Tagging was easy using windows media player - right click the track in the library and select advanced tag editor.
leveling & mixing the tracks is an art in itself:) start off with Mp3Gain to get each track into the same ballpark, then Audacity for fine alterations, and both programs are Free. for more detail silent jim's yer man to ask
for my tune i used an m-audio fast track ultra 8R interfaced with my laptop and the Reaper program
(it's a great multi track program that is free to use. it uses a nagbox that lets you know how often you have used it and that it is only 60 bucks for individual users to buy....when you are ready)
i plugged my daddy mojo 5 string into a micro cube rx and took line out to the interface. i used an akg c3000 mike and a cad m189 in a mid side configuration for vocals.
i did one pass vocals and rythmn cbg, one pass vocals again. one pass choruses, one pass slide and fills.
i mixed from those takes.
the track levels are a bit low on the compilation....i'm not much into the video end of things.....i'll put a mix up on my page if anyone would like to have a listen and pass along their thoughts i'd appreciate the input.
cheers
ets
send it off here: cbndylantribute@yahoo.co.uk and i'll add it in knotlenny
I recorded mine the easy peasy way,Recorded both CBG tracks with reverb ,with the beat live onto my Tascam DR 07 MKII handheld recorder,mixed it to Audacity for a bit of compression, EQ and noise removal.Tried to keep the recording as bonine effects wise as I could.
Yeah , dunno ,I did the same to both,Prob didn't use as much noise reduction on hers.Thought maybe I would need it more for the slide guitars on mine.Also recorded hers louder because I wanted to make sure her guitar came thru.
Suprised mine sounded good,I recorded mine at the very last minute in atypical musician fashion.Thanx for the info,much appreciated.As a musician,I would say that mixing is my weakpoint because that requires patience.Patience is hard when you have the attention span of a gnat, like I do.
