Title: Visions of Johanna - Dylan cover
Post by: hooper on July 19, 2018, 05:34:28 AM
Have been playing around with this for much of the last month or so, including 3-4 total do-overs.
So with respect I offer this as a small tribute to the troubadour, the poet and philosopher...Bob Dylan.

Thanks for listening,

Great performance. I love how you have mixed the tracks. You got a great balance. Interesting that you have the vocals panned to the left channel. Was that a homage to the original?

I think you got it right in the end. Well done for persisting. It is a great recording.

Yes. Guitars, bass, keys, harmonica, electronic drums, vocals...

Actually no intent to pan vocals to Left.  However there is some processing on the vocal with an Automatic Double Tracking fx that may be creating what you are hearing (?)  It clones the signal and then sends copies to far R and L with a little bit of delay.

what is exactly this effect, is it a VST plugin or not?

Genuine.

Beautifully played and sung, hooper - all the instruments sit well in the mix, and with great clarity. Not usually a Dylan fan (I think I need to check out his catalog again), but I loved this!

Very well done, Hoop.  All instruments played expertly and the production is rather brilliant, each instrument played with its

own rhythm and accents, all mixing together in a beautifully flowing piece.  Excellent vocals too.  I appreciate the effort you

put into your work, getting everything just right.  Well worth the effort.

This is not a Dylan song that I particularly remember, tho it does ring a bell.  But Dylan is the consummate song writer, and

I like this one very much.

I'm not familiar with this Dylan song but it's a good one.
Your a talented guy to pull all these instruments together.
A cool recording and performance, well done.
