sweet direct, directed

I spent my weekend working this out. Now alls it really needs is (big-time) Luke to write a guitar part for it and play it, and it also needs Luke and girl to sing their parts instead of me. I'm pretty happy with it; I hope the recording quality shows at least at all in this youtuber.



Notes:
• The dual voice that you hear is my attempt at stereo with one mic (i.e. I sang each part twice—once into the left input and once into the right input—the syncing could be better)
• Drum tracks make me feel like I'm not a real musician. Also I guess I've never felt like a real musician anyway—except in my marching band outfit. The drums are obviously not real drums on this song.
• There are a few other singing mistakes/imperfections on this song that I will wait to change for when we have guitar and girl.
• The direct TRS line from my keyboard to preamp worked great, but it also worked like the singing (for stereo I had to play each part twice).
• After watching the vid, I think the up in quality still shows.

there you go. Bravo bravo. That's quality, I felt it. I like what I'm hearing.

Note to self: Keep the keys up for "and then went back to bed and ran your smile through my mind again" the same as they are for "I watched me some TV, unplugged the tree and drank some sweetened milk."

And, 4-Slyce, I always appreciate your positive reinforcement.
