Oh, I used auto-tune. That may be why. I agree I probably shouldn't a done
that. I just don't think my natural voice sounds all that great without it. I
tend to really really! waver off key, bad! And I do mean, bad!
People've told me, don't be so hard on myself, but yeah. One thing I will say
is I tried shutting off my computer tower while recording the vocal to a track,
and man oh god! what a difference! I thought I'd already tried that, but maybe
not after all. I think that's part of what it was. my mike which is in a
stand sititng on my desk was picking up the vibration from the desktop computer
fan sitting not even a foot and a half to the right of the mike stand. When I
shut that system totally down, killing it's fan, oh my heavens! Still not
quite? the sound I want, but man is it getting closer. What is you all's
experience with the fans in those old white macbooks? I hear they are barely
even to a real sensitive mike, even audible at all. Your real deal breakers
are more probably with those desktop towers.
Chris.

Hi Chris,
The vocals would come through more smoothly with less vocal processing. I
don't know what you used, but the inflections and some of the formant sound
artificial. But again, the song carries the weight via the story. Smiley!

Shawn,
You say you have heard better productions. Can you elaborate on this? I'd
like to get this as pollished as I can. Is there anything you'd recommend that
I do that may possibly help either in ProTools itself, or just vocal technique
wize?
Feel free to write me off list, if you think it's more appropriate.

Dear Chris,
I didn't have time to read your previous email lacking the link you have
provided in this one. But I did now click on the link for this song.
As I bitterly weep, I am writing this email to you, or to who ever wrote
this song. Admittedly, I have heard better productions, but I have not felt
this much emotion or wept like this in years from a song. Please don't
misunderstand my comment, it is meant to convey, that the most important
component of any great song, it the ability to invoke deep emotion in the
listener. Congratulation!
At this current cross road of my life, this song has struck the ultimate
cord of my heart. Young parents, and my children won't fully understand right
now, but if and when, one day they walk this walk, they will cry too.
All I can say is thank you, from an empty nest dad..!
Take Care,
Sean
