    Michmuch - Here's a Whiskeyhounds video that I recorded from TV in 2005. You might like it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIC1D3leixI

    Michmuch - I think that's the best I can do on the mix. What do you think?

    It sounds good, I like it, way softer than the original, wich is very interesting too. Hard to get dynamic mixing on Bandhug, a compression is really missing in my opinion. I like this collab!!

    @Michmuch: I am very happy with how this turned out. IMO, your guitar part is spot on all the way through. Any timing fluctuations were easily corrected by adjusting the vocal timing to match the guitar precisely. Together they sound perfect now, in terms of timing. I don't know much about audio engineering, or what compression actually does, or why it may be needed in some cases. Sounds like you know more about that stuff than I do. Maybe Bandhug will eventually add compression support under the wrench. It still says "Coming soon" there. But anyway, I thought you played your part beautifully, and it blends seamlessly with the vocals. This song is an old favorite if mine, and I really appreciate your willingness to learn and practice it for this collab. There are other Whiskeyhounds songs I'd love to try here as well. Many are not on Youtube, but I have mp3s of all those early CDs from back in the day. I might introduce you to another one pretty soon, and see if you're interested. :-)

    @Michmuch: Unfortunately, I can't sing low notes very well. My voice becomes weak in the lower register, but I love the song, so I had to try. :-)

    Copycat, guitar uploaded, let me know what you think. Not an easy one, the tempo moves a lot. I've sent you synch and level suggestion (-00:00.064)

    Michmuch - You've done it again, my friend. I think it's perfect! Thank you, once again for taking the time to work out the guitar part. Sounds like you got the finger picking down. I'm going to tweak my vocals a bit, and work on the final mix. Should be published later today. Thanks for accepting the invitation!
