Dave Gregory and Andy Partridge rule jointly. Regarding their top ten, I don't think "Stairway to Heaven" is Jimmy Page's best work, and I'm sorry, but I think "Free Bird" is a boring song and a boring solo. I would never disagree with anything Jimi Hendrix, though, and I was glad to see David Gilmour's "Comfortably Numb" in the top ten. My current favorite guitar solo, though, is the one Richard Harris does in "Twilight," the closing song on Sarahtonin's Wayward CD. OK, that was a blatant and shameless plug, but I'm totally serious about Richard's solo. :) Sarah www.sarahtonin.com/wayward.htm "Neil" <OIU@OIU.com> wrote in message news:44942a06$1@linux... > > 100 Greatest (Rock/Blues) Guitar Solos of all time? > > http://guitar.about.com/library/bl100greatest.htm > > I'll start things off... > > 1.)

I've scared a few folks with the same knack but that guy's about a year or two of 8-hour days practice ahead of me. He does have a controller goin' on the hat open/closed mod. Ask Rod, he'll tell the names of at least 3 guys who play easily more complex percussion with their damned heels and sides of their feet while working a real hi-hat and double kick pedals and playing mixed meter all night long while rotating multiple odd meters simultaneously from limb to limb AND chewing gum at a completely unrelated tempo.

I took a listen and while the kick is more tame, I seem to be a long way from the reference goal I'm going for. I'll have to see if my little brain can figure out how to get this sound. Drum sounds are pretty new to me so I need all the help I can get. Thanks, John "Kim" <hiddensounds@hotmail.com> wrote: > > >If you like it I'll send you the project file for it.

I'm trying to squish the life out of this using the EDS compressor which I don't think is up to the task. And since Auxs can't do VST's I'm pretty screwed on doing a New York Compression technique without bouncing. Try to squish this without pumping artifacts. I don't think it's possible with Paris EDS effects. http://tinyurl.com/rpu78 This is the sound I'm going for: http://tinyurl.com/gtacu Thanks, JohnI have stripped the desired goal reference file down to help in the comparison. Here it is: http://tinyurl.com/lkbkp Wavelab says the goal file is RMS Power left right max-12.31db -11.89 min -34.63 -34.57 average -19.94 -20.41 My file is left max -17.69 -17.09 min -90.32 -90.31 So what does all this mean?
