Re: JULY 2018 FSTOM - OPEN MONTH

Another attempt at the Gordon Lightfoot song "If you could read my mind" - last month I was trying a new mic and it made my bad voice sound even badera, so trying again:

Neo your voice and guitar came through good. A great cover suits your style of playing and singing.

Thank you - the headset I tried last month was a cheapie from China; I thought it sounded OK at the time, but when I reviewed the videos later, it was of poor quality - so I've gone back to using my Rode Lav+, and just attached it to the headset so it brings the microphone closer to my mouth, and _seems_ to get a better balance between voice and guitar. (although, with one mic, and no way to monitor it, it's still a bit of hit and miss ...)

Cheers

Thanks for that ... I also recorded this one in the same session: https://youtu.be/JzrUR8cLMlQ but I got a couple of chords twisted up towards the end, so will do a better version later ...

It's been a bit busy this month ...

Cheers
