Week 5-recording the vocals



This week me and my tutor recorded down the vocals which were fairly easy as i knew the lyrics off by heart but it took several takes before we got down a fantastic take afterwards we played around with and added some affects that being we used compressions reverbs and EQs however still we were limited down to 2 tracks as in the 50s.  Finally after mixing everything down together it was time to get our record by any means necessary. Unfortunately we didn't have a record scratcher but who would? So we saved it to a memory stick to try and burn it on a cd however i got home and tried but it wouldn't let me so on my next session i will see if i can get my record scratched to a cd. The session went really well and i thurally enjoyed singing "hound dog" it was a privilege to sing one of the kings greatest rock en roll hits it was nice basic and so simple to sing. So if you happen to do the fifties as any music project id recommend some Elvis?  Also as well as patting myself on the back for working hard towards the project I'd like to thank my tutor and the studio owner for putting their input in the song and i would be honoured to play with them again for our future hits so thanks guys. I believe that ive learnt an awful lot of history of music from this project and i can't wait in till we start our next project THE 60S!
