MissouriPicker Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Actually bought a webcam yesterday. Wal Mart special 15.99. It had been 19.99. I tried doing some video recording with it. Never done my own video recording. Turns-out it has a mic in it and that's what I played into from about 3-4ft away. Not really good audio or visual, but you get that with me...Heard this morning from a friend that if I'd spent another 20 bucks I'd have at least gotten a cam with a decent mic....lol....anyway, this is it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkTqUJnoJG4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilliangirl Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Awwww, that's a great song Larry! I loved the lyrics too. Guitar sounds sweet and you have a really nice soft genuine voice, perfect for that song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 Thanks for the kind words, Karen. I sincerely appreciate them. That is pretty much what I do at coffeehouses, festivals, picnics, and retirement centers. About the fastest song I play is something like Runaway. And that's at about 3/4 the speed Del Shannon did it at. I figure if I slow it down I can play all the riffs up the neck and people watching will say "Wow". .......I really do like the acoustic sound. Probably going to get me a better webcam for better audio. This one's sound is pretty thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilliangirl Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I think you deserve a better webcam. There was a lot of hissing in that video and it masks your voice and the guitar notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duende Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I completely agree with Karen and you do deserve a better camera to do your music justice, having said that it never ceases to amaze me that if someone produces a quality tone, that it still comes through, even on a hissing camera! Great stuff, really nice. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

struma6 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Nice! Some nice writing there, too. If you want a killer USB mic, the Yeti is great!! Kinda big but really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely song, sweet playin' and singing. While I agree that a better mic, etc. is warranted, the hiss on this one was oddly soothing--like the sound of a great old song coming across the airwaves, reminiscent of early dreams and longing. Sigh... More, more!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
