Hello everyone!
So, after much advice from everyone over the last few days I have put together a new recording!
My major changes have been as follows:
1) I found recording with the acoustic was too difficult so I went electric. I just find it much easier to sing while playing and getting everything in one take. Instead, I switched to an electric guitar and hooked that straight to the soundcard (no mic/amp recording). This allowed me to record in stereo and even though there is some bleed from the unplugged electric, I don't think it affected the recording much. Especially because I didn't play with the vocals at all.
2) I also did not make any fx changes to the vocals this time. So this is your first chance to hear me naked There are definitely parts that I don't like in the vocals (enunciations, pitch, key, amplitude), but based on advice I got from people on the earlier forum, I decided not to touch them for the time being. (I also didn't pan them like I previously did.)
3) In general I just did less fx. I did several takes for leads etc... Definitely not the best work, but after all the work I've been putting into this stuff I decided to just let it go for now. I did some editing work (erasing parts, copying and pasting lead parts) but really not much. I also played a bit with the panning of the leads a bit.
Please let me know what you think!
In addition, as you will see I think the vocals needs some work. Do you think fx could fix up the flaws or it requires to be retracked?
Thanks in advance!
