pick with mark's backtrack

Just my little messed up jab at mark’s backtrack joining request.from here http://www.cigarboxnation.com/group/cbnationrecordingcollective/forum/topics/recording-tips-and-tutorials""i just pluged it into my computer through my headphones on my amp .using the steam punk teisco with whammy .after the 3rd note, i broke a string .. so had to stop and replace it , then started again .. realizing it might sound better if i turn the friggan amp back on .. so i started again .i put it in movie make to edit it ,, while playing with the volume . i accidently dragged half the track with it .. and garbbled it all to hell and wiped some of it .what you got was a guy that was flustered with the whole deal and had to lay something down in order to feel like i accomplished at least something ,, and if anything, expose the results of trying to record stuff when you are flustered .its a great bad example if nothing else ;-)

Hey Pick, I have some questions about how you use Movie Maker for audio editing. PM me when you get a chance would you?

Its all good, and the thread continues to evolve.

The reason I wanted to wait until some people had something ready before posting was simply in the interest of seeing what happened without too much influence from hearing other peoples contribution. I have reconsidered and decided that part of the idea, among other things was perhaps a little ambitious.

The real goal is to get people participating, having fun and perhaps learning something along the way. I like the collaboration idea, and just want to encourage more people to try it, by whatever means available to them or they are comfortable with. I hope we see results of all kinds.

There will be more too, I plan to start multiple songs, each in a different thread, something like Ted intended when he first started that recording group a long time ago.

I appreciate Picks contribution, and am especially happy he provided details and tips on his method. Thats one of the things I was specifically hoping for.

So have a look folks. If its not for you, thats fine. But please feel free to participate any way you see fit. All I am doing is trying to get something started, and provide any information I can.

Have fun and play nice!

Mark

hey don't worry, it'll hopefully make more people aware and maybe come and join in!

That backing track was a bit too smooooth and perfect sounding for my liking, so abit of flusterism was good for it : -)

john , wes , jim , bemuzic .. thanx for your comments .. but seriously i posted this as a bad example that i thought it was, & it shows the results of flusterism .. not to mention playing an electric guit basicly with no sound, due to the headphone jack being engaged .. etc and all the lil silly things that seem to go wrong at times . using limited recording methods.

and the us satisfactory result ;-)

hummm .. oops    right bemuzic ,, gotta admit ..   the layout and  " instructions" etc    were so long and detailed . i didnt read the whole thing   an just sortta scanned it .

see .. now  i'm even a better bad example . lol

but then again   i posted it here ..   only added a link there .

hope i didn't ruin any of marks plans , i'll gladly delete this if he'd rather finsh    whatever   indepth

discussions    he feels necessary first .

and see if i can regain interest later ;-) and if everyone else is still there by then .

lol i could use the redemption .

Pretty good stuff.

I read your description first and was expecting it to be a complete shambles from what you said...which it isn't!! It's pretty cool I reckon.

I've done one, but thought we were supposed to wait to upload it till Mark said "go" ??
