A bit of flagrant plagiarism I'm afraid. I saw Doug Beaumier's version of Enchanted Sea on YouTube and I thought why not!!! Ukulele backing with genuine Sea recorded at Scarborough UK.
To play - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZbScrdHzMc
Hope you enjoy,

Mike, I like your videos a lot. What type of camera/sound are you using?

Thank you Bill for your kind comments.
Thank you David, the camera is not very good and needs replacing. It is an old Zoom Handyshare and the quality of the video is now looking its age. The Audio is recorded through a Yamaha Thr10 on its acoustic setting directly through usb into the computer. There is a stripped down version of cubase adapted for the Thr10 supplied with the unit. It works very well for recording. I recorded the Ukulele and other instruments separately into cubase. If you use backing tracks just load them into a separate track on cubase. I then record the steel guitar with the camera rolling and the audio running directly into the computer. When finished I just set the levels adjust the reverb if required and sync it with the video in windows Movie Maker. Movie Maker just about does the job, but it was free. Upload to YouTube and that's it really. The key is the Yamaha Thr10. great sound and ease of connecting to the computer.....also quite inexpensive and a great home amp.
Hope this helps,
Mike |

| Thanks Andy. There is a lot I don't like about the internet age, but to be able to go on YouTube and watch great players like Doug was priceless to me in trying to figure out how to play this instrument. It would have never happened without it! Mike |

Chet's was the version I first heard of this atmospheric tune:
