Treble is a good thing!

I have been listening to some pretty interesting things here in the .org community thread, and it all sounds true to the particular artist. Nothin' wrong there, can't be mad at that. However, I have noticed that folks here are more interested in "the bottom" of the song - i.e., bass, drums, funky-ness, etc.

But what about the top?

Treble is a good thing.

The more a song cracks, matter of fact, the more a song will get to me. You can do this with live drum sounds just as much as with mechanized drum sounds, too, so don't be afraid to try with live drum sounds. Plus, it makes the music sound more authentic.

I mean this only in terms of helping the .org artist community to be as excellent as possible. Please remember that when you respond.

Ok I am thinkin about doing this. What about mastering the sound quality of the background noises by putting more treble in it? It will give it a more clean sound right? Kanye has been doing this recently and so has Timbaland.Their synths are sounding more clean cut than ever..The Dream's "Fast CAr" is another fine example. They way my Generator is set up..when I make beats and put made up keys in the background, it wont let me thin out the sound and make it clean. Plus my snares are taken @ 44khz samples from other songs..sometimes mixed with my own vocal samples or the ones that are already in the system.

U bring up a really good topic and we have spoken about it.
