“Sky Light” - Acoustic Instrumental Rock

[jcub]

”Sky Light” began as a vehicle to test a new acoustic preamp (LR Baggs Para DI) on my Dragonfly Nylon String Tapping Acoustic guitar. I recorded the guitar track to a click and decided to add drums and a new Soma Flux synthesizer (think next generation theremin). The cover photo was taken at Bethany Beach, Delaware.

That's some fancy picking there partner. Love it! Keep 'em coming. Hey, I did a tribute to your Chapman Stick tune. It inspired me. So thanks for that. I used Orange Tree's virtual. I thought it sounds decent enough.

Thanks very much! With the Dragonfly guitar it is all tapping - my picking skills leave a lot of room for improvement! I will look for the tune to check it out. I demoed the Orange Tree Sample library and did a video for them using LinnStrument - it is a great library. The only other sampled Stick library I am aware of is in Trillian.

Performance and mix sound great, really nice depth while letting the guitar take center stage.

That's amazing what a guitar can evoke! From experimenting with the guitar,
you've created an instrumental that perfectly suits the sky and the light of
heaven. What I particularly like is the purely acoustic performance, the
sound of each individual string! Powerful song!
