Hey Chumpy, I have only the vaguest memory of writing that review and not which song it was for; but I'm sure that you deserved it that one time :) It wasn't our most cringe-worthy work, but perhaps among our most. Still, I'd be remiss if I didn't remind you that as of this writing we have 14x more...

Re: Why/How you should double tracks rather than make a copy and pan.

I'm very confused... why did you say "somewhat?" Yeah, it's painful. I recently discovered there are multiple (depending on how much you want to spend) products from a company called Synchro Arts that automate my tedious manual process of aligning and tuning duplicate vocal tracks to a gu...

Re: Why/How you should double tracks rather than make a copy and pan.

There is some good advice in this thread! Like Ken, I prefer to stereo pan separate takes of the same performance. To my ears it's always worth the extra effort and sounds better than the Haas effect. My somewhat labor intensive process for vocals is as follows: I record 10 takes of me singing a par...

Re: Morphine (the band)

In the early 90s I shared a house with a guy from Boston, and he made it a point to school us on his favorite music from Boston. He turned us on to both his "Treat Her Right" and "Mission of Burma" records, which was great. After that I picked up Morhpine's "Good" and h...

Re: Focusrite Scarlett audio interfaces

Initially, I was not sold on Universal Audio interfaces. I was angry about being potentially locked into their plugin ecosystem, and was highly dubious that their custom silicon DSP had any advantages over cheap general purpose commodity CPUs. I still feel this way, but UAD interfaces do have some s...
