Re: Getting a good (guitar) sound across multiple listening devices. Advice?
IMHO getting a good amped electric guitar sound recorded is a solved-problem, regardless of whether you're using free or proprietary software, since the advent of impulse response (IR) convolvers, guitar speaker cabinet IRs and neural amp modellers. Even with the previous generation of amp modellers...

Re: Getting a good (guitar) sound across multiple listening devices. Advice?
Firstly, there is no one "right" guitar sound (or sound of any other instrument). It all amounts to what is appropriate for the song, its genre, and the mix and the feel you're going for. For example, if you're doing anything like rock, punk or metal, all rhythm guitar parts are often doub...

Re: Libre Music Challenge #25: Christmas Windows
Heyall, late feedback for the December submissions: Amberdrake - Metal of the Bells Has a cool early-Metallica thing going. I like the intro with the cymbals and the bass. But as soon as guitars come in the bass should provide the low end, which is totally missing here. Very solid composition but ul...

Re: Libre Music Challenge #25: Christmas Windows
Here's my submission for the December 2023 LMC. I rolled last November's and this months challenge into one, since I used only real instruments, my voice and a hardware FM synth and Airwindows plugins. I had this ready on Christmas already, but I wanted to work on it some more afterwards, but I didn...

As an alternative to Neural Amp Modeler there's also AIDA-X: https://github.com/AidaDSP/AIDA-X You can train models for AIDA-X with this repo: https://github.com/AidaDSP/Automated-GuitarAmpModelling The link to the cloud hosted training Jupyter notebook given in the AIDA-X readme currently doesn't w...

Re: Rockman guitar sound with FLOSS?
Actually, I found some models for Neural Amp Modeler on Tonehunt: https://tonehunt.org/search-results?search=rockman The "4 Rockman Channels" package also has the two clean channels. They don't include the chorus or echo effect, but I can achieve them with my own chorus and delay plugins: ...

Rockman guitar sound with FLOSS?
Has anyone tried to get those classic eighties Rockman tones using FLOSS? I'm talking the clean tone like on Def Leppard's "Hysteria" or the distortion rhythm tone like on "Pour Some Sugar On Me" or the lead tone on Boston's hits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2gSo2Vw-gE (Rock...

Re: Libre Music Challenge #25: Christmas Windows
Similar situation here. I have recorded an "unplugged" version of my song (vocals and ukulele) already. I'm hoping to finish it tomorrow by adding (literally) some bells and whistles, so I can send it to friends as a Christmas greeting and post it in the chat. Then I can still polish it up...

Black Snow City - Million Pieces
Just listened to your submission. I like it very much.
I think a subtle string arrangement in the background could make it even better.

Sure, it would be possible, but I like the 16th beat as it is It gives the song a bit of a feeling of urgency.

Here are my comments for the submissions of this round. I'm going to try to concentrate my comments not so much on aspects of composition and production this time, but rather on how I feel about the tracks. But don't hold me to that.
