I can't record until I get over this cold, but hopefully it won't be much longer now...

Sure. I hope you feel better soon. Thanks for signing up!

Don't laugh at the tune I picked.. I didn't plan it! I swear! It just popped into my head and seemed to fit. I didn't even figure out what the tune was until I finished recording it :lol:

lovely recording! thank you.

Well, it's been a while...and I've done some digging. I'm planning to record a Southern gospel album in the spring with some guys whom I've played. Along the way, I found The Carter Family's "Wildwood Flower." I want to do "I'll Twine 'Mid the Ringlets" the PD version of the song...

I've created a Magic Window in the first post. I'll PM you directions on how to edit it, Linda. For the mo...

Would there be any problem with transposing a song to a different key? I entered the "Moustache" song into GarageBand as written, but the highest note is just on the edge of my range, and I can't really sing it clearly. Shifting it down a step helps just enough, but I'm wondering if doing...
