Word. I've hated Phosphor Bronze strings on every guitar I have ever tried them on. I much prefer 80/20s. Plain old Martin brand mediums have been my favorite for feel and woody tone.

Pretty much what Chris said. Sometimes it takes a little creative experimenting but that's really going to be the basic formula. It's amazing what you can get away with sometimes. Also, sometimes you can close the gap (in PT anyways) by using the little parenthesis tool (not stretching) and find jus...

For me, it's different depending on the situation. If I am recording someone else singing, my role is sort of quality control. I try to get a whole performance and it's easy to do a couple of quick punches to get the overall vocal right. I'll do like 2 or 3 decent sounding tracks (if the singer can,...
