The result is a clear and reliable representation of your mix. Regardless of the acoustical issues in your studio, what you are recording, mixing or mastering becomes immediately clear and reliable and your studio sound will improve forever.

Check out "my" new synth…
…maybe it needs some software updates before I can use it or run it as a MIDI with my Powerbook, hehe.
Well whatever the case it is an awesome piece of equipement dated somewhere around 1850 and was apparently used by the Swedish king (Karl XVth) and it can be found at Bäckaskog’s Castle in the southern parts of Sweden, where I spent an annual event with my feelow colleagues at TAT.
Cheers

Underwires song I would resemble with a lo-fi electro version of Beck, and I must say I like it a lot. It is a very slick production with very cool metallic sounds that dominates this song, paired with minimal beats. The only thing that disturbes me a little (listening very carefully) to the build up of the song is that there are very nice bass pads or similar that tends to go too much back in the production – you can barely hear them and they are definately worth listening to. I would suggest using a mastering suite to see if it is possible to reveal more of those bass bads in the final mix.
OK so that was music wise – very good work and I sure want to here more of this, but (and there is almost always a but) and that goes for the song. I like the Beck’ish voice you have but I think (at least in this song) that you sound too much like you’re all in pain, and surely Beck does that too, but I would prefer trying to go a bit more on high tones than the low ones especially in the refrain/chorus section, perhaps also add some effects to it; i.e. reverb or similar, but that’s me and my subjective point of view.
Conclusion, a positive experience although I would work more on the vocals going forward, which unfortunately is the toughest part (and I can only speak for myself here – I’ve had the same problem for years, hehe

NI Reaktor Nostalgia
Have you forgotten that you actually can play games on Reaktor, at least I had 
REAKTOR Kung Fu Game: “Fist of the dragon”
|
“Fist of the dragon” by programchild is not a typical REAKTOR instrument, but the first kung fu game for REAKTOR. After loading into REAKTOR 4 or REAKTOR SESSION, you can fight against the computer, a friend, or just watch how the two REAKTOR heroes are fighting each other.
Use the keyboard (c1-d2 = Player 1 / c3-d4 = Player 2) or computer keyboard to control your fighting! And don’t forget to switch your speakers on for a total kung fu sound experience.
This ensemble demonstrates the high potential of the XY module, and how one can combine the XY panel and meter with the multi picture module to create kung fu fighters.
Instrument and design by programchild. Unit works with 44.1 kHz only!

PaulDavidKearvell makes instrumental lo-fi electro lounge music. And I believe it is important to judge it based on this because (and don´t take this wrong way) it is a montone music experience.
I believe Paul does his job quite well and the mastering feels pretty OK, however I do get a bit disturbed by the all too monotone drums that does not change one bit across the entire song and that starts to irritate me when I have passed 50% of the song and all the delicate effects put in cannot cover that.
I would probably also experiement with more interesting pads that would perhaps enrich the overall impressions or alternatively some delicate samples that just would flavor the background somewhat.
However, all in all I like how Paul has skillfully chosen sounds that fit together nicely and from a production perspective their is not much to complain about.
Just a quick note there are lots of nice songs on Paul’s homepage that are of good quality, so make sure to listen to him there as well before taking this one tune as the truth of all his music production
Looking forward to your next track

Enjoy!!!!Check out Kite…
Swedish electropop/new wave duo Kite from the southern parts of Sweden has just signed with Progress Productions. Their first release will be an EP with four songs.
About
The story of Kite started when Christian Berg (Yvonne, Strip Music) asked
Nicklas Stenemo (The Mo, Melody Club) to sing on one of Christian’s
instrumental songs. The day after the demo version of ”My girl and I” was
finished. They started to make songs at a daily basis in Nicklas’ studio where
Christian’s love for monotone synth melted together with Nicklas’ pophits.
One day Nicklas sold his Fender guitar and the band Kite was born.
Spring Reverb
Spring Reverb is an authentic spring reverb recreation that will add vintage character and grit to any audio track. It also includes novel features such as a fully automatable Shake control that will shake the virtual strings around for those thunderous spring effects, and a Tension control that tightens or loosens the springs to cover a wide range of spring reverb sounds. More info here >>
Features
- Shake control that shakes the springs around
- Tension control to shape the spring character and reverb length
- Number of spring pairs continuously adjustable from 1 to 3
- Tube driver simulation with Bass and Treble in the reverb section
- Can be used both as a send and an insert effect
- Very CPU friendly
Controls
Springs
|
|
Control the number of springs in use. There are three sets of springs in the reverb unit and you can choose how many of the sets you would like to use. Set the control to ONE for a more pronounced springy sound and to THREE for a smoother sound.
Since we don’t want you to smack your computer to get that thunderous springs-being-shaken sound, Spring Reverb features a slider that can be used to accomplish the same thing safely.
Tunes up or down the tension of all three springs. Adjusting the Tension parameter will change the sound of the strings from slow and smooth (left) to quick and harsh (right).
Authentic tube simulation using the same technology as the Amp Room products on the wet signal.Spring Reverb is only available for native VST/AU/RTAS hosts on Mac and Windows.
