Hi Folks,
 
The guitarist in my acoustic trio came over to the studio with a new song and I recorded his first and only take. I am interested in any feedback on the (simple) production and the tune in general. I recorded it using X2 with a Rode NT1a on vocals and SE Electronics SE4 on the guitar. I added some BReverb on each track and used a little vocal strip.

You know, that is a very well written tune. Not my usual style, but I like it. I am not sure I would have mixed it the same way, but this has a nice, sort of old school "folk" feel to it that works well.

The song is terrific, and the recording was so well done that you sounded like you were in the room with me.  Songs like this never go out of style.

you know what...this is my favorite track I've heard on this forum. It's a bit of a masterpiece in my opinion. Did you serve, or are you just able to write evocatively about this subject matter?

Hi folks,
 
Digi2ns - Thanks for the feedback;
 
twisted6s - Appreciate the listen;
 
foxwolfen - I tried to mix it like it sounded in the room, but more than happy for other suggestions;
 
James1213 - Thanks for listening;
 
Lynn - Glad to have your thoughts;
 
daryl1968 - Thanks;
 
Warrenlee - I will pass this on to the artist. I just set up the mics and hit the REC button. The songwriter hasn't served, but I believe he used some experiences of a relative for inspiration. He will be pleased with your comments.
 
All the best,
