Hello
I recorded most of this lovely tune by the band The Elected yesterday, and finished it this morning. Everything is recorded by me, first putting out a scratch, again with the feature on the Micro BR where you record from the guitar in and mic at the same time. I started adding instruments, and replaced the original track with a new vocal track. Everything is recorded with the built in mic, except for the drums (using the line-out, they are electronic) and the electric guitar (built-in amp simulator). Hope you like it.

Guitars sound really good and your voice has a lot of character. I find the off beat drumming to be a little bit distracting from the overall melancholy feel of the song. I'd love to here it without drums or with a more obvious snare beat on the 2 and 4. Your post reminds me that I have the first Elected album and I haven't heard it for quite some time. I think I will listen to it today. Great choice for a cover sq51.

Thank you guys!
Yeah, I must say I'm not the best drummer, and certainly not the best person on keeping time. But I'm really glad you like my voice, that's the part of my musical ability that I get the happiest from getting good comments on, so thank you for that. But I must say that this is almost exactly the drum-beat that I had in mind when I recorded the song, so it turned out like I had in mind.

Why would you even think your voice was anything less than good, it's got character just like Gritts said , and very tunefull
