Hi, Dan.

Post the link - I'm always interested in hearing what can be done.

As for hearing things "on ones", I suspect it has to do with decisions to use particular phrases over others. I probably selected bits that sounded like they led the phrase strongly, and the cumulative effect is that it's always hitting the downbeat.

I agree it sounds better at a slower tempo: August Exit (Slow Mix)

I brought the tempo down about 85% of what it was before. Initially I just changed the playback tempo, but decided that would probably cause too many artifacts, so I glued the tracks back together and stretched them out. I fixed a couple small glitches where I'd overlapped some stuff, as well as the "click" at the end of the drum track. I also fiddled with all the instrument levels, and changed the buss compressor.

The guitar is getting very close to having a "warble", but I'm not sure if it's a time stretch artifact, or something added by the player. There's probably some cumulative damage from having repeatedly stretched the samples.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
