Compusicians

Well, It's time to get to the music! Finally! My studio is set up properly. The CD's can be printed professionally. My marketing is in place. Now all I have left to do is make good music.

As I run into problems I'll share. And I solved a microphone problem by purchasing the Samson CO1u. It is a USB condenser mic. I'll give that a try. It should help solve my problem in the studio of my voice not mixing well with the music.

Also, I need a vocal booth (isolation booth). And I have come up with this plan (I'll warn you ahead of time.... I am considered by many to be like Lucy (Lucille Ball, only the male version)!

I noticed that my voice sounds pretty good in the semi truck. But in my studio, I sound like crap (K-Rhap) :) ... So, I thought about this and decided how good it might be to use the car I have in the garage! My 1963 VW is set to be my new sound vocal booth. My plan is to record the music in the studio. Burn it to CD. Then, play it on the CD player in the car (using head phones) and singing into my new USB mic connected to the laptop (which has a Soundblaster PC slotted card).

LUCY.... Okay, I can just see it now. I accidentally put the car in gear. I go through the garage door and down the drive into the street. I hit the neighbor's car and come to a stop. The police show up, and I sit there with my headphones on, in my underwear with a mic stand hanging out the window and my laptop blasting my song "Free Beer"! And this would be just a normal day for me folks!

Peace Out!
