Finally! Progress!

This week I accomplished recording the guitar instrumental part to a Life That's Good thanks to Aric Rhodes! We originally made the instrumental part the week before but we did not have a guitar capo therefore we had to re due it. Also, this week I worked with my Music Tech teacher Mr. Gallagher to record the instrumental part to my original song. This week we hope to accomplish adding in a base and a melody part for my voice to sing along to.
Furthermore, I am also becoming more and more comfortable with Logic X Pro, I now know how to copy, paste, delete, and add effects. This may seem minor but I couldn't do any of this before. The program is also more intuitive than you would think too. 
I am still not quite on track with my time line but I am still making daily progress therefore, I should be able to catch up with it. By the end of our two and a half day week I hope to have a complete recording of A Life That's Good on soundcloud. Also, I would like to at least add a bass part to my original song and be able to get parts of my voice recorded.  This week we also worked on tie dying shirts and focusing on our Kick Starter incentives (If you are confused read early posts).

Week Two of The Project

I recently learned that my timeline did not give me enough time to finish a project. For instance, this week was a four day week and I was sick for one of them. Therefore, I was not able to complete my project this week. I am going to restructure my timeline so I have more time and it is more realistic. When I first developed the timeline I was a little bit over ambitious. My current timeline will be as follows.....

November 22 - Have "A Life That's Good" up on youtube. This includes learning the song and having Aric learn how to play it too this will take three days. I will record it using Youtube in two days.December 6 - Have "Flicker" posted. This includes having Mr. Gallagher remember and play the piano and record the vocals via Youtube. This will take a few days and putting it on sound cloud will take one. January 2 - Have new material on youtube. I need to finish wiring the song and work with Mr. Gallagher to write the piano portion. Writing the sng will take a week and then writing the piano portion will take four days. Then it will be record  in one day on youtube. Also, I would like to put it in the sound cloud, which will take one day. January 23 - Have another original song online. I need to write a song and work with Aric on finishing the song. Then post it using Youtube. It will take a week to write the song. Two weeks to write with Aric and then uploading it will take a few days.

First week of the project

This week I am edging towards having my first cover up on YouTube. I am finding out that this was not as easy as I thought. Firstly, I had to wait for someone else to learn the song, which was different because I have only relied on myself. Therefore, installing that trust I am finding out is just as hard. But for the most part things are going well. I have the quitat on Logic Pro X and am getting vocals up soon. Then I will be able to play the instrumental in the background while I sing and then can post that video to YouTube. Therefore, I am doing pretty well and the timing is pretty good I might have to go into next week but I am determined to get this project finished by Wednesday.
