This was my point in bringing it up. I *am* that "guy" in post, or will be in a few months. I want a decent but aged sounding version for possible end-credits use, and will do the hard filtering for the radio scene.mojobone wrote:I'd try throwing the bandpass effect on before fixing anything else, cuz it might not matter-it's a pretty dramatic effect, and the pumping and breathing might help sell it, actually.
Low budget. Not no budget
Moj, my A/B vs. the Smokey tune indicates that there is a fair amount of high end fizz to the verb. Check it out on iTunes. Am I wrong?
I did make some of the mods suggested but couldn't upload tonite due to some household bandwidth clogs.
There's a fair amount of secrecy involved, when it comes to Motown productions, and lotsa folks that worked at Hitsville, USA are still pretty tight-lipped about it; I suspect they pushed the highs going into the reverb, back then, (or cut the lows coming back from it, more likely) but it compensated for a lot of signal loss we don't have in today's digital realm. If it has to be perfect, as opposed to good enough, Bob Ohlsson might could give you the scoop; he occasionally frequents (is that an oxymoron?) the GearSlutz 'board.
