Finishing Touches (March)

Tomorrow I am presenting my project to the teachers at 4 o'clock.  This project has been a lot of fun and has really inspired me to keep recording and hopefully continue to improve.

The End.

Last Demo (February 2012)

This might be my last demo, but I figured I'd put one together quickly.

New Demo (January 2012)

This was a short one, but I was just experimenting with the wah-wah effect on the electric guitar.  I borrowed the shaker sound from Mixcraft.

New Years Jam (January 2012)

I rang in the new year with a new demo recording.  This time with a cowbell.

Problems (November 2011)

My biggest problem so far, would have to be the drum recording.  With the equipment available to me (basically one microphone), it's proving really difficult to get a good, full sound from my drum set.  Some drum mics would be really nice. Unfortunately they're kind of pricey.  Oh well.

Third Demo (November 2011)

This one turned out a bit rougher than the previous two.  It's a loud, bluesy recording, so it was much more of a challenge to cleanly and clearly capture all the instrumentation with my available equipment.  Hopefully someday, unfortunately probably not during the project, I'll be able to buy some nicer equipment.
