From: Rick Paul on 18 Jun 2008 13:06 A few times in the past I've alluded to a recording I couldn't put on-line due to contractual issues. Well, the album, which is called "ALTARnative Music: Songs of Christian Faith" and is(on an indie label based out of LA called Goodnight Kiss Records, is finally available, and there's a 2-minute clip of each song up on the CD Baby page for the album (it's also in iTunes already -- http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=283104143&s=143441 or http://tinyurl.com/3rjhjn -- but they only give 30-second clips). The URL is: http://cdbaby.com/cd/goodnightkiss3/from/rickpaul My track is #10, "Onward, Christian Soldiers". It was recorded in SONAR V6 back around March or early April of last year. It was my first time using Chris Hein Guitars, before I figured out how to use all the various keyswitches, so what is on this is basically just playing it straight from the keyboard. I also used the Garritan Stradivari 2 and the then-new Garritan Gofriller Cello, as well as the DFH EZX from Toontrack, and Trilogy for bass. From memory, I think the other parts are probably B4 and Pro-53. For anyone who might be interested, I also recounted some of the history of this, and my interest in the project in the first place, in my latest blog at: http://blog.myspace.com/rickpaulmusic It's definitely taken awhile for this to get out there, but I have to say I was very pleased with the album overall, so it was worth the wait.

I just listened to the CD Baby version then the master version off the CD, it seems like the hi-hat is getting lost in the MP3 compression on the CD Baby sample if you play the individual song. Their individual song samples are lo-fi. If you play the broadband version for all songs at the top of the page, then just skip ahead to the 10th track with the "forward" button in your media player, you should hear that stuff. (I just checked on my crappy computer speakers, and it is night and day on the difference.) In any event, this is the mastered track from the record company post-manufacturing, so any flaws in it at this point aren't getting fixed. ;-) Rick -- ======================================= Rick Paul Closet Cowboy Music (ASCAP) Web: www.RickPaul.info MySpace: www.myspace.com/rickpaulmusic =======================================
