I just wanted to post a quick demo. This was a one shot recording using my Live tracks.No massaging what so ever. I played, sang & pushed the button for the harmonies.Hope you enjoy! BTW No pitch correction either. Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain

It's a cool unit. I use one of these, but I don't use the harmonies, they just don't fit with what I do and I don't want to deal with the footswitch. But I think they sound great on this and you use it very well and don't over do the harmonies which is common. Nice singing I enjoyed it very much. Even w/o the harmonies the unit adds greatly to my vocals in a live setting.

Sounds like the GXT is working out pretty good for you John!
I bet this will add an extra dimension to your live shows. Well done.

Good job, I like the way you placed the harmonies - they don't draw attention to themselves - but sound great.

Thanks for the comments.Much appreciated.
For those that do listen just to explain that I don't do recordings to be place on CD.I'm just not interested in that. Strange I know. My recording is for live playing so my technique is a different approach. First off everything is stereo with all the instruments panned dead center.I also try for a more raw live sound verses a smooth polished sound. On stage I want to feel a real band behind me. Just my approach right or wrong.
BTW I did push the vocals slightly out front for the demo.

Nice work John i loved the harmonies on that thjey were just right. One thing i started to do recently is to actually record the harmonies into the song and to break them up and record one voice at a time so i can do a smidge of panning and effects.
This take time, but the results are great and i do not need to carry the harmonizer unit with me.

I've mulled that one over in my mind as well. I need to think it through a little more though.

Hey John! This sounds good to my ears. You sound a little like Willie Nelson. You have a good country voice. The harmonies were pretty good. occ

Ditto! And to that it takes a little work, especially for live setup but you did good.

John, it’s all been said. You have a fantastic country voice and those harmonies were perfectly blended into the song.
If I heard this at a record/CD store I would have bought it on the spot.
Two thumbs ups.
When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"

Eventually got to listen.
Well done, but I found it difficult to hear the harmonies as it sounded, to me, more like doubling BUT nicely done.

I enjoyed it very much and I bet your audiences will enjoy it a great deal too.
Your subtle use of the harmony adds just the right seasoning.
Great job.
If you don't mind me asking, what style were you using ?

Thanks all. My intent really was just to show how nice this unit is by just plugging it in and going with it.I got it last Friday and used it Saturday night. Over a PA it really adds.
Bill,
I don't use styles at all. The first thing I do for songs is lay it all out in BIAB then open it in RB. At that point I delete the first 8 tracks which are the BIAB tracks. I build my tracks one at a time. I try to keep my "band" consistent so I sound like a typical 6 piece country band.If you listened to me play it sounds like a Real Band playing different songs.
