Reverend Elvis<p>You shouldn’t judge all evangelicals.<br>They can make music, and they have some pretty daughters too. Unfortunately, they are traditionally sold in cattle auctions.

Eric 🇨🇦<p>Here’s a prelim rough mix of my bizarre 3-chord rockabilly protest 12-bar thing, “March Like Hell.” Gretsch 5422 was used for the 3 rhythm tracks, bass was Fender p-bass and banjo solo is a Gold Tone Cripple Creek 6-String Banjitar (same tuning as guitar). Drums are MT Power Drum Kit free plugin. Basic A-D-E chord fingering repeat progression with everything capo’d at the 3rd fret. Used slap delay on the Gretsch and 15ms delay on the banjo. Pedals on the Gretsch were Keeley compressor, TC Flashback delay and MXR Timmy for some very mild overdrive. 160bpm, 1:50 song length. Tracked some subtle chorus backing vocals tonight. Gotta listen tomorrow and see how it sounds before adding to the mix. <a href="https://c.im/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/recording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>recording</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/banjo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>banjo</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/gearsquad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gearsquad</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/songwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>songwriting</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/bass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bass</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a></p>
Eric 🇨🇦<p>Another basement evening in the music corner. Listened to the banjo track takes from last night’s session. Got a couple good ones. Tuning was fine. The mic placement and levels were set up just right too. Definitely works for the song. Tried 25ms of delay on the track. Sounds okay. I’ll try some test backing chorus oohs or aahs tomorrow night over the main vocal and see how that works. <a href="https://c.im/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/banjo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>banjo</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/recording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>recording</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/gearsquad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gearsquad</span></a></p>
Eric 🇨🇦<p>Basement session tonight. Tracking the pre-final verse solo part on this freaky rockabilly protest tune. Was going to use guitar, then thought I’d try banjo for an even weirder vibe. Channelling my inner Pete Seeger. A few years ago I picked up a used Gold Tone 6-string banjo off craigslist. It’s well built, but a bit quirky tuning. Very sensitive to getting out of tune. Tuners are good; likely the floating bridge, the tailpiece and neck joint with 6 strings is pretty intense. It’s gonna work, I think. Got it to hold tune okay, but tuning between each take. Put down a bunch of test tracks. Used the CAD Audio GXL1200 small diaphragm condenser pencil mic. Pretty decent sound. I’ll see what I’ve got tomorrow night. <a href="https://c.im/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/recording" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>recording</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/banjo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>banjo</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/gearsquad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gearsquad</span></a></p>
