Douglas Kirby Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Hi Everybody, This is a track off of the album I'm currently working on called "The Westerly Sessions Volume V". As always, any comments or critiques are welcome, and thanks for listening. The lead vocal was sung with an AKG C214 through a Chameleon Labs 7603 mic preamp. The backing vocals were sung with an AT4040. The rhythm guitar was played with a Guild OM-140. The lead guitar was my Fender Strat through my ART MPA Gold preamp through TH-U. The bass guitar is my Ibanez SR500. The synths are UVI Synthology 3. The drums are AD2. Here it is: https://www.soundclick.com/music/songInfo.cfm?songID=14164106 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornpdx Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Doug, I don't have any suggestions for you except keep up the good work. Well, actually I was kind of expecting a little delay fx after the Stay Forever words but that's just me. -Bjorn 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeringAmps Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Doug, I know I've mentioned this before, you are one of the most prolific writers on the forum. Another good one; ?'s. Especially liked that middle 8/bridge (3:15 ish), nice little twist there. t I've asked this before too, how does the ranking system at Sound Click work? (general ? for all) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(general ? for all) Hi Tom - thanks for listening. Regarding SoundClick - I think it's just number of plays that determines their ranking system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
