You recorded the sound of your voice and derived midi instruments of that raw material? (sorry, probably dumb question, maybe you won't even understand it) > cutting the lower frequencies that the mic tended to boost you can speak at a bigger distance from the mic, like 10cm and more. I also used to sing very close to the mic but with some distance, the raw sound is much better. You get rid of the "proximity effect" and need less EQ later on. Well, my 2c. I'm not an audio recording engineer. Do you play with a keyboard? I mean a MIDI piano keyboard. I ask because what you, and others on the list, do with a linux box is impressive. And I wonder why I can't do the same. Maybe input tools I sometimes think. Tools matter a lot. Or maybe it's just talent. :-) Thanks for sharing those details, it's very good material! The linux audio scene is amazing... _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
