Hi David, I think you did well with this song. By listening to your track I got to think a lot about Synth V, Vocaloid and the other synthesized vocals out there. I think a part of the problem is that we are comparing with real un-modified human vocals. It will take years before we get there. I DO think synthesized modulated/modified vocals can be very useful for some kind of music where you only need a single line of lyrics or just chopped vocals. Think ambient, chill, funk, techno, house

Bagpipes
by eddie1261
@ Today at 04:43 PM
Did we not have a quick topic here recently about that annoying droning sound of bagpipes, sounding like a jar full of bumble bees on helium? Every time the Geico commercial runs where the couple says "We have a problem with a pipes making an awful noise" I laugh thinking about that thread. So far they had a Ratt problem with Ratt rehearsing in the basement, then it was "ants" with those annoying nosey aunts telling them what to do. Then clogging with the Irish dancers livi

Well 2015 is pretty old, the menu paths and options would be different than more current versions If you Hover the mouse over the Track icon, a popup should appear, in that popup, does the Events item show a number? If it is greater than zero, the track has data. As mentioned; erase the data and try again. Or, if comfortable simply 'Erase Track' (which should give you a new blank track). Or maybe try merging those tracks to a Wav file, and then importing the Wav file to a blank track, just a

Songwriting

I found out by accident that I don't need a completed song to start playing it -- rough lyrics, a BIAB backing track, and a stab at a melody (NCH Crescendo is good for this - even free version) is enough for a lead sheet. I say "by accident" because I was wasting time trying to fit the melody to the chord changes. Without being enough of a theorist to know how that is done, I was finding my efforts "needed work," to put it politely. I started laying out the staffs in Crescen

Hi Dan, Thanks for that. While I play around with the VST from time to time, my songwriting is mostly done in BIAB and so I'm much more familiar BIAB and not as familiar with the plugin. You've inspired me. For my next song, I'll write it entirely in BIAB's VST in Reaper just to force myself to cross whatever hurdles come up and learn a bit more about the VST. When I wanted to understand the depth of the latest new version of Realband recently, I worked entirely in RB for a couple of months. I

Hi Andy, when this happens again can you take a look at the Audio Edit window to see if it looks like the audio is cut off at the beginning? Most likely it'll be the drums that are cut off on the first beat of the count-in. If it is, can you freeze the song and email it to support@pgmusic.com? If not, it could be an audio driver thing. Try switching between WAS, MME, and/or ASIO in Options > Preferences > Audio.

Hi, Duane. Your songs are top of the line. Seriously good. Saying anything past that seems superfluous. But... I noticed that you have three songs on the front page today - two of which are new. Out of fairness to others on the forum, it's probably best to put stagger your songs, so it gives other people a chance to share the front page. I also noticed you've posted 15 different songs since you've joined. That's a lot of really good music. But... in all your posts, I've only seen two th

Hello Tom, Scott, David, Alan and Vic (and everyone else), At first I can tell you 'Emily' was very very pleased with this song. So I did something good there ;-) Thanks for you comments and compliments on this song. I appreciate it a lot. Originally Posted By: tommyadHans, there’s a lot to like in this one.

I experimented a bit today. -50db seems to be a good compromise. -60db is way too low and less reduction, till lik -40db doesn't do anything at all. So yeah, I can live with the -50db setting. Thanks for the workaround! Sandra

Hi Marty, What a nice, cool performance of this old song! You did a very good job, although you had to deal with that horrific meltdown with your Daw! The vocals are so good. Made for blues! And I like that outro very much; still mumbling while everyone else stops playing... It's all very cool! Hans
