Golden Slumbers - solo Acoustic Beatles cover by des0free

[des0free]

This is just me and my Taylor GS mini guitar recorded together with the Zoom H2n field recorder in "2 channel surround sound mode" (it records in 360 degrees with 5 built in mics and processes that down into two channel stereo; I sat on the side of the unit that has "mid-side" mic configuration which picked up most of the sound, but the x-y mics on the opposite side probably pick up a little including some reflected room sounds).

I imported the stereo track into Reaper and processed it with Waves plugins Q2 Eq, CLA vocals, API-2500 compressor, J37 Tape, L1+ ultramaximizer (limiter).

A lot of my playing out is a Acoustic set so I can really appreciate this nothing to hide behind with it is just guitar and vocal.  I love what you did with this song
Bravo

I think you did a great bit of work here. It sounds excellent in headphones. Guitar sounds pristine and well recorded too. Top job on the vocals too.

sounds like a cool device that Zoom....I am going to have to check that out...excellent recording...well played and sang

[Ferryman_1957]

Very nice cover, certainly nowhere to hide on this (and you didn't need to.....). The Zoom has worked really well and it's a great way of capturing a live acoustic performance like this without having to set up loads of mics.

Excellent version, voice and guitar Doug, I love the sound of the guitar...this Zoom H2n seems really excellent with its 5 integrated microphones..and then Taylor is Taylor

Bravo Doug
