Something I've been experimenting with the last few days.

The Levee

Am I on the right track here or should I forget it.

Honest opinion I can take it

Sounds like you're on the right track.

Mix could be adjusted a bit. Let me know if you need help.

I think you're on the right track John. 8)

As far as the mix, I think there is some clipping, (i think that's what you call it - alittle unwanted distortion?), on your vocals, and maybe the levels between the guitar & vocals could be evened out alittle more. That's my only opinion on the recording, besides the fact that you need to add an extended slide solo! :wink: If this is something you're trying to work up to play live; I think it'll go over well. Oh! how about a harp solo! Now we're talking! :wink: 8)

Sounds good, a bit hard to hear( sounds like a pretty low bit rate from the host site). I liked the guitar :D

Thanks Guys

Yes the mix is a little off. I intentionally did a rough recording
because I want to see live sound was. Yes Dan, I am working
on this as a performance piece. I will definately work on the mix
PA the next time I get to practice this.

Nice to know I'm heading in the right direction.

I can't hear it. I can never hear anything in Putfile. I think it's because I'm on a Mac.

Hi,

Thanks for the advice everybody.

I tried adjusting my mix and changed it from open A
to open D which I am more comfortable with.

The Levee Takes 1&2

All comments appreciated.

Pearl, Sorry you can't listen but this is a work in progress and
I really don't want to post it on my SoundClick page yet.

I like it even more in Open D. It seems to fit your vocals better too. Well done. :D
