Very simple recording

[Sage97]

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.

Sounds good to me! I personally prefer a little bit more balls in my singing, but then again I'm a hard rocker at heart The only thing I'd change is the hard-panned delay is kind of annoying at times. Other than that, good stuff!

Thanks for listening Steve.

I wish I can do more ballsy vocals. I've tried and I just cant seem to pull it off. My abilities are so limited. Cristopher Cross, Michael Franks, David Gates type stuff is all I can do. I always get envious of Sebastian Bach, Sammy Hagar, Steven Tyler style vocals.

Re: the hard panning. Is it on the guitar?

 

[Steve Henningsgard]

Hey don't get me wrong, your voice is good! Very on-key and honest sounding; it's more personal preference than anything

And yeah, listen for the delay on the guitar when you hit especially hard. It delays way off to the sides vs. closer to the middle and distracts me a bit. It's not awful, just a little distracting

Thanks Steve.

I'll check on that delay tomorrow.
