...now, if I can just synch the vocals to the music...I'll have it up!!!

Okay, I just totally do NOT understand that statement, but I've heard other people say that before. How in the HECK are you recording that the vocals & music would not be in sync?  I don't get it?? Gawd, I hate being confused.  :(  Audacity must be VERY different from CEP. ??

Anyhow, can't wait to hear you... so I'm gonna pop over to the other side and see if you've gotten one subbed.  :whistle:

What happens is that people record their vocals seperate from the music, ending up with 2 track, one containing the music and one containing the vocals. After that they add the vocal effects, line up the 2 tracks and then post it. It's a lot of work, and you don't gain anything but a lot of wasted time.

I never record like that, and I take neither do you. I record the music and vocals live at the same time in the studio.

Dave, I didn't see a sub yet!!

That's because I couldn't make it work well enough to satisfy me.  Frankly, it SUCKED!!!

Oh, but that's a given when you record at home to sub online doncha know. You'll NEVER be satisfied when you listen back to your song. Trust me, just get it recorded- DON'T sing it a bunch of times over, just once or twice, then save it..... take a deep breath, count to 5..... and click the "submit" button.  :yes:

Then, after you listen back, it'll be too late- people will have heard it...... and there's naught you can do about it.  :D

And- personal opinion- you're NOT gonna sound as good recorded onto your PC as you do live. I know I always sound better live, and have had several people tell me so. Ya just gotta suck it up and sub what you get. Strange..... but true.

And hurry it up already, sheesh!!

Patience, oh gorgeous one!!  

I'm still at work for a while longer...I'll try again when I get home  :hug:

And... is it gonna be a song from a "one hit wonder"?  LMAO  (just curious, that's all)

I may have to see if I can talk one of our KJ's into recording me live at the bar...it might be easier...

By the way........ I visited your photo gallery. Nice pics.  :yes:

I totally record like my vocals on a seperate track while playing the music using Audacity but they've always been in-synch. And it's pretty simple for me to use too. Usually going to a studio everytime I want to record a song is just waaaay to expensive.

I think it's the difference between MP3 and WAV...my voice racording lagged further and further as it went.
