TLSE IN THE STUDIO!

ChicoBluez's picture

Gotta love it! The TLSE is only limited by your imagination.

I just finished recording, mixing, and mastering the first 2 tunes on my current CD project and I'm all smiles when I hear the TLSE tones. Click the link and enjoy Crossroads and Tryn' 2 get Next 2 U.

Fluehue, Thanks for

Fluehue,

Thanks for asking!

All guitars are straight from the TLSE to Cubase SX3 (I upgraded from LE).

84% of tone is in your hands, the TLSE takes the rest of the credit.

you recorded all live drums

you recorded all live drums too ?
how does Cubase compare to Sonar if you've used it ?
did you use only the TLSE or did you have other equipment before the PC ?
do I ask too many questions ?
ok I'll shut up now !!!.

Monte, Crossroads's drums

Monte,

Crossroads's drums are real. Six drum mics mixed down to a stereo track (My USB interface can only do 2 tracks at a time). Not the ideal way to do drums. My live mixing experience paid off. I wanted to have my live drummer on the project.

Tonal, mixing, and timing concerns prompted me to purchase EZDrummer (used on Tryn' 2 Get Next 2 U). I did the programing (I have been programing drums for a while). I am happy with the EZDrummer. I think my drummers pisst.

Nothing after the TLSE. The compression you may hear is at the mastering stage.

Sonar is what I used in the 80's. I can't compare since I'm sure today's version is good. Cubase sits very well after the learning curve. There is still so much to learn.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the uplifting comments. After 39 years of playing guitar, recording, performing, along with the sacrafice of things that may have merited equal or more attention...your kind words make my continual struggle much easier.

Now! Let's see if I can post a patch or two.

Hi Chico As you mentioned

Hi Chico

As you mentioned earlier in this thread it's all down to your fingers to get the right tone.

For me the TonelabSE is just an easy way to fix a real good recording without using hours of adjusting mike's and stuff, and then it gives me a bunch of effects to play with.

I discovered that my playing exactly sound the same way no matter what patch i use, or if I play direct into my amp wink

I admire your guitar playing man, it's just a cool and understandable language you get out of it, patch or not I'm a fan !

/Take care

sv-erik, I find it funny

sv-erik,

I find it funny that the more you play for the love of it, the happier you are. Eventually, people take notice.

Thanks for the kind words....Chico
