    Re: New project

    She's 20, but looks about 12 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
    She's short, got a babyface (seriously - she brought in a pic from her 2nd grade yearbook - no difference [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]), but not too bad on the eyes.

      New versions. Remixed it in Adobe Audition with the Antares Vocal Correction plugin. I also re-did the guitar a little. I came up with some new progressions and did 4 versions - original, all new, original verses/new chorus, and new verses/original chorus - and had her pick the one she liked best. She's trying to decide between these two backings - original chromatic chord progression or new verse/original chorus.
      Of course I only had the original chromatic vocal track to lay over it, so the Antares thing works great in some places but can't quite pull it into tune with the chords because they're so far from the originals she sang to.

      There's still a timing issue in the choruses that I'm trying to work on without butchering the vocal track. Maybe if I add snare hits on the accent points.

      And never mind the guitar flub at the stop - I was trying to decide whether to stop everything or keep the guitar and bass going at the breaks, and did both at once [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

        Hey Matt, I noticed you titled the recording Laurens Song.
        You should change it to Laurens Thong and instead of posting clips or her horrible out of key lifeless whiny no timing voice, you should post pics of her in a thong.
        Here is reality bro. She doesn't have a good voice. Its aweful. The only person listening to her voice is the little man in your pants! I love musicians. Especially record producers. Do you have a couch near your recording console?? All in fun bro!! JG

          [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Yeah I know, but you know how you can keep telling yourself something over and over and you'll believe it? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

          Besides, I'm learning how to use an Antares plug-in, as well as furthering my production, engineering, and recording skillz. You know how much people are paying to learn those things at FullSail? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img]

          And hey - I've heard worse singers - with major contracts even [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

            Besides key it was her lack of emotion and timing that killed it for me. But hey if I could work with a 20 years old chick singer, i would give it a shot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

              Yup. Like I said all along - it ain't about her career, it's about MINE! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
              If I can get ME out there through her, more power to me [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                It's really taking shape and is much easier to listen to now. She might not be that great of a singer but give her credit for at least trying. It's coming along nicely.

                  She's stated before that she'd be happy as a songwriter if she couldn't get to be a singer, and she's got another song that sounds better than this one, but it's still going to take some work.
                  At least the riffs came easier for the other one [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
                  But she said she wants to finish this one before starting on the other one. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

                  Hopefully this weekend I can get her to lay down a good vocal track (if the Antares rack I won from Ebay gets here in time - it's coming from whatever's left of Florida [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])

                    OK, dude...she is fucking terrible. I mean, world class shit. The song and the production sound pretty good though. The fact that she is a Pentacostal pretty much insures that she will never even have an iota of a chance because those girls certainly don't give head...and this girl would have to suck alot of dick.

                    Have fun with her though. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                    Sleep. The sound doesn't collapse to riffs of early eyes either.
