<p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;">These days I am mostly using my Marshall DSL 401 for guitar recording. Usually direct into my mixer from the line out on the back, but I mic it when possible.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: 13px;"></span></span></span></p><p><span" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn113/zefuldar/IMG_0033.jpg[/IMG]</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;">For Gotham Steel I primarily use my X for the Rhythm parts (and sometimes for Lead too). It has Dimarzio D-Activators in it.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
</span></p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Lately I have been using Pearl for lead, even on Gotham Steel tracks -- I just play at C (8th fret, 20th fret)</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Then I usually Mega-Wide Chorus the rhythm guitar part, and add some big-room reverb to the lead -- but I vary things a bit.</span></span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #6b6b6b; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Z </span></p>

<p><strong>"FRIENDS"<br /></strong></p><p><strong>This is a little song I created on my mobile studio (laptop, etc) while I was in Switzerland. I wrote it with the idea of a theme for a TV Sitcom, or Film Soundtrack. Some months after it was written, I decided it would be cool to add a voice, or another instrument to add another texture to the melody I had written, which is played by the Fretless Bass. So I decided to ask my good friend Alexis VAN EECKHOUT if he would like to add his sax to the melody. He agreed, and this is the new version with sax. I think he did a great job. Hope you enjoy it. </strong></p><p><strong>DICARLO; Composer, All instruments, guitar, keyboards, drum programming, etc, </strong></p><p><strong>Featuring Alexis VAN EECKHOUT on Sax.</strong></p><p><strong>Arranged, Mixed, Mastered, and Produced by DICARLO for DICARLO PRODUCTIONS at Online Mixing and Mastering.</strong></p><p><strong>Copyright(c)DICARLO</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>A BIG THANKS TO ALL THAT REVIEWED MY SONG "ETHNOLOGY". </strong></p><p><strong>I just realized it had so many reviews, I hadn´t read before. It´s actually one of the last complete songs I´ve written, and I wanted to enter it in the contest, but realized that I uploaded it in June, a month too early for the contest. 
So I´m now entering "FRIENDS", which I just uploaded today. 
</strong></p><p><strong>Anyway, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. </strong></p><p><br /><strong>All the best,</strong></p><p><strong>DICARLO<br /></strong></p>

The song is, of course, The Age of the Saskaboom. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The band is hoping to obtain some aerial footage of many different Sasktachewan cities, namely Saskatoon, Regina, Yorkton, Moose Jaw, Price Albret and Swift Current and essentially make the video into one big “Saskmash”, an unusual idea perhaps, but an exciting one as well</span></p>

<p> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="CENTER"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Das Maerchen vom „Schwarzkaeppchen“</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Es war einmal...</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">ein Schwarzkaeppchen, dass furchtbar unter der nicht einsetzenden Konjunktur der Wirtschaft im Reiche der Hexe „Bonzenschwein“ litt. So sehr es sich auch muehte, gelang es ihm nicht Sonne zu sehen. Auftraege fuer sein Cateringunternehmen bekam es zur Genuege, aber es wurde keine Rechnung bezahlt. Nur die Schergen der Hexe waren der Meinung, dass es sehr reich sei und bemassen dementsprechend seine Steuerschuld, und was viel schlimmer war, sie vergassen nicht diese mit haertesten Mitteln einzutreiben. Was willst du mit zwei Nieren? Du hast zu lange Haare. Blutspenden war auch dauernd angesagt.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">So begab es sich eines Tages, dass die Hexe bei Schwarzkaeppchen erschien und saeuselte: „Ich gebe dir eine Chance dein Leben zu verbessern. Zeige mir dein Koennen. Beliefere mich dem Erlesenstem was du hast und ich werde dich gross rausbringen. Du wirst dann mein monopolistischer Hoflieferant und kannst dich vor Auftraegen nicht retten. Ich werde dich beruehmt machen und du wirst in die Geschichte eingehen.“</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY">„<span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Wie waere es mit der Bezahlung der Aussenstaende? Das wuerde mir sehr helfen.“ sagte das Schwarzkaeppchen.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY">„<span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Darueber reden wir spaeter mein dummes Ding.“ antwortete die Hexe.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Also machte sich das Schwarzkaeppchen an die Arbeit. Es buk, es braute, es kochte und schaute, dass auch die Erzeugersteuer ordentlich bezahlt wurde. „Was soll ich denn mit dem unnuetzen Knochenmark“ sagte es sich.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Als es alles vorbereitet hatte, machte es sich ans Liefern. Unterwegs traf es den Wolf, schielte auf seinen Pelz und ueberlegte, wie viel Kohle es wohl damit machen koenne, zoegerte nicht lange, machte den Wolf besoffen und half ihm beim Ausziehen. Dann zog es freudestrahlend mit dem Pelz zum Schwarzmarkt.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Wurde von Oekofaschisten nach Haue-Aua-Land entfuehrt. Bekam vom lieben Foerster einen richtigen Hasen und eine An gezeigt. Erhielt zwecks Optimierung der Strafgeldbezahlung einen sicheren Arbeitsplatz im neu erbautem konzentriertem Privatgefaengnis und wurde durch Leistungsmaximierung nach ein paar Wochen vom Dies- ins Jenseits befoerdert. Sein vollstaendiges Recycling verhilft der Hexe „Bonzenschwein“ die zur Ausuebung der Regententaetigkeit gehoerende Voellerei standhaft zu verkraften und solange neue Schwarzkaeppchen kommen, lebt es in ihr bis heute.</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Und die Moral von der Geschicht</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: Vinque;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Schwarzkaeppchen heilt der Hexe Gicht</span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" align="JUSTIFY"> </p>
