Default The Thrill Is Gone

This was our first shot at doing The Thrill Is Gone. I shot the video on my iPad at Pipelines studio and then pulled the audio out and tweaked it a little in Reaper. The level on the singers mic was set too high so it clipped quite a bit. Too bad I can't adjust the mic level on that damn iPad.

Right on Charles !! (And friends)
Not bad, not bad at all !

General thoughts:
(in no particular order)
Would like to hear a change of guitar tone when you are working a solo, be it a little mid boost or gain boost. Something to cut through more, change of focus from vox to guitar.
Vocalist has nice voice, would love to hear her a little more emotional and committed. She sounds great !
Would also like to hear some back up vocals included from you boys.

Overall sounding real good, congrats brother. A lot of potential here. Thanks for sharing, great job !!

Thanks BC.

We kind of did that as a bit of a jam. I've got a tube screamer and a distortion pedal that I usually kick in on the solos sometimes, but we were just kind of winging things on this one.

The singer wasn't real familiar with the song so I'm sure that had an affect on her performance. Plus it was only the second time she sang with us so she's still a bit shy. She plays keyboard, I'm hoping she'll start bringing her keyboard in and start playing some.

We've got a 5th member but he couldn't make it that night. He sings and plays guitar, he's only played with us once, but he sounded pretty good.

We're planning on do a lot more with the vocals as we get things nailed down a bit more.

Default Outstanding

I just heard this searching for iPad. Nice job. It’s good to hear folks playing & see them enjoying it. It seemed to me the singer was a bit close to the microphone. I liked the guitar sound & solo. I like solos around the melody vs scale based solos. Overall great job.
