Autumn Nights (remix)

http://www.brianraynormusic.com/samples/AN3.mp3

A friend gave me an Epiphone Les Paul to evaluate so I thought I would pair it with a track I made earlier in the year.

Recording chain is: Guitar - Behringer Xenyx mixer - Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB interface - Reaper DAW.
The effects: Reverb (mixer); Convolution Amp/Cab modeler Vox AC30, Vocal finaliser (Reaper DAW).
This is the first time I have used Voc Fin on an instrument. Normally I use it only for vocals but I have discovered that it can add depth, resonance and oomph to almost any sound that is otherwise a bit on the thin side.

BIAB Style: LUCENT.STY (85bpm)

Drums - Shannon Forrest
Acoustic Bass - Byron House (reverb 0)
Acoustic Piano - Miles Black (reverb 60)
Acoustic Rhythm Guitar - Brent Mason (reverb 65)
Electric Solo Guitar - Brent Mason (reverb 67)
Acoustic Fingerpick Guitar - Jason Roller (reverb 40)
Vocal oohs - David Wise & Shelly Justice (reverb 75)

Sweet sounds, Brian. An excellent example of "in the right hands." Yyou make the Epiphone sing.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Brian
Very laid back tune. I liked that a lot.
For recording I use a Vox AC30 sim. It does the the job well and it is so much lighter than the real thing (which I also have BTW.lol)
Nice sound fron the LP. Have you considered a compressor / sustainer in the line? Doesnt have to be a Boss, there a good cheapies out there to see if you like what they do.
Cheers
ian

Hi sixchannel, Thanks for the review.

Since posting that link, I have been messing around with some effect pedals (Swamp Super Chorus, Marshall Regenerator, and a BBE Green Screamer), but none so far have produced the sounds I'm looking for. I think my next step will be a modelling amp, one that has about 20-30 different cabinets and multiple effects built-in.

Cheers,

Brian

Sounds nice and a pleasant laid back tune.

Some good software modellers out there - and also some good hardware ones. Good luck choosing.

Very nice, reminded me somewhat of Stranger on the Shore by Acker Bilk. Good mellow music.

It was Acker Bilk who inspired me to take up the clarinet in '66. Didn't take me long to realise I was never going to make the instrument sound like he did. Switched to guitar in '67.

WOW, you can make that LP talk! What a sweet sound, loved it.
You have some awesome chops.
Outstanding mix.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

To Marty, Ian, Peter, Greg, Tunemonger, Janice & Bud, Scott C, MarioD, and Graham,

Thanks to you all for listening to the track and for the positive feedback. It's very encouraging, especially when there have been
no concerts and applause is but a dim memory!

On a positive note, I'm getting bookings again for June and July -- very sparse, but it's a move in the right direction.

Stay safe all.

Brian.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
