The PsychoVoyager Journal

So, I recorded four tracks of vocals for the choruses (no corny choruses?) and a bit at or near the end of the song. These were sung. Each chorus is recited twice. While I did that on the first track, the "harmonies" were recited once and then copied and pasted for completion. I also used the same recorded harmonies for the last chorus and repeated them untill the end. A great help in the whole process was remembering to use the "E" key to place the edit cursor where the mouse was in Ardour. Something I neglected to mention in the last post. Some of the loops (drums, guitars, keys) were longer or shorter than they should'a been, so simply using the fill track option on the menu (after right-clicking on the track) wasn't helpful. I had to place each repeated phrase at the begining of each bar or measure it belonged. It wouldn't surprise me if there were a quicker workaround for this. I hope there is and I'm simply just not aware of it, yet.

I started this session around 2 am and finished it near 3 am. Was too tired to blog it then so here we are now.

The song as it stands now.
