I’ve spent a lot of time recently recording a bunch of R.E.M. covers (a side effect of my Twitter project, https://twitter.com/imitationofrem), and frankly I need help Or rather, if anyone else out there enjoys twiddling knobs, I’d happily get feedback and advice on how I can move from “rank amateur” to “competent” when it comes to mixing and mastering (and singing, and playing, and performing, and…). Performances vary from “hmmm” to “passable”.
Current project: Achoustic Town! Aim is to capture lead vocal/guitar as a live performance and layer on acoustic bass/BVs.
I’ve done a little home recording as part of our virtual band jams, but mostly just doing the vocal tracking in Logic then handing it to someone way better than me to do the rest. The company I work for just bought PreSonus, so we now have a lot of home recording gear in our arsenal, and I’m trying to learn how to use it.
Hello!!! A couple of (relatively) familiar usernames on here, from twitter, for me. Given I wasn’t on Murmurs, first time around. I just know a few, of the R.E.M. Twitter Community
Thanks! The thing that struck me about the lyrics on Chronic Town are how few of them there are! With the exception of Gardening At Night the songs are largely one verse/chorus repeated. Makes them easy to remember
