lines were probably just a little too far forward in the mix. The keyboards are ultra-smooth. The track as a whole is very lush and calming.
Nice work.
Nice work.

very mellow, breezy sorta track. i'm always up for a little bossa nova type feel. the guitar playing is excellent as always, nice to hear some bass guitar as well--what's your signal path for that?

Thanks for posting Tim...and thanks for pointing that out-the bass being a bit up front...(and a bit sloppy I might add-no quantize button-help!) I need to hear that - it's hard to be critical of my our stuff sometimes?...you know?...and listening to it with more of a critical ear I can hear that the bass probably needs to be done over again-at least bits of it...I try and not take this music stuff tooooo seriously...you know...keep it fun....seismic1 wrote:Nice cool vibes here Chuck.

Hey Johann thanks for posting...maybe you or someone might have some suggestions on how to get a good bass tone? I'm just running direct into a Behringer board ( I'm really unhappy with, wish I would have opted for Mackie?) and that's it! Inside the DAW (Ableton) I have two bands on the bass track-one is dry with nothing on it and the other I have Abelton's overdrive distortion on it-lows cut?jopy wrote:very mellow, breezy sorta track. i'm always up for a little bossa nova type feel. the guitar playing is excellent as always, nice to hear some bass guitar as well--what's your signal path for that?
This bass bizz is new to me?

Chuck if you have a budget i can really recommend the Marcus Miller Preamp from SWR.
IIt is the swiss army knife of bass preamps.
Very happy with it.
If money is tight i would recommend getting a good preamp with a HiZ input and use a plug in like the IKmultimedia or the Markamp.

Hey Chuck, this one has a great feel and relaxed groove, and some very tasty playing. As far as bass sounds are concerned - I noticed you used a PodX3 in an earlier track, there are some nice bass amp & cab models well worth checking out. The direct-recorded guitar sounds bright and clear, but maybe a (very)little room or ambient reverb would enhance it?
And Chuck? Move away from the quantize button

I wasn't talking about the bass playing, Chuck. There were a couple of high fills that sounded way up in the mix compared to the regular bassline. It was just a levelling problem. I used to do the same thing back in the day when I played chords on my Hagstrom Swede live in concert. The level was fine for single-note basslines, but the higher notes/chords tended to jump to the fore (and scare the guitarist).any1particular wrote:Thanks for posting Tim...and thanks for pointing that out-the bass being a bit up front...(and a bit sloppy I might add-no quantize button-help!)
