wow that was good
is that all you? did you record the rhythm 1st then the lead over it? if so is all you need is audacity to do that? :coolsmile:

Yep, it’s all me. I suppose you could do it solely with Audacity, although I ran a loop with my pedal of the rhythm, then practiced the lead notes over and over. Then I recorded the loop in Audacity, then added a track, pressed record and the loop that recorded plays as I played the lead. With the added track, if the lead don’t turn out I can cut that track and start over.
Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it.

so im guessing you record thur your pedal to your computer with a usb cord and not a mic
I dont have anything like your pedal or a mic, besides whats on the computer,but im guessing that would sound bad

I never did get the USB patch to work, I just go straight into the mic jack on the PC, you can get a 1/4″-3.5mm adapter. It took me a while to figure out how to setup the PC to record direct from the sound card. I think it’s called”stereo mix” in the control panel, sounds. If it’s not there, right click in a blank spot in that box and click on the tab to activate what’s not seen.

Hey thanks for your input Josh! I really appreciate the comments from you guys. Mix down…..lol….. I’m taking such baby steps and am so uninformed that I’m really not sure what that is. The volume can be adjusted in/out, I just think I had the initial input too high from the pedal playing the acoustic. One of the volume controls only controls what your hearing I think and it doesn’t adjust anything for the final output…. I think…. I’m sure having fun though, and I think the more I use it the more I’ll understand. I’m trying working with wild horses now. I think that will really be fun as long as I can lay down the noodling in the right way, not really perfect, but sounding good. That’s my project for tomorrow. The only thing is, I play then have to ice my shoulder because it gets to hurting pretty good. I go to therapy again in the morning and that really helps loosen it up to where I can stand playing longer.
Thanks again!
I would really like to see some of the rest of you folks putting up some audio links.

Yeah, I took it down after sharing it with a few here. You’re not missing much. If you are reallllly interested in hearing it, I can put it back up for awhile.
