Hi Guys, I haven't posted any tunes in awhile and got inspired to record again. Have a listen. I've always been moved by the vocal harmonies in this tune and thought it might be a good tune to try on steel. I'm also open to any suggestions on improving my playing, don't be shy.  In My Room.mp3
BTW, I have the BIAB rhythm file for this one or an mp3 rhythm track. If anyone is interested just email me.

Andy, everytime I've clicked on the "In my Room" link it times out. Anybody else having this problem? I'm using Firefox.  |

Thanks for the encouraging words guys. I made the rhythm track with BIAB then imported it into PowerTracks and then recorded the steel dry and added some reverb. I'm still experimenting with this setup but I think once I get it all figured out I can make a much better soundin recording. Why is it you can play something with your eyes closed but as soon as you hit the record button it's one clam after another???  |

Andy,
Excellent, I'm a big Brain fan and you did a great job on one of his best songs. Please do some more BB's songs. How about 'till I die'

I used BIAB to create the rhythm track which I then imported into PowerTracks on my laptop. I've got a line from the preamp out on the back of my Nashville 112 to the line in/mic input on the laptop and another line from the headphone jack on the laptop to another amp so I can hear the BIAB track while I record my Sho-Bud track with a dry signal. After I record my track I use the mixer section of PowerTracks to add some reverb and whatever else I like. It's a Pretty basic recording setup. I'm kinda new at this so I'm still experimenting with input levels and mixing but hope to get a better recording with more practice.  |

Danny Gatton cut a nice version of this, and it was the last song Tammy Wynette recorded... as a duet with Brian Wilson. nice one Andy!

| Thanks again guys. Love your recording Larry. One thing recording has taught me is that I need to practice more without any effects. Little problems with intonation and blocking can be hidden behind effects. Recording is an awesome tool for gauging your progress too. |

Danny Gatton, known primarily as a guitarist recorded "In My Room" on lap steel on his CD "88 Elmira Street".... A very nice cut....JH in Va.
