Some guitar recordings
Hi,
I want to show you some of my guitar recordings.
I used the following software:
- Ardour for recording
- Sometimes Hydrogen for drums
- Sometimes rakarrack for realtime effects
Would be nice if you could leave some feedback. I always have an open ear for suggestions to improve.

Re: Some guitar recordings
Hallo.
"Treasure Hunting" is very good. It could stand on its own or have maybe some subtle synth/atmospheric parts added to it for coloration. Really very good. I like it much. As is, and as a base for something more developed.
"Lost in Mind" is also quite good. Although perhaps just a tad less focused. "Amy and Emil" has a very good use of sounds.
Those are the ones I listened to so far. Some rhythms sound a bit like mediterannean
On the recording side they all sound pretty good.
Hope you find people to make music with in Berlin !
Cheers.

Re: Some guitar recordings
I just let these play in the background - very nice work and an interesting variety.
I see you're in Berlin, so might we see you at LAC2018?

Re: Some guitar recordings
Hey, thanks for your kind words.
@folderol: Looks interesting, when I'm not at holidays I'll give it a try.
@42low: Nothing special, just plugging the guitar into the line-in jack of my onboard sound card. Sometimes I use a Digitech RP55 for effects and as a preamp. The only thing you should care about is getting the amplitude not to high in order to keep the signal undistorted.

Re: Some guitar recordings
Thanks for sharing these! Love the variety of textures you are getting and all the gypsy scales (melodic minor? I don't know my modes/scales ). These tunes have very song-like structures--do you plan to add some lyrics?
There is a lot of hiss in the recordings. I am guessing it is from using the onboard sound card or the Digitech. If you want to get rid of this, consider using noise-repellent. It works great.

Re: Some guitar recordings
@ufug: Thanks for your hint, I will definitely try this plugin next time I record something. I guess this noise come from the acoustic simulation of the RP55.
Unfortunately, I'm the worst singer you can imagine, but if I will find someone who are interested in putting some lyrics on top it would be great.
@42low: What do you mean with not plugged? Do you use a microphone to record your amp?

Re: Some guitar recordings
Hi, thanks for your explanation.
Thing is, I don't have either a guitar amp or microphone. I'm using a normal hifi system to amplify my guitar which does not really change the sound, I guess. At the moment there is not enough money and space there to buy an amp and mic.
