Just get the tracks in the folder and we’ll be golden. @Shaky_loves_banjo @Michael_Mark @Flatpickin_Libby @Dragonslayer I would like to suggest a band name, since I’m pretty sure we’re all homeschooled we should be “The Homeschooled Hooligans”.

Ok bud, Who are you to suggest i’m homeschooled? I just finished college
ok ok, just kidding. In reality i should be just finishing grade 12 this year… but i quit halfway through last year. Since i’m planning to be country boy not a scientist my Dad didn’t think it was needful that i finish all my school. And in canada here, you don’t have to finish you school, yhou just have to be ‘in a continuing place of education’. So right now, i’m technicaly in a co-op at work but am getting payed for it. I just consider my workplace a continued place of education. Besides, i do learn something new there every day.

You know, It seems a lot of people have asked to here me play but i just haven’t gotten around to making a youtube account. And i don’t have my own phone so I have kinda shied away from using my mom’s phone but maybe i will eventually do it.

Hey guys, I’m having some troubles recording this thing. No, this time it’s not that I can’t play it well enough or I get recording nerves or anything like that. Rather, I cannot get the mic to pick up decent audio. If I use the built in mic, the banjo sounds soft and like it’s underwater or something. If I use the cheap external mic that I have, the audio levels spike like crazy and the banjo sounds like the most piercing instrument ever. I’ve played around with compression and stuff like that… any ideas? @mharrison43 @oaklymaple @Timothy_L @Flatpickin_Libby

Can you adjust the gain on your external mic?

I don’t think so. Oh well, I’ll probably just wait till later tonight and see if I can use the mic my dad uses for work. Hopefully this is a mic and not a device issue.

If it’s pretty cheap, it’s probably a mic issue

Is your room dampened? If not try hanging some blankets on the walls

I haven’t recorded my part yet but I plan to use my external Zoom mic. It always sounds great. I’m going to try to do it this week.

I would add some distance if you can’t adjust the gain that about all i can suggest. Also y’all don’t have to do any editing I’ll take care of it. Just get me the raw audio files.
