My guitar cover of Wish You Were Here. First time recording the guitar.

[DarkSpirit05er]

Finally managed to hook up the guitar to the computer, it's rough though so the explanation I have for the noise in the recording is my stock guitar cable and that I'm using no interface, it's a direct connection between my amp and the mic port of my laptop. For the playing part, I'm not that good, but I thought I should record the first song I have ever learned, now it's also the first song I ever recorded.

Thanks. I'll also try to get a friend of mine to sing over it so that it becomes a decent cover.

Most of the bends were off so that's something for you to practice.

Also it's [B]REALLY[/B] quiet.

Yes, I'm aware of the quality of the bends. And about it being quiet, I can't record much louder because of the noise and it's only one guitar track for most of the time. It needs some drums.

Thanks for the cc

It's [b]insanely[/b] quiet, I had my mixer turned up to +12db and I still wasn't even getting -24db peaks.

Try post-production. The playing is nice though.

Still need to learn the basics of audio editing. I'm with Audacity by the way.

Don't worry, just look up some tutorials. You might also want to try Reaper.

It's a great DAW for the price.

[DarkSpirit05er]

I'll take a look into Reaper.

Came up with this, not proud of it.

Better than I can do, and I've had a guitar for six years.
