Some play music to make money(good Luck).Some can’t stop writing lyrics. Some play for fame.Some for sex.(Sex,Drugs and ROCK AND ROLL!) Some because it’s fun.
Me I play because I love to play.I can play in front of people or all alone I play for me.
It’s not about money or lyrics with my I’m not a song writer but I am a composer.
I hear music in me head all the time so I try to play what’s in there.Music is my life but not my livelihood my music is free to download because it a gift.
And I hope some of you like some of it.
When I started the first studio I was in was a 3 track open reel tape machine and a 12/3/2 mixer fx were done with tape as for echo,plate(4’by 8’ 1 inch thick steel plate) or room build for reverb and a flanger well that was the engineers thumb on the flang of the tape reel and phaser that was wiring the preamps out of phase.A lot of knowledge about sound and feel was around back then.
Today with computers and Protools and other programs a lot of what makes great music is lost in the ability to edit out bad notes or add notes not recorded.Take someone off key a little and do pitch correction. I mean there comes a point when it’s no longer music but production.
I have made some concessions I use a hard disk recorder mainly because tape was getting hard to find.I use a Mac G4 with A Lot of NI Sound module software for Keyboards and I mixdown to it so I can Put my music on the web. But if I make a bad mistake I redo the track some little mistakes I may leave in I don’t use pitch correction on vocals I don’t use computer fx I still use rackmount units .I use an analog mixer. I hope my music is something some people like. I just never want to be on stage and not be able to reproduce what I have recorded.
There has been some things on SNL lately that drive that point home.
And there’s always the Milli Vinilli thing.
Making music is not about being in perfect pitch with no mistakes.It’s about love,hate,happiness,loneliness,pain,joy,God,the Devil, and all the things that make us human. Let’s not forget that when we are recording the next big hit.
Hey all
I bought this microphone on Ebay. For the money the best mic for vocal recording I have ever had.
And it’s just over $100.00.
They call these “ghost mics” due to the very “transparent” signal they produce.
It’s NEAR IMPOSSIBLE to find a better sounding mic at under $400.00!!
ACM company “Ghost Mic Jr” with a unique mounting bracket and the owner manual.
It requires 48 volt Phantom Power and (of course) XLR connection to your mixer.
It incorporates the unsurpassable Panasonic ECM capsule for incredible signal clarity.
Freq Response is 20 Hz to 16,000Hz.
The body of the mic is beautifully made of solid American Cherry wood
and has 6 coats of Minwax Polyurethane on it for a very glossy finish
..it’s gorgeous!
EXCELLENT FOR VOCALS AND ESPECIALLY ACOUSTIC GUITAR…UNBELIEVABLE WITH
TWO “GHOSTS” RECORDING ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTS IN STEREO!!!!!!!!!!!
If you have any questions leave a post.

Hi ALL For the second time in 4 years MySpace has lost my pages. They have not been able to find them and said I’d have to start over. Well I did that once already about a year ago. I’m not going to go through that again. I will just stay with OurStage .As a side note Revenation lost all my songs because I had them linked to MySpace I will reload them soon so you all can download my music. Sorry for this but I don’t control these things.
LOL Jeff
