I wish lol. The sound is passable in the room but I would prefer sound proofing, unfortunately I can't afford to do it.

The keyboard is actually my moms. I finally convinced her to let me patch it through the system. Sounds great through the big speakers.

All I'm missing is a singer lol. Any good singer that can do my style of music would be good but I would like a female voice if possible.

What is your style of music? Give me a song that we've heard so I can get an idea what you would play.

Typically 80s big hair rock and metal. Here is a link to a cover I done of Neil Young's Rocking In The Free World.

If you decide to add soundproofing and also wish to record just be careful where you place it depending on what you use. I have been to places where the room had lost it's dynamics in being used to get a good recording. If you are wanting to dampen the room from others hearing you play then of course that is a bit different. I have made a few places over the years and in the last one I first made it so I was reasonably quiet from the neighbors and then added different sizes of auralex to "tune" the room. I have an acoustic Drum Kit...and a 8 pad digital midi trigger but because of the acoustic part I used some larger/deeper pieces to absorb some of the bass as well as the snare. I also added a monitor near the Drums so the drummer would still easily here everything going on as well as themselves. Thanks for Sharing!! ;-}

Thank you for the link. I could hear you but couldn't see you. Someone in the comments of the link said he couldn't see you either.

Its not so much wanting to dampen the sound from the rest of the house but I find the sound tends to bounce around a bit and would be nice to dampen some of it. Its a rectangular room which tends to be bad for sound reflection. Even just a couple of mats on the ceiling and walls would be good.

Good man, you don't forget about the drummer. Most set ups I seen, seems like the poor drummer gets left out lol.

thumbs up

Listening to it now. Did you track all this individually or? it really sounds great. I would love to put the vocals to it though I am sure you have someone a lot closer in store for that.
Definitely one of my favorite songs.

I never took a video, it was recorded on a multi track program and I just stuck a picture on it when I converted it to video.

The guitar is me but the rest of it was just a pre recorded backing track. I jam along with them all the time. Its not as much fun as a full band but with those tracks being digitally perfect, it improved my timing in ways I couldn't even comprehend before. Made me a better musician.

Track, did you see the movie Whiplash. If you haven't it's a must see for you. Excellent movie for someone who plays drums.
