the boy

Nice photo although I'm not feeling anything at the moment. I'm sure it will ignite my inspiration sooner or later.

Congrats to skol. Great compo.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1416665773' post='2612463'] [size=4]I gave it a go with my November entry, too. I already use mastering software, which gives me excellent results, but I must admit that the Landr result was even better (disclaimer: I'm more than half-deaf, so pinches of salt could be in order..! ). It's certainly a lot faster than the multi-pass software on my creaking old XP PC..! I'm going to replace my current Soundcloud entry with the new version and we'll see if it sounds OK to others...[/size] [/quote] Et tu brute? I really need to up my game if I'm gonna put a tune together. That's it I'm booking Brian Eno for the December composition challenge.

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1416663521' post='2612437'] In just tried it with my composition entry for this month and wow , it really added a lot to it , thanks for that . I guess mastering is another tool to the armory [/quote] Cheating bastard. I'm taking my vote back.

Some people are scruffy. That's it. And it's not even the clothes fault. Some people look scruffy naked. It doesn't matter to me. I do what I do and the do what they do. I've got enough trouble getting myself dressed without worrying about anybody else.

My vote has been cast.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1416525311' post='2611278'] A few hours spare..? I'd get nearly a dozen done in that time..! [size=4] [/size] ([i]OK, none would be any good, I'll grant you, but still... A few hours..![/i] [size=4] [/size][size=4] )[/size] [/quote] About 70% would probably be of questionable standard but the remaining 30% would be pure gold. I've been keeping pie charts on all of ye. lol.

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1416528006' post='2611297'] sing boy sing ed to add if you want to re-vocal mine and send me the wav , I will give you the credit and let you have some input for the photo for next month [/quote] The last thing you need to do is pair up with me. I'm a right Diva. 👑💅

Been out of the loop for a few months now. I'm really gonna try this time to get something in. I never have any spare minutes these days. I have a few hours tomorrow. Hopefully I will get something done.

Really great. I think I'll play that next time I'm at an open mic. I bet it would work great on acoustic. And to boot..... The barmaids name is Sue and she loves a good throttling. It must be liberating to be at a stage in your career where you can churn out music like that because you want to. No pressure from the record company. I liked it, it was edgy. I don't think I wanna hear it again though.

Awesome track by is1966 got my vote. Well done. All great tracks.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1415789060' post='2603716'] I've no idea. From now on, you're on your own. [size=4] [/size] [/quote] 😉. Used to be my favourite movie.

That looks legit to me. If I was on the look out, I'd have that.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1415715213' post='2602956'] +1 for the Beginners Guide +1 for Reaper +1 for mixing with headphones (at least whilst waiting for monitors...) +111 for jumping in with no complexes; this is for fun, and great fun it is, too..! [/quote] This....

I sold Tom an interface. All went great. He is a top bloke. Mark.

Well don't sir. A fine piece of work.

Tony bought an interface off me. Great guy. Very smooth deal.

I'm having trouble picking one this month.

Voting already. I was working on a tune this month. Ah well not to worry. It was pants anyway (my tune). Next month for sure.

It's all about promotion. You've gotta be identified. You must stand out. Do something completely off the scale at your gigs that will get people talkin. Social media is key these days. You need to get people communicating about your band on social media. Do something like an ice bucket challenge for all the band but one of the guys is wearing baggy trousers and they fall down when he gets iced. That's a silly example off the top of my head but something like that will get your name in people's faces. Oh yeah.... Be nice.

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1413554610' post='2579503'] No problem. [/quote] 😉

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1413551523' post='2579450'] And for the record, PMing a mod is the preferred method for raising these queries. :-) [/quote] Huh??? Sorry teacher.

Thanks for a the suggestions. I'm still mulling over options. I bought some krk kns 8400 headphones lately and they are awesome. I've got my eye on some m audio monitors. They are really cheap and get great reviews so they might be an idea.
