So, I have pretty much finished my song. I will probably do a few more edits and really tweak the guitars with EQ and compression and maybe throw a bit more distortion on them- even though I used a pedal to start with, because you can never have too much distortion! I also DO NOT USE ANTARES AUTO-TUNE. Therefore, I sound ever so slightly out of tune, because the human voice is
not designed to be perfectly in tune like a sine wave. It is supposed to sound emotional, organic and beautiful. Which is hopefully what I have achieved. I think this is what I have achieved, at any rate.
I have also started editing the video portion of my music clip. This is sort of hard right now because I am missing over half of the footage I need- the parts where I play guitar and sing to the camera! Hopefully when that part is finished, life will be slightly easier in that regard.
Here's the more finished version with a rough mastering job done on it. I won't be posting a final mix until I put the entire video up here when it's completely done.
Good point about Auto-Tune! It sucks ass and takes all personality out of music!!!
ReplyDeleteI hate the fact that you don't have to have any talent these days (since they can auto-tune your voice to "perfection").All you need to do is have decent looks and put on "Alex Clockwork Orange" -make-up and you're all set! *coughKe$shacough*
