A Moonies Band ?

Kirk: I was hoping you'd chime in on this.

OK, I'll go with that. I was under the understanding that it would be much like removing layers of stuff in case it wasn't needed. I didn't realize it was so dependent.

With that in mind, then yeah, Moses' idea hits the mark in a big way.

And here I thought I was gonna make it through today without learning something.

at mastering, judicious amounts of 'verb is applied
to the complete mix. if a track has efx applied prior,
then it's efx over efx, usually muddying the sound.

OK, so the more pristine the sound (especially for the bass) the easier it is for whomever's taking things and mashing them together into a coherent unit. I geddit now.

moses~ cool! i was referring to elric's suggestion to spaz
re: plugging a bass directly into a soundcard.
(highly not recommended!) LOL

Heh. Even with my extremely limited knowledge of the business (and the technical end of things), even *I* know that this isn't a Good Idea(TM).

OK. So now we've got the lineup. We've got our mixer in place, and the technical aspect of things are starting to line up.

Now who's going to write the tunes for this endeavor? I might be able to help, but I'd probably be better off helping those that can't read music get over that disadvantage.

Roger -Dot- Lee, learnin' things in spite of himself.
