Hey all, I am surprised I have time to do anything these days, with working so much, but while I was driving the other day a song hit me like a punch to the head. WHAM and there it was. So I got my grinder out and plugged it into the krystal audio engine (I'll always be loyal to Krystal ) and here it is. I hope you enjoy it.

A very catchy tune with a ethereal bent. Good stuff. Is that a single track before the transition at 4 minutes?

Good stuff. Congrats.

That was a nice tune, good work.

A very nice song, liked the vocals and an interesting story.
Good clear recording too!

How did you achieve the echo? Each time I've tried there's a definite audible transition spoiling the effect - yours is perfect!
I've been using Adobe Auditions for recording.

First off let me say thank you for the great replies from the forum.
To answer your question, No. It was a few tracks in all. I laid the rhythm guitar track first. I think it was a total of one round plus the 4 bars at the beginning. Copy and pasted the rounds until I had enough rounds to complete the verses+solo. Then laid the vocal track as one track, and then the final solo track and realized I had another round left to go. (one can get carried away with the copy/paste stuff ya know) So instead of cutting up the track I just copy/pasted the final verse to reiterate the freedom part and had the bright idea to repeat the last 2 bars to cement the freedom part. So I....yep....copy/pasted. Then it was time for the effects, so I played around with the rhythm first. Tried many effects and decided that just some reverb(classic plug in on the small room setting) was needed. The vocals seemed to be a little harder in the which effect(s) to use. However, I finally opted with the delay(classic plug in on the default setting). When it was all said and done I enjoyed what I had created. I would like to change the solo around a bit, but I'm not a great soloist. So I guess that is where it will stay.

I achieved the effect by accident actually. I just put it on the default setting that came with the plug in and this was the results.
