Here is my newest song. I was shooting for a mellow tune. I think I hit it for the most part. The mix isn't bad, but it can always be better when I'm at the board.

Here are the particulars:

Dire_SL Even Rock Ballad (85 RT)
34 Finger Electric Bass
27 Jazz Electric guitar
1 Standard Drum Kit
26 Acoustic Guitar
50 Slow Stings
12 Vibes
1 Acoustic Piano

I am playing my PSRE403 Yamaha keyboard through the Cl1 interface into Mixcraft 5.
I sang vocals into my SP1 mic, via Cl1 interface, into Mixcraft 5.
All mixing done in Mixcraft 5.

I created a Soundcloud account, although I'll still post my bandcamp account too since it looks like Soundcloud may put adds on some plays (not sure). I'm not sure how to get Soundcloud to start playing automatically like some of you have. I learn...I hope.

Anyway, here is:

Come Back Home on Soundcloud

and

Come Back Home on bandcamp.

Thanks for any listens and comments.

Come Back Home

Oh love,
Now the rain is falling
Oh love
You've got no place to go

Oh love,
Can you hear me calling
Oh love
Calling you back home

Home is where you're safe dear
Home is where you're warm
Home is where love's waiting
At the door
For you to come home

Oh love,
You see your bridges burning
Oh love,
Don't cross them all alone

Oh love,
Now the wheels are turning
Oh love,
Turn your wheels back home

Home is where you're safe dear
Home is where you're warm
Home is where love's waiting
At the door
For you to come home

Home is where you're safe dear
Home is where you're warm
Home is where love's waiting
At the door
For you to come home

For you to come home

Your song started playing automatically for me over on SC, no problem. Maybe for you it didn't because you were already logged in?

Nice ballad, enjoyed the listen.

Seems SoundCloud is pretty random with ads. But, hey, jptjptjpt, this is a fun song. Well built --built to last. HA! I just tried to play it again, but gotta hear this ad first. Totally worth the wait. Here we go. The strings are perfectly subtle, but I can't find the vibes. Welcome home, man.


Enjoy whatever happens!

jpt,

A nice song. Tracks are nicely done and fit the tone of the song well.

Mix sounds good.

In all the times I've been on Soundcloud (a lot), I've never heard an ad...

Hello jptjptjpt,

Sweet melody, the sober arrangement is pleasant. The lyrics with this nostalgic side are sweet. Composition to listen to by the fireside.

Kindly regard

jptjptjpt,

God tune. Solid form and arrangement. I think mix has a bit more reverb to my taste, but works. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.
