Title: Believe in Yourself (MP3)
Post by: a.hughes on October 08, 2005, 05:43:11 am

Yay!
I just bought about $600 in stuff to start recording properly. I bought an Edirol UA-25 sound card
http://www.edirol.net/products/en/UA-25/index.html

A microphone and a heap of leads to hook up all my instruments to the sound card.
And I've been using Cakewalk Sonar LE to record and organise.
Anyway, here's something I wrote and recorded tonight, I hope you like:

It's because you have to copy paste it. And make sure there's no space on the end when you do :)

Good work!

Music sticks very well with the lyrics.
It's just a suggestion, but the strings would be perfect if it was just a violin.
My opinion.

Thank you and thanks for your opinion :)

I added the whole string section on top of the rest at the end because I wanted it to sort of build up, coming to a close sort of thing.

The "violin" sound is actually the cello sound on my piano, but I sort of went a bit high for a cello! Something I must fix. And I'll try out just using a violin.

Thanks again, it's very much appreciated.

You're an excellent pianist.  The music had me hooked from the beginning.  It  just picked me up & swept me away.  :razz:
