So I decided to mess around on the acoustic. Did an acoustic cover for Touch The Sky. Vocals not the best. Might do an instrumental rather and get rid of the vocals.
Acoustic + Vocals:
Acoustic Only:
Original for the Competition, mixed and mastered by @ScottyDogg :
RodneyVikens Nice man! I loove the acoustic version.
Rodney, are you happy to share how you recorded your acoustic? Sounds epic
guidothepimmp I have no idea in what key it is. I just tuned my guitar until it had a nice open tuning I like. So probably open D or C. I will see if I can get the tuning again and grab a tuner to see what each string has been tuned too. Then I just played with finger shapes until I got the sound I liked.
For the actual recording I just recorded each part twice and in sections, except for the Guitar C (C for centered =) ), which is basically a single take of the verses and chorus and then panned centered. Guitar L and Guitar R supports Guitar C, each separate recorded. Guitar a L and a R is a harmony of sorts recorded twice, Guitar b L and b R is the high octaves you hear coming in at the end just to give it a bit of build up.
RodneyVikens awesome. Thanks mate.
Sounds great. I got some experimenting to do ?

I am greatly inspired by this album from the one and only, Myles Kennedy.
