Life on the Open Waves
An original song I did in Open G and using Cubase to provide some strings etc. I know the guitar was a bit rushed but any feedback (good and bad) will be gratefully accepted. Considering some lyrics but it feels "nautical" to me
All the best
Ian

I agree with the nautical bit, I had visions of a gentle swell breaking on a beach. Very pleasant.

Now thats a stunning and relaxing tune.I can just listen to that and chill.
Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

That was great- are you going to add a melody line to it? I kept waiting for it through the whole song. Definitely put me in that warm, breezy, ocean kind of mood.

Thank you all for your kind words. C Shude, I intend to try putting a melody. I'd never used Open G Tuning before so the chords (whatever they are. There is a capo of the 4th fret so initially B something!!!) just kind of fell out. I just need to play about with it a little more
Ilpff
I recorded the acoustic (takamine) on my Tascam DPFX01 hard drive recorder through my condenser mic and added a small splash of reverb. I then transfered to my computer where I cleaned up the pops through Audacity. I then used Cubase and a midi keyboard to play violins, cello's and french horn using Edirol Orchestra. Sounds all very complicated but it isn't!!!! I then found a free seagull/wave mp3 sample from the net and stuck it at the beginning with some echo.

Appreciate the listens, Ian, and the compliments. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of melody you can come up with for this. I would think that you could do that part of it in standard tuning rather than opening? I've rarely used open tunings (I've got a hard enough time with standard!), so I'm not positive, but it seems like you could.
