The Apnea Blues Sorry about your disorder, Tom, but I guess this is a good use of your time. Have you tried one of those nose-strips that football players used to wear? You're for real. I wouldn't suggest changing a thing. This is another one of those 'homegrown' pieces of yours from yesteryear that seems to appear like a ghost on the night wind.

Good ol' blues Nice, genuine blues song, Bronco. Good playing and singing. I enjoyed it. I'd like to hear you sing into a more proper mic though, rather than the pinhole. It's not really a matter of fidelity, more just so it doesn't sound like you're across the room while your guitar and harp are up front. I like the rawness; just would like to hear a more consistent sense of space. Check out my latest song called From Nothing

Good ol' blues For aclarke, tom, and prgreenstone, Thanks for the kind words. My mic is a Shure SM58 and everything was done through it - vocal, guitar and harmonica. This has been an ongoing mystery as to why I am continually told that my vocals aren't up front, lack prescence, sound like I am in a box, too far away from the mic, etc. I run my Mac through a Sony receiver and Bose speakers and the vocals sound okay to me. I and my partner Tracy sing no more than two inches from the mic. My sound pattern is so full that I am scared if I get closer than that I will get distortion. In Garageband I have stopped using any reverb or echo on the vocal. The only effects I had was compression with the slider all the way to the left, and eq bringing up the bass and turning down treble a little. If I turn all effects off I don't notice very much change in the sound except the volume goes down. I'm not trying to sound authentic. This is just me and the way I sing and sound. But I do appreciate your comments and thanks for listening. Check out my latest song called Sleeping On The Sofa

Good ol' blues That's curious. You mention no effects on the vocals. What effects or settings, if any, are being applied in the GarageBand Master Track? --- Mungo |

Good ol' blues What about the room you and Tracy are singing in? Is it large? Lively? Wood floors? Tile? I have mentioned before sometimes it sounds like you are all jamming in your living room. Can you record the vocals in a smaller space? Once again, I suggest trying a closet, if possible. Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

And As Adam Clark said, another good song. I enjoyed your song, singing and guitar performance. |

Nice tune! I enjoy this style of blues. Just a guy and his guitar telling a story. I like the way the vocals sound, however I think the "spaciness" comes from the room you are in. Check out my latest song called Smoove

Another good song, Bronco. Sounds like you're using the
pinhole mic. For the music you do it works very well,
giving your music a certain authenticity. Sounds like it
could have come from Elvis' Sun Sessions era.
