I spent the past two days trying to sing and play this song, one that DNJ posed as a challenge to me a couple days ago. This is a very difficult song for me to sing, mainly because of the tightness of the vocal lines, plus the harmony segments. This was a 2-day project for me, and the most difficult part was the vocal harmony, which I must fine tune to eliminate some of the minor distortion. Also, I was a bit heavy with the left hand, overlayed male chorus, which I need to lower the volume a bit, maybe about 50 percent. I'll let you folks pick it apart and make some recommendations on what I need to do with it, then I'll wait for another rainy day and go to work on it.

Thanks for all that hard work, Gary:
Vocal Harmony and Effects have been "eating my lunch" since the day I bought that 970 from Mason. Every now and then, I think I'm gaining on mastering the beast(s)... but I have such a long way to go... and fear there isn't enough time to "get-R-done" before "croaksville" sets-in! LOL!
This is really nice. Bravo to you, too... Donny... for "goading" Gary into accepting the challenge. Just another thing that keeps me returning to this "site" when I know I have other chores and tasks needing attention. Experimentation without fear of reprisal... or having to wear the "cone of shame" out into public view is part of the ambiance of this particular group.
Thanks to both of you... and the rest of you super nice folks who provide moral support, levity and humor into our middle of the road lives.
Well done! ----Dave Dave your very welcome but I wouldn't call it "goading" at all but think of it as if someone came up to you on stage and made a "request" for a song, personally I would be happy to play it for them if I knew it for sure,.......on top of that I am from the school of learning from others by Watching & Listening and if you don't share your music & singing after all whats the sense of just talk talk talk if you can't hear hear hear it? It's music and should be heard no matter what although many like to keep it all bunched up to themselves. But that is what a music discussion forum is for sharing. I know I have learned from the best through the years and still am to this day. But I have to "hear" what your talking about Sorry for the rant. take care Boy these Honey Cherios and Fresh Strawberries are yummy!!

Good morning Donny and Dave, and thank you both for the compliments. I have someone coming to my home today that I am tutoring on the S-970, and with any kind of luck, we will be able to set up his vocal harmony section to where it will be acceptable. He just began working the senior circuit as a solo entertainer, but also has a 4-piece band, making this even more challenging. Thanks again, Gary

Tony, his band does not have a bass player, just a drummer, a fiddle player, an acoustic guitar player and him playing the keyboard and providing the vocals. Gary

Yep, that's pretty much the way he and his band have been doing it as well. Additionally, he needs the accomp on to trigger the keyboard's vocal harmony, which he does with his left hand. He tried to chord trigger with his right hand, but finds this a bit difficult. The only person I know of that triggers the vocal harmony with his right hand is Uncle Dave, who has mastered this process incredibly. All the best, Gary
