Great job

 

Thanks for checking it out!


Tracking these days is pretty easy and can be done so many different ways. Many guys use free s/w right on their PC's. A friend of mine can setup up a multi-track session at a rehearsal through some fire-wire deal before I'm through tuning up my guitars and the tracks come out perfect!. eek.gif

First of all let me say thanks! And yeah, Cmaj/Amin is your friend if you're trying to play keys and don't play keys. I'll venture into Fmaj a little and there are one or two more keys I'll risk on a limited basis but yeah, the white keys are very inviting.


As for the text, I used Windows Live Movie Maker and if you're on the Home tab there is a caption key that will up throw text that you can edit.


Let me warn you about this s/w though. I found that I couldn't save any of my work without crashing the program, very frustrating! I finally figured that I had to remove the music before saving the work. Removing the music let me save, then I could open the file back up without crashing the program and finish the video in more than one session. I lost a lot of time before I figured this out. Once you open the file back up it's a very simple task to add the music again and finish editing your video.

Good stuff, thanks for that. I used moviemaker to wed the song in my sig with an existing video, but couldn't figure out how to do much more with it. Sometimes I think my computer has been compromised in some way, I mean even on embedded Youtube vids I have to hit the Youtube button to play them. Anyway I appreciate your help with that, and like I say really liked your soundtrack and video.
