Might as well get the most out of your speaker builds - no sense building great speakers and judging them by poor quality audio sources . . .

[Steve Lee]

Glad to hear this, djg - I'll have more to add as I improve my technique and drumming skills. (I appreciate the feedback as well - gives me a reason to keep posting the effort here).

[djg]

Your mixes inspired me to finally get an online high fi music source. I may be old but I could hear the quality difference over free Pandora and youtube.

Awesome, I'm nearly positive I know of those guys from back then. I can almost picture their avatars on the forum. Weird world.

[Steve Lee]

VERY probably, wogg - we used to use Cakewalk in the early days . . .

[wogg]

I feel like I recognize those names. I don't suppose you fellas were on the Cakewalk forums years ago?

I'm a Fool for You --> Remixed from the original takes on the Samba speakers . . .

This is a total remix of some 5+ year old work that was roughly done and recently dragged out of archives by me to learn how to mix, EQ, add Compression and reshape existing work into something that might be enjoyable on your audio system.

The song was written by my life long friends (Danno and Cassie) and a contributing friend (Matt – 6 String Bass Player) came down and played walking Bass upon it over some drinks and then the effort sat and languished all this time.

It is simple and jazzy and Cassie has a voice that inspires me along with the syncopation/rhythm of the lyrics (Danno) which create an enormous playground of possibilities for contribution by other musicians.

Hope it sounds as good for you there as it does here and how good it felt to lay that down for you, man.
BTW - The source audio track is an .MP3 while the drums are a .WAV file mixed together with compression added to bring the levels up - this is why the source audio .MP3 [Bass] sounds distorted - it isn't the drum track - .MP3's suck.

[Steve Lee]

Well? - How does the .WAV sound?

[djg]

I had the program all along.

[djg]

Sounds good on my SR71s. I never heard this on anything but a car radio "til now.

Not sure I understand the question, djg.

For .WAV creation? -OR- playback of .WAV -OR- something else?
