Your Eyes Finally been able to record something with my own vocals again! I wrote this a few weeks ago but I've not been too well, so I was glad to finally be able to actually put the song together.
I have found that there it is so much harder to put together a song with a vocal recorded at home than the vocal samples I've been working with. My singing is improving but I still struggle with pitch control but it's also the other sounds in the room which is making it harder to mix it all. I'm not sure if the microphone is part of the problem as well. I've used a De-Verb plugin on this one but it's hard to get the balance right between removing the sounds in the room and taking away from the vocal performance. Any tips for improving recordings at home will definitely be appreciated!
I mixed this in Studio One and used the CLA Vocals plugin and a saturator plugin on the vocals as well as Waves Tune for pitch correction. I also used Waves AudioTrack on the instruments and the vocal, I do like that plugin for compression and EQ.

Lyrics:
When I look right through the crowd
I can see that you're standing alone
And you're looking right back at me
I take the time to catch my breath
And find the courage to take a step
Cause somehow I know we're meant to be
Now that I've found you
I know that I see
When I look in your eyes
I hope that I Find
The future in your eyes
I can leave the past behind
As I move across the room
I don't know what it is that I should do
But so much is said without words
I can't picture the words to say
But it doesn't matter anyway
Cause you take my hand and speak first
Now that you've found me
I hope that you see
When you look in my eyes
I hope that you Find
The future in my eyes
And you can leave the past behind
When I look in your eyes
I hope that I Find
The future in your eyes
I can leave the past behind
And when you look in my eyes
I hope deep down that you find
The future in my eyes
Cause when I look in your eyes
I know what it is that I find
I can leave the past behind
When I look in your eyes
I hope that I Find
The future in your eyes
I can leave the past behind
