I have recently upgraded the studio in my living room (hmm maybe that's why I'm single again.... lol) and have a couple of songs I want to offer for comment.
One is by Elton John and the other by Billy Joel. I'm working on a 10 song CD of all Elton and Billy covers.
Here is the equipment I used. Shure KSM-32 mic plugged into a Mackie Onyx 1220 mixer with firewire interface, a Dell Dimension 8400 with Traction 2 software and dynaudio BM5A speakers.
I had nothing to do with the music. I just did the vocal, effects, and mastering since I don't have my Ketron yet to do the music w unique styles.
Also, in ur (hopefully honest) critiques keep in mind that both of these are first takes done within hours of setting up the studio since i don't know how to do the loop punch record thing yet. i may have to actually read the manual, lol.
