Good job on this Douglas.

Thanks Lynn - Usually it is tough for me to write lyrics - I am very happy with how this one came out.

Thank you for listening!

Great job on this.

Nice job Lynn - I like your vocal tone on this one - also the harmonies.

Bandlab's @kiwichrys performs vocals on this original tune. https://baselines.com/?p=5583 Lyrics If there are words you've never said before, tell them to me, and I'll tell you. Precious time is running out, while I'm watching... as I'm watching. Before you go. It's been a while since we've...held each others hand. I'll hold it now, as your eyes are asking why.... why this has to end. It breaks my heart. There's a doctor in the house, who wears compassion on his sleeve... telling everyone, that God is make believe. And every silence takes my breath, until the breathing starts again. When you open up your eyes, do you recognize my face. Seconds ticking slowly in the dark of night. Flowers scent the air, a reminder, of this world's friends. Tether's almost broken, pretty soon, you'll go. If there are words you've never said before, tell them to me, and I'll tell you. Precious time is running out, while I'm watching... as I'm watching. Before you go.

Right there with you brother! I remember being excited on the 5th grade school bus because the Beatles were on TV that night!

Hi David - thanks. Mostly for fun, but I am trying to attract new clients for production services. So having some tracks available helps! Steve

Hi Jeff, there are a few Jeff McDonald users on Bandlab. If you tell me your @ username, I'll give you a follow. On the songs I do, generally I play the Bass, Piano and Guitar parts on the real instruments (and Ukulele sometimes). All other sounds are midi plugins for the most part. Superior Drummer 3 for the drum parts with a Maschine MK3 MICRO as a drum pad. Native Instruments, Dimension Pro, AAS Tassman and a few others. On this one 2 of the three violin tracks are real violins, and the 'trumpet' lead is a real trombone. When I quote, I just hit the 'Quote' link and it seems to work for me - opens up a new post including the previous post.

Hi Douglas - yes you are spot on! McCartney double tracked that vocal, so I used Waves Reel ADT on it - that plugin was developed based on what they used to use at Abbey Road studio by controlling two tape machines and slowing down then speeding up one. Thanks for the feedback! Steve

Hi Tom thank you so much for the feedback and suggestions. I'll go back and take a listen - next time I update it I will keep this in mind. Aaron is from England (on Bandlab) and he did the vocal...he does a lot of Beach Boys harmonies as well - he's got a much better range than I do. As far as the mix and when the bass comes in, it is something I have been trying to do some automation around. In this case, I boosted the bass and highend of the piano when it was alone and gradually pull it back, but it still did not bring it up to the areas where iZotope Tonal Balance Control was happy. It is something I intend to work on in the future. Some of those strings were actual acoustic violin which Michael Herter supplied (Bandlab, Germany). Steve

Haitian Divorce - Steely Dan Cover
steve@baselines.com replied to steve@baselines.com's topic in Songs
I got some info from @kiwichrys, and this is what she said. She also said it was probably more due to me using Nectar on what she sent, but I agree the quality is good. 'An old old rusty banged up 100% reliable sm58 shure mic with xlr lead directly into a focusrite scarlett 212 interface then via a monitor volume amplifier (cos scarlett is crap for monitor volume) straight into the pc USB and directly into the bandlab studio recorder.'- 11 replies

Thanks a lot Paul - yes it took a few weeks to get all the parts! I'm not very good on guitar, so I had to learn and record it in smaller sections.- 11 replies
