### Wrote a new song tonight and experimented with capturing a live performance of it.
So first off, I got a new guitar pedal. The Boss Synthesizer and oh my it's fun. As I was exploring the features I came up with this groove and just went with it (sounds familiar but i can't place it).
For this live run through, I'm using the synth pedal and a delay pedal all through my marshall valvestate tube amp. The guitar is my Ibanez hollow body. I love this guitar :)))))
My interface has room for two mics, so I've got my condenser for vocals in one and the other up against my amp. The DAW i use is Reaper. This recording is only 3 main tracks
Guitar: The only thing I did to my guitar was add Ozone 8 and use the Wide Synth preset to fill the song. I did add just a little lead guitar to the end of the song for fun.
Vocals: I used Waves HCOMP: tight vocals setting, Waves Vitamin vocal compressor, and the Greg Wells Voicecentric (where the delay and reverb come from)
Drums: I programmed myself with the Tony Coleman Brush Set and used it's built in reverb a little
I just did a quick master with Ozone 8.
I'm loving how this set up gave me a total 80's vibe.
I wanted to get this written and recorded tonight so my vocal performance is shaky and i wrote the lyrics quickly (usually i drag lyrics out for months hahaha) but the challenge was met ;)
Nothing left to lose, it's relieving
Every door I'm walking through, it's leading
Far away form here
Focused on the pain, I feel it
Can't blame it on a name, it's my name too
replaced with something new
further, further, further, just a little bit...
I can see the other side, it shimmers
The dark and light dance side by side
The rhythm calls me to the shore
