Thanks Steve, I have a little better handle on it now. There are still a few things I don't understand. But I'm learning. I have noticed that the DAW doesn't use the system EQ at all. I mean it doesn't work when the DAW is loaded. So my question was kind of stupid in the first place. Dum Dum Da DUM! Thanks again Sir, EJB

No prob. I dig it. The song in question is "I Want You" (She's So Heavy) I can't wait to hear the final cut... "Don't Take The Sky" sounds great, kinda Dark just the way I like it. EJB

Hmmm Wow, Ummmm I didn't know whether to think The Beatles or Black Sabbath....until 1:08 and that is a nice section that really could be exploited and made Incredible. I really like this Song. "Mistakes' were made" maybe a few but it didn't really matter much and it's hard to tell given the way you presented it. Cool Stuff Man, EJB Interesting Title btw

"Stargazer" hmmm I remember when that album first came out. We were blown away by how different it was from Deep Purple and how Bad A$$ Dio was.. You're fortunate to have a Voice such that you can attempt those tunes. Yea "WE Rock"is a great Concert song and Cool for Guitar Players. South Park's greatest Dio Hits "Holy Diver' and "Man On Silver Mountain". any way, "Long Live Rock And Roll" Keep Sangin; EJB

Cool and Good 4 Ya, Not trying to influence your ummm set list but I like "Children Of The Grave" Heaven and Hell" and "We Rock" Better. LOL Maybe "Flight Of Icarus"? Either way, should be Fun, EJB

GrrrrrrrrrrRun to the Hills. Pretty ambitious Young Lady. I am a Maiden fan so I give you Kudos for doin that song. Were you coughing before or after sing that song? I Liked It Keep it Up, EJB

You mean there's another way to play the Bass? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm EJB

Tom your comments have been very helpful. I just got a new DAW upgrade and can't wait to dig in. I had suspicions that I should disable my sys. EQ (not just set it flat) I thought that the DAW worked independently from the sound card EQ I also need to use the studio monitors more.

The main reason I joined this site (believe me I searched for months) was to get feedback on my songwriting and production/recording. All to help me get better so I could realize my ultimate Goal....which is being successful (make money) as a songwriter/performer. There is so much great areas here to explore ideas and techniques, the resources are unbelievable. Pitching your Music is time consuming and does cost. But in the scheme of the Investment I have in Time, Money and Education in Songwriting and Recording, it is fairly cheap. The Days of submitting a Guitar/Piano Vocal Demo are almost gone but they still exist. I just think that with all of the Great songs and Music I have heard on this site I was amazed to find that so few of those actively try to Pitch it. Everyone has their own reason to write songs or Music. So whatever those reasons are I would be the first to say I wish you the best and hope you get all you want from your experience. I am here to Improve and I thank all of you for helping me achieve that Goal. EJB

Thanks Tom, Yes this helps a lot. Especially how you listen to trial mixes. I usually run the EQ flat but have had 2 HD crashes and when I finally got my system back up. Nothing is the way I had/remember it. I usually mix on headphones (I know) I have KRK monitors but rarely use em I think they have some compensation. I am going to look into the software that analyzes your room and helps you correct and adjust for inconsistency. Thanks again Sir, EJB

Looks like a Popularity contest? Is it mainly U.S. users? What are the criteria?

The Only Way to Fly

What I find quite surprising is the low number of Peeps who pitch their Music. I thought it would be much higher. EJB

What Flavor of Metal are you speaking of?

Hey folks I was just wondering if Y'all disabble the system sound enhancements. My system uses Realtek High Definition Audio and has an EQ which if I turn off while mixing it sounds HORRIBLE. I could Mix to make it sound good with it off but when I turn it back on? I just was wondering how Y'all deal with your system Sound Card. Thanks, EJB
