Excactly, in that respect you would have to RECORD the so called Demo CD LIVE in One take AS IF YOU WERE DOING IT LIVE, which many DON'T do thinking a better studio sounding CD will get you the job......if you fluff it up with studio EQ Hijinks & then Cannot reproduce that sound Live in front of the client or audience you'll be in for disapointment every time. Plus you will NEVER show off your stage presence & entertainment ability on a CD. There is so much more regarding this topic that has not & will not be touched upon here. I actualy welcome people sending out Demo CD's ....I can't tell you how many jobs this created for me & how many clients told me how bad their CD's were,. I think I've said enough on this topic, but who am I?.
Good luck to all of you out there.
