Hi all...It's been awhile since I posted. I arranged & produced this song I wrote myself.

Here's my workflow: As usual, I'll think of an arrangement & then the rhythm is layed with my trusty Korg PA 4X...What would I do without her ? After the foundation is layed, I played the piano, & acoustic guitars, & then cut my lead vox...Then I recorded my BGV's in the 2nd Verse & 2nd Chorus.

I did bring in my Nashville session electric guitarist & my background vocalist who is Faith Hills also background vocalist to lend a hand.

Hope you like the song & the Video...

Very nice. Very professional. I'm interested in the recording process. Studio?, Home Studio? If Home studio, what equipment?

Thanks,

chas

Excellent as usual,lot of work gone into this production,I very
much liked the video.

Hi Chas, I live in a small guest house which is my living quarters/studio. Recorded on my 11 year old TASCAM DP24 & mixed on Studio One 4. Mic is a Audio Technica 4040. Guitar is a 1960's Yamaha Red Nippon I got for $20...And of course the Korg PA4x...

Oh and my daughter shot the footage for the video & I edited on Final Cut Pro X

Thanks. Great job. Clearly someone knows their way around the recording process. Editing is first rate. I had a DP24. Nice piece of gear but I ultimately found computer recording with a good interface (I/O 26) easier for me (Reaper with a gazillion plugs). I don't sing so I have no expensive mics, just 3 or 4 of the $2-300 variety. I have a variety of vocal processors but if you can't sing, they don't help .

Super job Steve. Thanks for sharing your wonderful video and arrangement. Sounds terrific through phones!

I agree with the 4X - terrific board and so much potential.

Love your message too.

Excellent Steve. Good to hear a new tune.

Hi Zuki,

Thanks for the listen & the great comments...Yeah through headphones you hear it all...Nice touch

Steve,

Absolutely pro stuff. Must have taken quite awhile, and a lot of work, but it has paid off in an outstanding music video. Congrats.

Your 60's Yamaha acoustic guitar for $20 ? Wow. Did you have to restore it at all? Needless to say, you got a great deal, it's a classic.

Keep up the good work with your 4X and Red Nippon
