Hi Jim

By all means we all want to improve the quality of our demos. And that is a part of what this forum is all about. Except nobody posts songs on The Recording thread and asks for this kind of help really. Maybe they should! All the songs you heard were on the mp3 forum. Seems most people are concerned with there songs not there demos.
They will ask for comments about the production sometimes and are all certainly open for suggestions.

It ain't rocket science but it aint easy either. To get good results takes a number of things and time being one of them that's what most people don't have.
Especially songwriters... what does verse lyrics have to do with 250khz or 4:1 ratio of compression.
Writing lyrics and music and then playing instrumnets and recording then mixing and mastering then promotion/shopping are all different skills.
Each one separately can occupy a lifetime. They have have certainly used up my life and spit it out

I agree with you 100% on this... and today especially if you wanna give your music any chance it has to be done well. The good old says are over. I wish they weren't
