Looking for a guitar VSTi advice

Hello folks! Through some months I wonder about achieving good sounding guitar in a track with VSTi software. Sometimes I want to do a nice summery trance tune or chillout and while I'm looking for a guitar there's nothing what's sounds good for me. Omnisphere guitars are too overprocessed. Looking ...

Re: Im a noob and i need some advice.

Hmm, I think the best way to do this is to record everything with "Resampling" option on one of the audio tracks. You know what I mean?

Re: My latest mixing problem - peak at -6db.

In the past I used to be pretty adament that people not touch the master fader, as lowering it could lead to a loss in resolution. Or so I thought. The maths involved are beyond me (I hate math), but the loss in resolution from lowering the master fader I've been told is so damn small that's it's n...

Re: My latest mixing problem - peak at -6db.

Again, mastering is a dark and arcane art. I always recommend people bringing their mixes to experienced mastering engineers if they want to take it seriously. They just have magic ears that 99.99% of all people involved in music do not have. I mean, definitely give it a shot if you want. But, for ...

Re: CPU selection for computer buld.

In September 2011 I have same problem, but I chose AMD Phenom X2 BE and it works lovely. And this one can be unlocked to X4 :) Despite that I advise you to read some reviews on tech pages.

Re: My latest mixing problem - peak at -6db.

Hey man, yeah you don't want EVERY TRACK to peak at -6db. Just the MASTER track. You mix each track separately until it sounds pretty good (DON'T TOUCH THAT MASTER TRACK FADER YET!). Use each track's faders to bring up or down the volume, you don't want these to peak or clip into the red, above 0db...

My latest mixing problem - peak at -6db.

Hi guys! I've been recently working on a trance remix and I came across with few mixing problems(i'm not enough experienced). I've read that it is good to have a track peaking about -6db after mixing down part. That helps mastering. But I've been trying hard to do it and I managed to have about -5db...

How to? Means improving skills in generating sounds :)

Hello sound designers. A young producer need some help. I always wonder how to do more unusual sounds like this: http://youtu.be/q2xYDh-jzBA?t=4m36s . This amazing chillin' out synth. I know how to do usual stuff like saw leads, big pads, driving basses, but I want to improve my skills with more bea...

Track doesn't sound how I want - mastering/mixing problem

Hi guys. I worked whole weekend on my track, from scratch and I like every one second, but I can't fix the problem with final master. When I'm listening to on studio speakers (KRK Rokit 5) mix sounds OK, but when I copied it on Walkman and listened to on AKG K271 headphones it is: too quiet and the ...
