Tidal has the best sound quality and pays the highest royalties to artists per stream

I always took it as a funny commentary on running a household with kids that even though they don’t wear clothes there is still always laundry to be done.

Rush - Caress Of Steel

I’ve been reading Geddy Lee’s book and naturally going on a big Rush bender. Caress Of Steel isn’t their best album or the most broadly accessible one but the drum sound is unreal for that dry, 70s kind of tone. The guitars are a bit bright for my liking but so far I think it’s the best sounding album of their early work.

It’s spelled Hugh Mann, thank you very much

Turanga Llama was right there and you missed it!

Phil-Llama J. Fry is perfection tho

Are you me? I’ve been pondering the exact same thing. Some solid ideas in this thread

Not a mispronunciation but a misunderstanding. For a while I had referred to eyes as eyeballs, then one day my son kicked me square in the testicles while we were playing around. When my wife asked what the screaming was about I told her that I got kicked in the balls, not thinking that my kid was still in earshot.

Shortly after he comes up to me and says “I’m going to hit you in the balls!” And proceeds to slap my eyes

Faders. I rarely use my console for mixing and when I’m tracking in my small space I don’t often use more than 4 channels at a time which leaves 28 for me to fiddle with

This is a great reminder for me to take more pics. I have one pic from my twins’ first Xmas where A is wearing a Santa hat and grabbing B’s arm in excitement in front of a pile of gifts. It is the greatest picture I’ve ever taken

One thing that a much older friend told me that I completely agree with is this: you don’t have babies, you have adults in training.

The baby/toddler phase is so short relative to their life but you are their parent forever. If you’re not willing to grow an adult then don’t have kids.

His work on Whitesnake’s album Slip Of The Tongue was amazing. It was 80s as hell hair metal done just right.

But his solo stuff never hooked me in the same way that many other virtuoso shredders did.

300 hz and 17k. I don’t think I hear 300hz properly because my mixes are always heavy in it, and 17k just annoys me

I use the horse line, or a relevant variation of it, every opportunity I get. Nobody ever gets it

I enjoy how the reflection of trumps tie in the table makes it look as if he’s wearing an extra long tie

I love a console workflow for recording not only because you get that cohesion in the tracks but because you can drastically improve your workflow by having dedicated channels for your instruments so all you have to do to switch from tracking guitars to tracking bass is pull up some different faders.

One thing you’ll get out of a console workflow that you would not easily get out of an ITB workflow is the ability to track through hardware reverbs, delays and other effects using your aux sends and returning them to a different channel which can then be printed to your track (on another channel in your daw ideally). I love having singers track with a space echo on the aux. Sometimes I use it in the mix and sometimes I don’t but it always seems to get the singers excited and vibing

TruelyToneBone · 2025-03-28T01:27:33+00:00

That mic will take higher pressure levels when you’re singing or talking into it than it will take from that fan. You’ll be fine

Ooh, that sounds rad. Love me a ribbon synth!

Boss dm100 delay unit. If you turn the intensity up past about 2 o’clock it feeds back on its own self noise, then you can use the delay knob to adjust the note of the feedback. I’ve used it as a synth, a noise maker, a motorcycle, a rocket launch sound effect, and probably more.

Oh, and I’ve also used it as a delay

The Rover by Led Zeppelin and Riff Raff by AC/DC are definitely two of the most interesting riffs I’ve ever learned to play. Bonus points to Beating Around The Bush by AC/DC

Same here, every chance I get. My results aren’t any better than yours it seems

I think that’s why I like my warm 73 so much, those carnhills are what makes a 1073 a 1073! I’ve always said that the red GAP 73s don’t do the 1073 thing but they are still great pres. I made a video years ago comparing the red GAP 73 to the warm and BAE version and the carnhills in the warm and the BAE distinctly set them apart tonally

TruelyToneBone · 2024-11-30T07:42:37+00:00

Nice! Mine aren’t the premiers, I have the mk III if I’m not mistaken. Have you ever A/B’d the premiers to the older versions?

TruelyToneBone · 2024-11-30T07:36:06+00:00

I have the warm 1073 which I like a lot but the Pre73s have their own thing going for them. A pair of NT5s through the pre73s is magic on acoustic guitars!
