Not a fan of superfluous guitar tracks.
I think that good mic choice and placement yields the best results.
That's the double edged sword of today's technology is that we can have virtually unlimited tracks to record but doesn't mean we should. 40 guitar tracks? Not necessary.
That being said, I think this session was done very well and gave many options for interpretation.
Bravo on the performance and song arrangement, very good.
I decided to mix this with entirely Toontracks EZ Mix 2 because I wanted to use my software and because this was a rather larger session and I wanted to see how nice a mix I could make only using EZ Mix 2.
I'm very pleased with the results given I used only EZ MIx 2.
There were times that it would have been much easier for me to just Eq and compress and process manually using my 3rd party plugins but I was sticking with the game plan of using only EZ Mix 2.
I may actually spend the time and do this session the right way and then compare versions.
Feedback is welcome.
P.S. I know pitch correction would be nice among other things but this is not an option with EZ Mix 2.
Cheers.
