GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Alone In Boston-playing A Little Festival Gig

Posted by: ItsMe Jul 19 2010, 04:41 PM

Somebody allowed me to create some acoustic pollution at his club as an aftershow event of the "Tuebingen lauscht" singer/songwriter festival.

Here are some of the songs I played. All in all I played for about two hours and it was fun.

I listened to first video. I like it, especially guitar arrangement, I can't believe you can sing and play like that in same time.

Chris I just watched 1st video for now and had to leave a comment here man. Didn't know you were this good with one man band type of thing Excellent guitar arrangement, great singing and very enjoyable overall. I have recently (maybe a week ago) checked your Youtube channel and heard some funky version over your tune with pictures of Boston in the background (that was great by the way - and now I hear this? Totally opposite from what I was expecting from you but you did great man, really great stuff.
Will watch rest of the clips later today!

What kind of Voice effect are you using ? There is some sort of harmonizer going in every chorus

HI guys

thanks a lot for your kind words. I sometimes do this singer/songwriter thing in small bars in the little city I live in.
Pedja I use a Digitech Vocalist 3 with very mild settings. Just to add a second voice. Its a great device with a full preamp section and phantom power. It can add two voices however. It uses some proprietary Digitech technology that is supposed to analyze the chords played and then add the background voice in an appropriate interval. IT really works. You can hold a vocal tone play differnt chords and listen to how the vocalist changes from major to minor third or adds a forth or a fith instead. Sounds just great

Thanks a lot for all the info Chris. I will look up that device and check out the price for it. Seems like a great little thing for live performances.
