Robert,

Welcome to the Showcase!

I enjoyed all of your songs. Very well written. The productions/arrangements worked well for each. And the mixes were good.

The vocals are nice, the harmonies, too.

You have the lead vocal on "Not Mine To Give" panned right - more so it seems once the harmony starts... I would suggest that that stay more centered...even though it is more of a duet type harmony, if you panned that lead vocal at all it should not be "noticeable" - 10% (if at all).

You would likely get more participation in the thread if you limit it to a single song at a time. And tell us a bit about the song and the RTs that you use - you use them well and are creating a terrific Folk sound... sharing those details could help others to find that sound as well...

Again, welcome... nice job! enjoyed it...

Thanks for your welcome and comments, Floyd.
I guess I`ll need some new speakers as on my current settup I only get a hint of the panning problem with the vocals on Not Mine To Give. I nearly threw in the towel on that song due to all the mistakes made with RealBand, but will revisit and repost a better version.
My future posts will go one number at a time as you suggest... the excitement of finding BIAB and deciding to begin recording songs played mostly to the 4 walls til now has had me on a tear to get something out.
Robert

Thanks Scott C
I will post lyrics - it may take a week or so as I don`t have any on computer yet.

Nice stuff Robert!! Welcome to the forum! You obviously have been doing this a while. You have a really great folk voice and a nice style. You have done a great job of using the RTs effectively to create your sound. I would love to see lyrics, as well as RTs used. Glad to have you aboard! Take care. Greg
