    I think I understand gain staging now

    The hiss on "Whatever it Takes" should be a lot less than previous recordings. Now I just need to fix the vox a bit. Let me know what you think. FYI - this recording is all acoustic plus vocals. Not the gain staging in pedals for electric guitar...

    My acoustic version of a Bonnie Raitt classic

    Haven't posted in a while. I don't know why but I really like Ms. Raitt's "I Cant Make You Love Me" so I took a stab at it. Lotsa background noise but I hear that in all my recording so I've given up on that. I'm obviously not the best guitar player out there but I enjoy playing and singing...

    Acoustic version of "Drive"

    Been a while since I posted. This is a very simple, stripped version of this Incubus song. I did experiment a bit with effects on the vocals and the lead guit. Feedback appreciated. I'm listening to it right now and am already identifying areas that need fixing. Thanks in advance...

    Reaching vocal limits

    Long time no post. Would highly appreciate a couple minutes of your time listening to the top song called "Here With Me." I tried my best to do this Mercy Me cover (acoustic version) and am now considering giving it up. I think the vocal demands are just too much for my limited range to handle...

    Rode NTK fan looking for a live vocal mic

    Need your suggestions on two mics: My bigger need is for quieter solo or duo acoustic applications. Condensor maybe? The Neumann is too expensive for me. I've read about the 535 and the e865s here in the forum but not a whole lot on a Rode condensor for live use. Doesn't need to be a Rode but...

    Another acoustic/vocal tune needing critique

    Stretching my very limited vocal abilities quite a bit here. I've tried retracking several areas but I can't seem to get it any better. Should I keep or trash this? It is the very first one called "Here With Me." Thanks in advance. http://www.box.net/shared/2goarza7f5

    Is the bass too strong?

    It's the first song "Wonderwall Ac." I had to redo the vocals but for some reason the whole things seems way too boomy for me. Not sure if somethings off with my settings or not. Let me know what you guys thing and TIA. http://www.box.net/shared/2goarza7f5

    Acoustic version of Mercy Me's "Homesick"

    Recorded this contemporary Christian song a while back. Can't get rid of the hiss. Will have to retrack the opening and ending guitar and certain parts of the vocals when I can. Any feedback appreciated. Thanks in advance. http://www.audiostreet.net/artist.aspx?artistid=8326

    Neil Young cover

    Don't know how to play harmonica so I improvised. Also, you can tell that I was congested when I did the vocals but oh well. Its the first one called "Weekend." Feedback appreciated. http://www.audiostreet.net/artist.aspx?artistid=8326

    This is different for me.

    Not my genre but I tried anyway. Please critique. I'll start by saying that I am not a lead guitar player so that part needs to be replaced. Second, some parts of the vocals need to be re-tracked. Let me know what you guys think. http://www.audiostreet.net/artist.aspx?artistid=8326

    James Taylor cover

    Another very simple format - acoustic guitar and vocals. Feedback appreciated. Song for you, far away by James Taylor http://www.audiostreet.net/artist.aspx?artistid=8326

    Very simple recording

    Lifehouse's "You and Me." Just acoustic guitar and vocals. Thinking about doing coffeehouses so I didn't fix the mistakes to hear how people would hear me. I think the song carried me to audiostreet's #1 artist in this easy listening genre. Feedback appreciated...

    Frustrated...song sucks despite all efforts!

    http://www.audiostreet.net/artist.aspx?artistid=8326 It's the one called Promises. Vocals need retracking especially background. Bass playing is crappy and still too boomy in certain areas. Rhythm guitar strumming sometimes weird. Better yet scrap the whole thing and take up knitting.
