Thanks Ron. LOL...it's jazz babe! :)
Everything else had gone down in one take. There was that one run...and
I had been so "un anal" about the whole thing...i figured I'd leave it
there. Gee Ron! Now everyone knows! LMAO
Time to stick my heart on my sleeve I guess!
That's a tough one. I've got my favorite vocal
producer whom I've learned to trust. This person can
tell me that something sucks and we move right along
to the next risk without a hitch. And he encourages me
to really go for it. Another person that engineers my
vocals doesn't express any opinion and leaves me
guessing which frustrates me to no end.
A talented singer I know told me, "Ron, you white boys
don't take enough risks. Stop being afraid to sound
stupid." I think that brotha was dead on and I've
loosened up and written my best melodies and
performances since.
Instrumental only...Titled "Sunday Arvo"
Why....er...Cause it was
recorded on a Sunday arvo! I did this back in Ardour
Beta 28 I think in
about 3 hrs. Very simple and lots of rough edges.
Just gave it a quick listen. Very nice song. The rough
edges that bothered me are in the "lead" track and
specifically the run located at about 2:11.
Where are you picking up the noise? Maybe there's
a
noisey analog mixer in the chain. If yes, are all its
channels equally noisey. You can hear the noise while
you are playing but if you edit or filter the ending I
doubt many people will ever notice anything. I've used
the Rezound Arbitrary Fir filter on air conditioners.
Great job, I like it alot.
Actually I said I used a phantom power unit...I forgot I didi not have
that then....because I needed Phantom power I ran the mic thru a
Behringer 601. And my Guitar FX are noisy too. I new the noise was there
but figured only guys like you would pick it out! :)
Thanks for pos feedback.
