good or not good?

Part of the Movement has some great ideas going on but that reverb over-dominates and ruins it. For a similar effect try gating the reverb in Live to get a cut-off sound.

Nice progression at 2.40 odd, it goes a little off kilter at times though. One to keep working on.

EDIT: Decade has some Sisters of Mercy vibes going on. The guitar reminds me of Rotting Christ and Sentenced (when they went mellower). Yeah this is quite good. A little cluttered perhaps at times but you're on the right path.

Actually, EDIT EDIT.. Laidback and Dawn are SUPERB!!!

cool music! Soon i will start building a new site whith audio files like youtube

thanks downfader. good tips.

I've always been a major fan of reverb and willingly know I often go overboard. It's like an addiction even though it tends to muddy up the mix!

How would you gate the reverb? Won't that create too abrupt of a stop to the reverb tail? I'm thinking of bad Def Lepard snares here. Any tricks to acheive that smoothly?

Thanks,

Matt

Funnily enough it was the Def Leapard (sp?) snare affect I was thinking of Does work quite well at times though, you just adjust the release of the gate to suit the tail off, I find.

Failing that I find sending the reverb to a bus and compressing it works well. If you find these too muddy use the autofilters hipass or the EQ8 to cut off the lower frequencies of the reverb.
