Recording updates from today!

Well....  I survived!   When I finished my recent three hour session I was really  a  bit bummed.   
  • Did I  expect that this would be easy?
  • Am I putting too much pressure on myself?
  • IS there even a chance that this session is going to be a success?
 You know how we are always harder on ourselves than anyone else.   I want this project to be so great due to all of your support and encouragement that I think I was putting a bit more pressure on myself than was to be expected.   When I got done I really didn't know what to think.  Part of me was thinking I just had wasted a lot of time and effort.  Playing solo trumpet is like playing the circus.  Well,  there are no clowns in the studio... which is fortunate as I get a little freaked out by clowns ;)

I tried not to listen to the clips but I wanted to check out the clips in case I had to cancel the project.    Like I said,   often I jump to conclusions.    I thought that they would be terrible and I'd never survive making this project.    To my surprise the clip I listened to sounded pretty good.  That was the low-fi Sony recording I made unlike the high quality studio setup that Ryan and Ed are recording with.   So....  we'll see what happens.  I'll have a lot of initial  listening,  critiquing,  crying,  and mixing.   It should be very exciting.

Thanks again for checking in.  I'll have up video and a sample audio soon!    Cheers,

T

Hey Trent,

We're always hardest on ourselves. I'm sure you sounded great!

Can't wait to hear it.
