Playing in tune is a relative thing. One guitar only has to be in tune with itself. Like you, I don't tune my guitar when I'm playing. I strum it, I can tell if it's in tune with itself. Good enough for practice. However, I do tune it, if I'm going to record or play with other people. I know a...

I was in Shanghai in 2008 visiting our CN factory. One of the places I went to in my leisure time was called, wait for it..... The copymart! You could get your name brand fashion clothing, Rolex or other high dollar watch, electronics, or anything else you can imagine, all with authentic (um)...

Look at the tooling or casting marks. You might be surprised to find they are the same. I wouldn't be surprised if you find a Neumann pc board (although maybe not with all the spec'd components). The company I worked for had countless parts sold to competitors made from our tooling. We also had...

It doesn't matter if someone shares you views. What matters is that your views contribute to the discussion.

That's interesting. I never thought of using a headphone or speaker for a mic. I wonder how many have done it?

I've video recorded myself using my GoPro Hero10 and the audio file is stereo and can be edited in any DAW. You can't easily use an external mic though. I've also had my wife video record me with her iPad and I then rerecorded the guitar and vocal (while playing along with the original audio)...

Nice laid back song. Well done. How are you recording the acoustic guitar? Is it plugged in, mic'd separately or through the vocal mic?

Too bad about the battery replacement. I guess the theory is by the time the battery craps out, it's time for a new laptop, phone etc. I don't understand why they can't just repair what you sent it to them for. They probably thought you would pay more without question. The good thing is, the fix...

Nope, works fine, and I have three of them that I use with three of the earlier Dell power supplies. Considering a new Dell XPS power supply is $30+, I decided to roll the dice for $4. Bought one adapter, it worked, so I bought two more. Paid off for me. Out of curiosity, what model laptop do...

Use this adapter. $3.99 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JRFWQ6Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The Dell power supply I use is from an old Dell Inspiron 600m. I have used it for years with the original 600m laptop and two newer Dell laptops. I have powered my current Dell...

When did Dell start coding the power supplies? I have an XPS 15 7590 that I bought new 2/21. Since I have a bunch of older Dell power supplies, it's easier to just leave a power supply where I use the computer instead of carrying one around. I bought several of the adapter cords that go from the...

Sticking with EZD2. If I'm going to upgrade, I need to think it will actually be useful.

That's much better. I still think the vocal could go up another db. Maybe there is a little masking going on between the keyboard and the vocal. The backing vocals seem to sit better now instead of sticking out on top. Did you do any tweaking on them? I don't think your voice sounds bad.

Cool song. My only suggestion is the lead vocal could be a little louder.

Turn off the main power disconnect by the electric company usage meter if you have a modern electrical service. If you have an older service like I do with no disconnect, you have to pull the meter. See if you still get the noise on your battery powered amp. Hopefully, it's something in your...

I have a friend that uses his cell phone to record guitar ideas. If it's an electric, he lays the phone on top of the amp. He sent a short piece a couple of weeks ago and it sounded darn good. Would probably work for acoustic too but I haven't asked if he's done that.

I would try a different microphone, either borrow or buy one if you have to. You need to determine if the problem is in the microphone or signal chain.

EZ has your new drummer. I'm using EZ drummer and bass. They work for me. So far all I've had to do is tweak levels, note length, or minor things like that. I like to concentrate on my performance and not worrying so much about the instruments I can't play is nice. It's also nice that they are...

I really enjoyed the song and thought it was well done. Your voice sounds fine to me.

That's the story with almost everything I buy "I wanted it"!
