For this song I used BB for almost all tracks, except lead guitar and some keyboard pieces. Of course, I mastered each track individually, then mastered it. See if you like it...

Being BB, this is another cumbersome feature. How or where to provide a YouTube link? Well, I put it here.

Hi Wolfgang,

Welcome to the forum.

I really like this song! You have an easy-to-listen-to voice. The arrangement and production are so good.

Hope to hear much more from you. Again, welcome. Hope you stay for a while.

Take care,

Alan

Wolfgang...this is a lovely song...your vocals are really great (I do wish they were a bit louder in the mix)...your harmonies are very tight and mixed so well...the guitar line is super cool...like Alan I hope to hear more of your stuff and welcome to the forum...you're going to love it here!

Wolfgang, really nicely played and sung! Especially like the reverb drenched guitar accent. Everything sounds great to me. FWIW, there's about a minute of dead air at the end of your fadeout. Thought it was a false ending at about 4:20, but nope, that was it. Enjoyed your song!

Thanks for the message, Ron. The part you're referring to is just the length of the beat. Maybe I could have extended the reverb to better bridge over. I'll give it a try.

Thank you! I can't believe it, but I entered a wrong song title to my own song. Senility at last.
It should be "I'll be your LOVE, not man. I don't suppose there is a way to correct this?

Wolf, hmmm. This sounds different than the length of a beat to me. The song fades out at 4:22 but the audio track continues in silence until 5:29. Not a big deal, maybe there's something wrong with what I'm doing. THANKS again for posting the cool song!

Welcome to the forum and nice song man! Well done.

I also observe a dead zone from about 4:22 to 5:29, that's easily enough fixed in your DAW, just delete that dead zone.

As for your signature, just replace what you have now "I honestly don't know what Signature means in this context. Perhaps a short explanation or sample would help?" with what you really want to say. Most folks show the version of BiaB they have and maybe other software or a statement that means something to you. You can look at the signatures of others to see examples.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Nice to see some original instrumentation in this song. A lovely production all around.


Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Very Nice: The song, your vocals, harmonies, arrangement, build to the chorus, everything about this is excellent. My only observation is the mix seemed a bit distorted in my speakers, maybe just me ... but otherwise REALLY GOOD !!!

Welcome. Nice way to introduce yourself..



Just a suggestion......Use an audio editor to trim the silence at the beginning and ends of your songs.

Very nicely done, Wolfgang. I was loving it and groving to the feel and then those harmonies came in --WOW! Seems I get to hear moer from you right now. Hey, I love the grove of this one. Ron is right about the dead space at the end, but that's an easy fix. Unfortunately with YT you would have to delete this one and upload the fixed version. I'd let it as it is. People need dead space to collect their thoughts once in awhile. hehe


Enjoy whatever happens!

I did put a sound patch over the "hole" and I'll upload the song again - with the correct title crazy (can't believe I did that). Please let me know if this fixes that problem or not.

Man, I'm getting senile. I just realized that the long gap was at the end of the song. I have to see if YouTube has a feature that let's me cut the video off. Thanks again for pointing it out.

Thanks for the info, I'll try to do that.

Another question: How do I put a picture in my Profile. I see that some have done that.

Wolf, another thing you might want to consider to help your posts to be more understandable is when you want to publically reply to a particular individual's post, first hit "Quote" and keep the portion that you want to keep. This way, your new post will have the context of the post you are replying to.

Thanks for your reply, Elliott. I don't hear distortion on my end. I had a pair of BOSE desktop speakers, of which one started to slightly distort after falling over. Maybe something like that...?
