-Recorded on Garageband

-Drums on two tracks played on computer keyboard. Kick and snare on one and hi hat on another.

-Bass is my Telecaster

-Guitars, bass and psg are all usb'd direct from Mustang III V.2 amp.

-Voice recorded on built-in Mac Book Air mic.

-I used the panning to create some stereo.

-Tried to use some eq, but I don't quite understand eq, so I scrapped it for now.

That sounds good. I know the time it takes to produce this, and it's a mental exercise to plan out how you're going to do it. Sounds like you've got a good process going. Hope you'll do more.

For a low budget recording, it’s really good. I’m surprised how well the vocals sound through the built in mic. Thanks for sharing.

Bob,

I enjoyed listening to this. Your voice is easy to listen to. Nice arrangement.
