Alkaline Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Incidentally, I was moaning in Pet Hates about the poor quality of the myspace player.Well, you can embed the Reverbnation player onto your myspace page and play the tunes at decent quality that way, check it out:Dusty Valentino on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music DownloadsFeel free to add me as a friend too!Bigsby, what's your association with Emma Forman and the obsession with Dumfries?

scottyboy Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Pretty impressive, especially Dead on the Road. Did raise an eyebrow at the accent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Oh, and since Trigger said it, I thought it might have just been me, but I think the vocals are a little too high in the mix as well.Agreed, it seems to sound OK on headphones but jumps way out on computer speakers, will re-mix for the album.

Guest droid Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Well recorded:up:,when you remix the vocals you might want to look at how the bass is sitting in the mix,it lacks definition! IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMOYeah, although it does depend heavily on what you are listening on. Computer speakers have really crappy bass for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted May 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 B&W's...!Ha, well fair doos. On both tracks I was playing my Japanese Squier Precision which has always served me well but I would say is a bit trebly fro my current tastes. As a result on Matty's Blues I had the tone rolled off half way and DOTR rolled right off. On DOTR in particular because it didn't have drums I wanted the bass to be more for "atmosphere" rather than a particularly distinct bass line.
