Finally worked out how to upload files using 4shared.com, a free archive space. So, here's first picture of my little corner of Cambridgeshire ... my studio (just a collection of much loved gear in a corner under the stairs!) ;D www.4shared.com/file/56176481/9e0afb00/Studio_1.htmlHere's one of yours truly in search of the lost chord:  www.4shared.com/file/56177031/c24bed72/Rainbow_3.htmlNow, I've sussed out this uploading lark and just found a way of using my BR1200CD Digital Recorder that I can work with ... I shall get around to posting some Fusion recordings in mp3. Cheers ... Graham (aka Rainbow)  |

No computer! Radical!
Does Brian May know you have his guitar and sprayed it black?!

Is that a Japanese or Chinese Stratocaster?  |

I prefer the more 'hands on' approach of hardware rather than software Steve ... just use the laptop for transferring aifs and wavs and mp3s. It's taken a year or more for me to work out how to use the BR1200CD Digital Recorder!  I've only just started uploading covers of Pink Floyd & Free songs to a guitar forum just this last few days ... just for fun. These early efforts are rhythm and lead guitar, some 'iffy' vocals & piano played to a downloaded backing track of bass & drums.I am hoping to crack the mystery of how to build and record my own drum and bass parts ... then I can make quicker progress. Hope to post some Fusion mp3s soon though.  The Brian May guitar probably looks black ... it's actually a rather nice dark green though ... not the real thing, but endorsed by Brian. Graham |

jpvideo ... I joined up with the midi mart forum a couple of months ago and learned how to edit midi files that I could use as backing to play along to with the guitar ... this progressed to playing along to mp3 backing tracks downloaded from the net ... this spurred me on to learn how to get my own recorded efforts to mp3 ... the midi mart forum suggested 4shared.com for free web space to upload the files and post links on the forum on their 'members stage' ... so finally 'I'm plugged in' LOL However,you have to be a member of that forum to access that area of that site ... but if it's OK with the Fusion forum I'll post links here to my 4shared.com webspace and you can download from there: www.4shared.com/file/55882358/4ce260bf/Alright_Now.htmlwww.4shared.com/file/55883331/dbd818f8/Wishing_Well.htmlwww.4shared.com/file/55879121/2caa8a62/Time.htmlwww.4shared.com/file/55823552/5ab68ad/Shine_On_You_Crazy_Diamond_pts24.htmlThe first 2 are Free covers ... just rhythm and lead guitar + piano on the Fusion for the Paul Rodgers vocal part (no way am I going to try to sing like him) LOL to an mp3 bass & drums backing track. The last 2 are Pink Floyd covers ... "Time' is just rhythm and lead guitar and fills to an mp3 backing track with bass, drums,f/x and some nice backing vocals ... 'Shine On' is Rhythm & lead guitar and some very nervous first time ever vocals from yours truly to an mp3 backing track of bass, drums and some synth. It's all just a bit of fun really ... Cheers ... Rainbow:) |
