$10 per hour?!? That is cheaper then the usual $20/hour. So why do you saturate the recordings (things sound distorted, IMO the recording isn't clean enough)?!? - Wed, 17 May 2006 3:37pm Edited: Wed, 17 May 2006 3:39pm

Those are older recordings except for the very first song on the list. I am asking for a cheap price right now....because i am injured and unable to work at the moment.....so i am at home with alot of time. If i can make a few extra $$ to help pay for some of my gear that would be a bonus!!

As far as saturating things in the recording....i am simply trying out various things i have a few Cleaner recordings if you would like to hear them.....I just cant post them because they are not my songs and my performances.

cheers!

Yes, I hear ya. Not being able to work sure gives ya time to work on recordings. :) Perhaps you can re-clean those recordings then put them up instead. I don't think I can make them sound cleaner. You want to offer decent examples to people, right?!? - Wed, 17 May 2006 7:09pm Edited: Thu, 18 May 2006 10:42am

Well so far you are the onlyone complaining.....I've received several Emails inquiring.....so they must be good enough samples!!

And I am sure you are an expert in the field.....so I dont want to step on anyones toes!!

I liked I said before, these are samples of what I have done in the past.....everyone is entitled to their own opinion....and I respect that....I think they sound not bad for a budget studio thus that is why i am asking for a budget rate.....

Cheers!

Surprisingly, decent recordings can be made from low budget hardware (aka cheap). You just gotta tweak with the controls!!! :) - Sat, 20 May 2006 2:13am

I am looking for a pro studio that uses cubase. If you know if I could lay drum tracks on pro tools, then import them to my cubase program I would be interested. - Thu, 29 Jun 2006 6:57pm
