Re: [linux-audio-user] More Homemade Music --

This style of arranging/production frequently fails to come up with a final mix as there is always something to fix or add, basically because you didn't get it right the first time. ****************************************** HI Tim This must be the hardest learning curve for the home/demo production. Having all that technology there to play with, and suffering with 'I wonder' syndrome ('I wonder' if the vocals will sound better/deeper/fatter/etc! with this 'insert effect') I'm writing a song in protest of the war in Iraq called Hey Dude where's My Oil A simple enough Blues/rock number. I keep adding stuff to the vocals and guitar and then the next day I go back in Ardour to one of the earliest sets and it always sounds better!!! Daft as it may sound maybe we should set a time limit for some songs and force ourselves to work to this. I have done some stuff for film and the deadlines helps you produce more music faster. I'll be sending a link to this song soon, now there's a deadline!!!! cheers Bob
