It's hard, Adam. I don't like to listen to ad hoc recordings of vocal stuff much. If it is something I'm going to do again (a band piece for example) I try to be really disciplined about setting aside the initial cringe reactions and listening specifically for what's good and what isn't, and then sussing out what exactly made the good stuff good and the cringe material not so good. But for jams, it seems more satisfying to enjoy the memory the moment. Last summer someone came up after a performance to report how moving it was. When I got around to listening to a recording, all I could hear was how tired my voice sounded and where I had run out of breath (with the subsequent pitch wobble). I should have just gone with audience reaction... On Dec 2, 11:10 am, Mando Chef <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey all, > I recorded a jam from the other day.
