[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1369072935' post='2084583'] I deliberately didn't vote for Simon's mix, because it was too good [/quote] That's a bit harsh, I hope you're joking!

OK, just voted, no idea if it's mine or not, I just kept comparing the mixes and chose my favorite. There were 3 that sounded great for me

I haven't had chance, moving house at the moment but will do my best to vote tonight. I hope I can tell which one mine is (and it sounds the best!) I'm deffinitely happy to handle the uploading any time, even though i'm very busy, I can do it from work, just set up a queue at the end of the day and upload over night while no-one's here.

I don't mind doing it one month?

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1368788715' post='2081469'] I think I can speak for everyone here by saying a massive CHEERS for sorting this out!! [/quote] absolutely! I'll check them out and vote over the weekend I hope mine made it and wasn't one of the loud ones - I did my best with the K Metering!

I bought a rack tuner from Andy, no problems at all, couldn't have gone better!

You're using the pre-amps in your desk, so ideally all you want from the interface is line inputs, no pre-amps. Unfortunately these tend to be more expensive. This looks perfect: http://www.thomann.de/gb/echo_audiofire_12.htm Not used their stuff before though so I can't recommend it. I do the same but with PCI cards which have loads of line inputs. I also have a Tascam USB audio interface which is great, but the first 8 inputs are all mic inputs with pre-amps so to do the same thing I'd have to make an insert loom with XLRs on one end. Not a big deal I suppose.

dirt is the most important for me. I've not actually found a pedal which would suit all my needs without coupling it with a blender and/or EQ but i'm sure there's one out there.

Just bought an SD-2 from Shep, couldn't have gone better!

Si I've submitted mine via email, let me know if you've not received it I think I compromised a bit. Basically I tried a few different sounds but then got utterly sick of the song. Why is it that a lot of country singers sound almost auto-tuned? Are they way more accurate with pitch than singers of other genres?

that's interesting, I used a sidechained gate for the first time ever on this. It works pretty well! I've only ever used sidechained compressors before.

I think the roger linn box in the effects for sale forum might be what you're after!?

It seems to me that there must have been a lot of processing on the way in to the box on this one, so I don't have much to do. Turn everything up and it sounds good! The snare did seem very compressed though, or maybe it's just badly tuned, I really don't like the sound of it and it's taken me ages of messing about to get a sound with a bit of "crack".

I have it on K-14C and the level meter on the right hand side isn't going above 0, is that right? If so I'm pretty much done, just need to reference it on some other systems.

Trust your ears Kev, if it sounds right, it is right. I would recommend you record some stuff yourself and listen back on a good system or headphones, just to double check.

If I was watching a band and they stopped mid-song to start again 'cos of a mistake, I'd think it was laughable. It would ruin the gig.

arrrgh, I need to get my act together. I've only done my standard tidying up so far (group tracks etc) no "mixing" done yet at all.

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' timestamp='1366182781' post='2049207'] What's the sub octave synthesiser all about? [/quote] Yeh I've never seen that pedal before?

Guitar, as it's what I write my songs on. I can program drums and bass. I'd have a lot less gigs though! I only seem to be able to get gigs playing drums these days :-/

Why do you want to change your set up? What are the limitations you're hitting?

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1365671626' post='2042539'] Fieldy from Korn... Not my type of music but bleugh anyway. [/quote] This, a million times over. I would have liked Korn, they have some great riffs, but FFS I can't listen to that band. What a complete idiot.

sweaty gary and the funky socks

I did 10 minutes on this last night. Very interesting way to record the kick drum and it sounds fantastic!
