"Brothers In Arms" ( with vocals! )

[Guest]

Another cover. Dire Straits this time. I think this a really beautiful song. DIdin't wan't to copy the lead exactly so I did kind of my own version of it.

First time I have tried to record my singing... hope it isn't all too bad.

Just updated it. Was something wrong in there but should be okay now!

Cool! I love that tune..you did it well!

Awesome guitar tone!! Perhaps a tad more gain..did you play that with a pick or with fingers like Mark does?

Cause if you play with fingers instead of a pick the sound has more "growl"..which pwnz

Thanks alot SS!

I was a little nervous posting something with vocals though

At first I tried recording it playing without pick, I really wanted to do it that way since it's Dire Straits. But I didn't get the right feel to it and it didin't cut through enough, guess I don't have enough skill playing with fingers. Should throw the picks away for some time and practice more without it

One of my favourite DS tunes, vocals were just fine - especially for the first time. They're mixed well to, they sit on the track in a very similar way to the original.

Good stuff!

Thanks! Good stuff if they very okay, escpecially since I have such a crappy mic. A pop filter would have helped alot, I have to go get one of those!

I'll probably be able to improve the whole vocal recordings in the future as I learn more

Vocals seem a little distant, the whole track sounds great though! And the vocals are good for your first time recording them.
