The WAVE file was created on Friday, August 28, 2009, using Cakewalk’s SONAR Producer and no audio effects. Today, I opened the WAVE file’s project with SONAR Platinum and created an MP3 of the clean guitar (no effects). I probably had a capo set on the second fret.

The MP3 “To Catch an Escapee” was created using the Digital Audio Workstation Cakewalk’s SONAR PLATIMUM. I used Cakewalk’s Strum Session 2 and the guitar effects console TH3. The console had Noise Reduction, Overdrive, Chorus, Digital Delay, Spring Reverb, Blackface ’65 Synthetic Amplifier with a Two Speaker Cabinet. The amp setup was based on the 1965 Fender Twin Reverb Amp. Of course, I have a real reissue of a 1965 Fender Twin Reverb Amp, which was purchased in the period 2008 to 2010 or a little before (?).

Welcome to the Barre MP3

Saturday, August 2, 2025

Yesterday I wrote a new rhythm instrumental rock track entitled “Welcome to the Barre”. I use all barre chords. I utilized Cakewalk’s SONAR Platinum Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) with the Strum Session 2 software synthesizer. I also used the THS plugin. The effects used were a noise reducer, overdrive, chorus, digital delay, spring reverb, Blackface ’65 amplifier simulator with a two-speaker digital cabinet. The Blackface ’65 emulator is based on the 1965 Fender Twin Reverb Amp. I own a real ’65 reissue Fender Twin Reverb Amp.

First let us observe a moment of silence and/or prayer for the Allied and Axis men that died in Operation Overlord (D-Day) on June 6, 1944. Today is 81st Anniversary of that momentous conflict.

I have a new MP3 that was created using the “Arp Demon” Preset of Universal Audio’s PolyMAX Synthesizer. It is only 2 minutes and eight seconds in duration. The title of the MP3 is “Just out of Perdition”.
