Dee - nicely played, tones sound good to me. This sounds like quite the tough piece to play and you've done a great job.....

Thanks ido. I've been playing that piece for along time now and I still can't play it nearly as well as Randy did. :)
 
Listened to Dee. Very nice playing, guitar tone and recording. The ornaments in the upper voice are really well done (not an easy thing for the left hand work) and there's a sensitive but consistent touch with the right hand. The highs on the gtr are especially clear and sweet sounding.

The low notes on the fifth and sixth strings are a little boomy so you might want to keep experimenting with mic position and your position in the room relative to corners and walls so you don't have to do much processing to get the sound perfectly balanced.

To balance this out just right with processing, you might try EQing it with a bit of low end rolloff, or use a multiband compressor to do the same thing dynamically.
 
Both sound very nice. Nice playing too. I haven't played with my fingers hardly at all for years. I'm afraid it has pretty much left me :( Strange when I was a kid it's most of what I did.


Any way very cool!



F.S.
 
Nice interpretation of Bron-yr-aur. Used to play it myself. But I preferred to play Bron-yr-aur Stomp. To bad I stink at singing.

Nice playing.
 
Thanks for the feedback. :)

Funny you say that. I actually gave a little boost to the low end because I wanted to hear more of the bass notes. I guess I should undo that if it's boomy.

That was the only EQ I did though. The guitar is naturally really bright but lacks low end unless I get mic position perfect and play in just the right part of the room which I've still yet to find. It's usually luck when I get a nice balanced tone in the recordings. :(

In these recordings I just setup the mic and played, didn't pay much attention to placement.
 
Listened to both.

Dee was extremely well performed and recorded!

Bron-Yr-Aur did contain some of that buzzing you mentioned but nonetheless was also well played.

:cool:
 
Nicely recorded, they sound really good for someone who just set the mike up and played. I can't get a decent acoustic sound for the life of me.

Your stuff is good, well done

Still no luck on getting a good acoustic sound? :confused:

Well, thanks for the comments. :) Hope you figure something out! :)
 
Really like the version of Bron-Yr-Aur. I used to play that one also, and it ain't easy. :cool:

Nice job bro!

Yeah it's not an easy one. I would have done another take but my hands hurt too much after the first one. :)

Thanks for the feedback. :cool:
 
Very nice!
Like the touch...
(I don't know if my last "half sentence" make any sense in English but it was supposed to be big compliment.) :)

Nice job on Bron-Yr-Aur! Very close. I was half expecting it to break into Down by the Seaside at the end

I posted a comment for another acoustic piece 1 or 2 months ago.
I like too much your playing and dinamics.Very clean and "punchy".
Did you used the 2496 or 1212 as converter?
And the mic, is the MSH?
Congrats
(take a look on page´s song, E (first)and B strings tuning)

I used the 2496 on these recordings.

For the mic, I used one Behringer ECM8000. I no longer have an MSH-1 mic but I've got another one coming to me in the mail pretty soon. :)

I had my guitar tuned to (from low-to-high) C A C G C E...I think that's right... :)

Thanks for the feedback. :cool:
 
I don´t know for lead lines, but for this kind of acoustic chord playing I´m impressed with ECM 8000 ... :cool:
