Thanks for taking the time to have a listen. :wink:]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379030 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379029 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 05:30:12 +0000 Sunday Songwriters Group andygetch https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379029 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379023 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 18:21:17 +0000 The piano and bass part certainly come through sounding genuine. It has a "live" feel to it. Yes, this one was musically more straightforward, so it helped make it come across easier. Thanks for taking the time to check it out. :D
I played that "Second Thoughts" song at a song circle last night and invited everyone to jam on it. Very cool. Sounds like you have a healthy outlet for your songs :D]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379023 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379019 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 16:15:37 +0000 It looks like you have a great family there. I can imagine all the kids jumping around to this song. The piano and bass part certainly come through sounding genuine. It has a "live" feel to it.
I tend to like live music, I find it more accessible. That's probably why I like playing the uke mre than guitar too. I've been to shows and concerts where the music is suplimented with recordings, loops and gizmos. A little bit of that goes a long way with me.
I could imagine a group of people jamming on this "Show It If You Know It " song.

This one still might not be your cup of tea, but I'll share it as it was a simpler song to put together yesterday for a kid's song....software drums, bass, and piano......live voice and guitar

...but I'll admit I was a bit put off by a talent show I attended recently where the majority of the "acts" were videos and music tracks.....I was wondering if performing live is a dying art in this multimedia age.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379011 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379000 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 17:15:44 +0000 Sunday Songwriters Group John Sargent https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/paged/2/#post-379000 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/#post-378987 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 04:08:38 +0000

This is using the program EZKeys for the piano part

I copy and pasted the midi bass line into EZKeys and it generated the chords and rhythms for the piano.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/#post-378987 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/#post-378976 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 16:00:00 +0000 http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11604236 is a link to a second song "Counting Raindrops" Yes, the piano part there is a better conversion from guitar to piano using Melodyne.
I didn't care for the conversion in http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=11959985, I didn't either. I was on my last day of the free trial, so I thought I'd play around with it, but it's not an "easy" program to work with....and if not done right, the result is........second best :P]]> Sunday Songwriters Group jamestoffee https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/#post-378976 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg10-week51-second-best/#post-378974 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 15:46:08 +0000

I haven't really worked out what kind of strumming converts best.

Here is Second Best with piano emphasized, but I like the other recording better, which would mean I like this second best, which fits the theme for the week :roll: :lol:
