Without knowing your set up, hard to say how you can do that again. But I will say to record a MONO track, then duplicate it (copy/paste) on another track, then very very slightly slide that track a nudge, is a long known trick.

Rob, not possible to do this any straight forward way. Ideally, it should be as simple as copying folder(s) of loops to something like s Midi loop folder. Note that I've mentioned folders, not files. This is simplest method to maintain / organise 3rd party stuff, as different companies tag content differently. It would be a mess to do this any other way. Even midi phrase giant Toontrack realized that, that is why their main library browsing is folder and not tag based.

Misha that is a great idea. I wonder if it is not as simple as import midi loops to the midi folder? Maybe not, i was able to drag a midi loop into the tracks view. I tried to drag a second loop in after it but it was confusing. I would imagine that all that is needed is 1. import midi loop feature 2. Drag midi loop feature that allows keeps track of where the last loop left off. 3. Add l=midi loops to loop folder. I could be wrong but vaguely remember the 3rd on from a few years back.

Yesterday somehow I managed to record a harmonica through a regular non-stereo microphone in a way that both "stereo" tracks had the same mono image on them. I don't know how that happened. But for some reason it sounded great. Seemed to add some kind of resonance or something. Anyway, a pairing of a mono track actually be a good thing? I know it's not really "stereo", but I think it sounded great. More importantly, how can I repeat whatever caused that to happen? All I did was plug the mic into the Focusrite Scarlett thing, and voila, I had some kind of double image. Tried to do it again but the mono channel just went to one side of the stereo track. Couldn't repeat the result.

Well, I tried the other things besides ASIO and I had a ton of latency, so it didn't seem like I could switch over without throwing the timing out.

I found the problem. Under options Midi/Input/Output ports it was set to HUI. I changed it to Midi and now everything works as expected. Thanks, Bob

Hey BD, Well maybe just maybe Kathy didn't like the way rock was going back then, such as the disco era, which I actually liked, at least some of it (BeeGees). But thanks for liking my music! AB

Hi, J&B. Reggae with a social message? What's this world coming to?  17 tracks?! Wowzers. I didn't notice, because it just sounds like good music to me. All the usual suspects sound great, and that includes the mix. Thanks for the mix info, it helps fuel my gear lust.

Hi, Janne. The progressions were a bit challenging to my lazy ears, but I love the sound: big chorus, chimey guitars, smacking drums in a huge space. Cool! Liam sounds great in the lower register, and the production is excellent.

Hi, Mario. The track seems to have come together well. ( See what I did there? ) I'd have put the drums more up front - it sounds like they're being played in another room or something. I would also would have liked the mix to place the instruments into more of a "space" which would help with the realism, but that's a minor nit. Nice melodies!

Reggae always cheers me up, and so does your song. Janice sounds like she's been singing Reggae her whole life, and Peter does the same on the guitar. Perfect and tasty fills! Super mix, sounds radio-ready. That's the good stuff ![[Linked Image]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) By the way, I just finished a (kinda) Reggae myself. Seems to be that time of year.

Hi Vic! Great choice of guitar tracks for your song. The first guitar that appears caught my attention straight away and carried me through the whole song. There is something good about the title sung three times in chorus - sounds very natural and catchy. I’m going back for a third helping! Andrew

Hi, Noel. Catchy and upbeat! As others have said, a winner. I really liked what you did with the countermelody line. You say this is outside your comfort zone, but it sounds excellent. Ninezero is a hard voice to work with, especially the way he's miked. I've only been able to use him in a single song - but he's a pretty good fit here.

Sounds old. 50s or so. Long before my time, but entertaining nonetheless. Beautifully arranged with a good selection of instruments. I'm not entirely sure if Danny was the best choice for the vocals, I think a singer with a deeper voice would be a better fit. However, when he sings a duet with the girls, it sounds fantastic. Nicely mixed and overall well produced. Enjoyed my listen

Hi, AB. As others have noted, it's a fun bit of pop. Not quite rock, but then, "Sultans of Swing" wasn't a swing tune, was it? I enjoyed listening.

Even though I don't entirely agree with the song's message (hey, I'm pretty sure there was plenty of rock on the radio in 1980), I agree that it's a damn catchy song. Toe-tapping goodness. Enjoyed
