"Your Deception" First song in a long time.....

[themuzic]

Been dealing with Dysphonia (voice loss) for 3 years and have adapted to my limitations enough to begin writing and recording again. It's not the voice I want but it's something to work with at least. Love to get some feedback.

All the recording and production was done in Studio one Pro 2.5 using all stock plugins. All acoustic guitars and vocals were recorded with a single Rode NT1a and the rest of the guitars are cambo of loops and midi performances. The bass was played on my trusty Fender Precision. The drums were all from Spectrasonic's Stylus and played in a Roland TD-3 Custom kit. Enjoy

Voice sounds good, Acoustic guitar sounds real nice. Whole tune is very cool, Maybe push the bass up a tad.

 

[Illsidgus]

sounds very good to me. I wish I had a voice that good. Levels all seemed good, timing was spot on and vocals sounded great. Keep up the great work.

 

[themuzic]

Thanx to both of you for the confidence boost and i really appreciate you checking it out.

Very nice production qualities. Only thing that stood out to me was an occasional click on the right hand side. You've obviously overcome the voice loss thing, vocal sounds great. Good tune, well done

Yeah...nice tune, solid arrangement, and well recorded. Your voice is working well for the song...I would just use it as-is, it's got a nice distinct sound.
Oh...I would also push the bass up a bit, the funky beat needs the bass to groove better.

The ending is a bit loose....you need to have a cleaner stop with all instruments. One lags on the right side....or is that intentional?

That click is an anomaly from how I play the guitar. I noticed it too but kinda let it go. Thanx for listening.

It was actually intentional. I like a more live feel with my guitars against all the quantizing done these days. I thought they were good enough to leave alone so not to punch record too much and play things all the way through. Thanx for catching it. I may think differently when I put an album together.
