Got this new dirt-cheap stereo mic: Yoga EM-8 ..

placed the mic between the 12-string and my piehole ..... I discovered that there already is a mighty fine version of Blackbird here so I almost dropped this, but I just wanna know what you think of the mic.... I think I'll stick to the buildt in for most of my work ... but maybe for live acoustic jams .... well, I was further away from the mic than I use to be while singing so .... rambling rambling .....

G.

Better volume now !!!!

This is a song...........About how a Twelve string should be played!!!!!!!

I Love Mine....But it dont Like me....

It breaks my nails, and tells me to stop before I make an Ass of Myself.

Tried it on the robot track but it didnt work........

The feel of this track is majestic as ever!

You have a knack for creating Great songs.!

This song says you were a cowboy in a past life! 8)

Peace

Pie hole.....!?!

Means somthing special in East London!

P.M me for an explanation!

But i hang it in the pie hole for every acoustic recording. . . You get a great bass sound.

Always takes up two tracks though for one take!

I can guess from Southern California.

Love the aggressive 12 string sound!

I would turn up the vocals a little, but the mic is great sounding :)

Great job!
If you loose track over a chord progression, play as fast as you possibly can. Nobody will know. Thats how they invented bebop.

Dude! Nice Twelve Twanger! The Mic sounds great - my $5 Sony will be in any day now. Hopefully it sounds as good!

Excellent "Test"

This is also a mighty fine version of Blackbird and the guitar sounds great as well. You did a great job here, Geir.

Cheers,

Sweet version.  Once again, your voice compliments perfectly the guitar line.  Man you are one cool dude Geir.

Thanx 0jh0, yeah I could have mixed the vocals higher. This was just a quick test tho' , just the raw recording ... no fx in,  "live" setting  and a dash of reverb on the mastering.

I guess this is one of the (many) times I walk in the borderland of my vocabulary  :-\ To me the the pie-hole is where the pie goes in  8) If there is other uses of that word ( and there obviously is ) yes please PM me so I can avoid future blunders !!  ;D
