After the mid section break I lowered volume on vox to see if it blends in better. Should I add any more reverb to vox to get them to blend in more. Lower volume on vox to get them to blend in more?? My buddy did the guitar work. Should I increase volume of his backing track (which includes solo etc) or should he increase volume of his guitar in mix. Sorry many questions for a Tuesday, I have been trying to mix this all night:confused: I dig it -- you really have the Floyd sound nailed. Your friend's guitar part is awesome and you should definitely turn up the solo a little. The rhythm guitars sound washed out. And I'd turn the vocals down a bit, they stick out too much. Other than that, you have any tips for ME on getting that Floyd sound? What's that sound at the very beginning of the track? Sounds exactly like that song "Obscured By Clouds."

I'm way new to this too. I just put together my first-ever song on my roommate's Mac using Garage Band. I bought an M-box "Audio Buddy" (preamp) and mic'd my tube amp. Played my guitar riff twice -- one panned into each channel. Used some cheesy drum loop, and tried to play bass on my SG guitar through a my guitar amp (ha). Added a couple cheesy effects. Anyway the result sounds pretty retarded but it was fun as hell to put it together. I'll post/email it when I get a chance. By the way this thread is amazing: http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=459652&highlight=home+recording Dan

hey John Denver .. I checked out your songs. I think they're pretty kick-ass.
