Thank You! I'm glad it helped.

Aw, thanks Paul!

Thanks, KM! It's 4/4, very easy, and straight forward.

Yes, Nero you could definitely use that track. It could be lower in the mix or even split out with another track. Another thing I;ve done is to layer an acoustic track and then have that low in the mix to just provide texture and a percussive feeling. I'm hoping that the amp sounds great on this track, because that is one of the main problems with the original recording. The pickups were noisy and I dropped the ball on the miking.

Glad it helped!

Thank you very much for the kind words!!! It really gives me confidence.

@@ChadEtchison your welcome i understand the feed back is nice especially good feed back i like the rythm and the vocals if they were equalized im sure it would sound good i was working on a new one i seemed to be on a role then i caught a cold so i coudnt sing, im over it now so i will get back to it, i have to work hard to get a voice at all, anyway i understand my friend.

@@MediocreOriginals Yes, it's such a struggle that we all have to overcome. The encouragement helps fuel the fire needed to make the song as good as it can be. The recording process is long and tenuous, so people giving encouragement are helpful and selfless. Once you get off your cold, you'll get back on the stick and ride again. There is a season for everything-- even being sick. it's a good way to gather your thoughts and mental energy for the projects ahead. Thanks again for taking the tie to comment and comment back, it really fuels my energy to interact with other musicians.

Thank you, KM! Yes, no over thinking on this one!!!

Thank you, KM! Back in the saddle again!

haha! It's very true!

Haha, those are "square" toms that are featured in the Slingerland Magnum kit. This one is from 1985. The snare is a '70 COB Gene Krupa, also a Slingerland. They are set-up goofy because I wasn't using them on this track.

Woah! That sounds really cool!

@@ChadEtchison They end up sounding like the MAY internal miking system, akin to Alex's sound on the live album 'Right Here, Right Now'........And the mics are over 24 years old.......hard to find Radio Shack models. They have a certain frequency response that current lapels do not have. I just play a 4 piece, so I had enough mics to fit the bill. The bass drum hits very hard in the mix.

@@drummer4hire12 Oh man, I think I get what you're going for. The immediate fast attack of one of the gods: AVH. His tone is so recognizable, maybe more than any other big time, famous drummer. I'm assuming the RS mics capture attack, and stick dynamics really well. There are so many magical RS products. I really lament their closing. I once hit up the RS down the street on a regular basis to get carbon comp resistors and silver sold. That solder was so good and really cheap! I think I appreciate Alex's drumming more now that I did back in the 80's, even though I loved the band. I now realize what his musical connection with his brother really meant for their music.

Haha! Thanks! It's a an old Flash Gordon record. Thanks for commenting!.

You have to unlock it by turning the little allen screw, and then you adjust. After adjustment, you tighten back up. Good luck!

So true, regsymes! He was the first teenager and as you have stated, he opened up the lane for expression and influenced everything to come afterwards. I wonder what he would have thought of all he wrought? Thank you or watching and commenting.

Exactly! You're support means the WORLD!

Thank you very much, John! I'm excited to move on!!!

I'm glad ot have this recorded. I will have fresh ears and know where to place everything after some time. This one got annoying. Whenever I try something ambitious, it hurts a lot more, then when I do something more familiar. This feels like uncharted territory for me. I wouldn't have made it without your support!

Inspired by your advice! I finally get the quack. I think I needed to hear it in the context of one of my tunes, because I always love it in other material, but it always sounded weird when I treid. It really helps the part stand out. The Strat is like a built in effects machine!

Thank you, fiddlinero! Your positive commentary on this really help get me through!!

This may be too obvious, but have you tried stereo linking the two tracks in PAN/EQ?

@@ChadEtchison yes I did it via PAN / EQ)))

@@user-rk2xj8gr3h What a relief! Happy Day!!!

@@ChadEtchison thanks, i did it already and everething is alright. And the next issue, do you know how to control the quolity of frequences on the output? Thanks!

@@user-rk2xj8gr3h I use Audacity after I record, just to do a high pass, amplification, and/or whatever you would want to do. It's free!

This has been a tough one, KM. I have redone it several times since this vid. It sounds pretty good and I feel like I can move on to a new one! I hope your R&R time was good.

Thank you for taking the time to watch. You are the kind of guy that helps build people up, just like Albiz.

I love it when that happens! Thank you for commenting, Paul!!!

Wow, that is super weird. Thanks for sharing; the phantom power has been underwhelming for me. It's the only real downside!

Aw, thanks Bill! I hope everything is going well for you! I've missed your presence.

Yes, I agree! Is it out of production now? That's a drag. it doesn't seem like they have managed to replace it with a better unit.

That makes me glad I have two of them . I have had a ton of recorders over time, like 3 VS2480's, 1680's 880's. I love everything about the R24. The process of capturing an idea is untouchable.....the fastest start up and shutdown ever. No goofy button combos to reach a menu etc etc. pure gold!!!

@@drummer4hire12 Yes! I'm glad others feel that same way about it. The machine gets it right -- especially at the price point and all of those type of factors.

@@ChadEtchison Yes, there are many different possibilities there. A masterpiece.

@@user-rk2xj8gr3h It reminds me of a four-track cassette recorder with better fidelity and a complete all in one system.

I feel like this isn't a good time to die on the hill of axiology.

It was a great dream -- to get to record with Steve Albini. I'm really sad that you and your band won't get the chance.

@@ChadEtchison Thanks man - and thanks for sharing your experiences with him. At least there's loads of music and all kinds of wise interviews to dig into and learn from for a long time.

@@wychwoodmusic Yes, that is very true. He left a rich legacy behind, that someone can really learn from. It's a tragic loss for all of us.

There is no substitue. There really is no one quite like him. He really stood apart, due to his ethical character when dealing with bands. Thank you for commenting.

Check it out, Bruce: www.guitars.greenbuddha.de/other_instruments/ovation/Breadwinner.pdf

Thanks so much. That really helps me out.

@@colimabirder I'm glad it helped, it has really been tough losing him.

Thank you, RR. He was a one of a kind talent and human being.

He was a GREAT musician. Much like Johnny Ramone, he had one of the great right hands of rock.

Forgot to mention his excellent lyric writing.

Yes! Thank you, dpclerk09!

Yea! i don't think there will be anyone else that can do what he did. Thank you!

It's saving me right now!

Yes!

It truly is -- GIBKEL, handmade excellence, what a great description! That In Utero recording and remix is divine. Salut, friend!

Yes, as a Chicagoan, you should be proud. he loved that city and it had a profound effect on him. He detested most other 'high-pressure' cities. I remember him referring to them in that way. I asked him about Londo and his reply was, "Just another high-pressure city." Thanks, 1928!

I totally agree with you, Kevin -- and I appreciate you commenting. It's cathartic for us to share and feel the loss. I wish his attitude was more pervasive in the biz!

Probably

@@CornpopWasaBadDude444 sadly many people

🙄 you are not alluding to the dumb conspiracy shit I think you are are you?

🙄 you are not alluding to the dumb conspiracy shit I think you are are you?

Yes, Chuck, i totally agree. It's very rare that you can spot the engineer on any of the records that he recorded by the drum sound alone. He was also a master at cutting tape. Watching him do it was really impressive.

Aw, thanks Holly! It's such a drag that he's not around, doing his thing.

Thank you, Ian, first for watching, and second for contributing. A big part of what made Steve special was his outreach to other artists by encouraging and advising. It was a completely different way of going about things. I hope to carry on a small part of that tradition.

@ChadEtchison You definitely are and have been carrying that spirit along. I can tell you that you've inspired me (and I'm sure many others) to keep going and learning and that great things are still possible. Keep on keepin' on. 🤘

@@ianmargolycz Yes! Great things are possible!!!

Thank you, Robert. It's all we've got now.

@@ChadEtchison yur most welcome bro,

@@ChadEtchison a question. if i may ask how much differance in opperation from a zoom r 8 as opposed to the larger one u use? i'm a familliar with the anolog recording but this is a new digital world for me

Thank you, John! RTB was a one of a kind!

Thank you, fiddlinero! I forgot The Cars -- one of my all-time favorites. Candy-O!

That's it, Andy, that's the part that needs help. The next vid has those harmonies, I think it works -- i hope!!!

Thanks again, KM! It is a lot of fine tuning -- that's what makes it take so long

Good to know, thank you, Kevin!
