RubyStarfire got me a new toy! He got me a Samson Go Mic to use when recording songs. Before, all I had was the crappy little mic on the front of the computer; now I have something to make higher quality recordings, and it's portable! Here's a video I made while experimenting with the new mic *ignore the man touching me, I'm the one who's important here ;)*.
I did a little tuning exercise to make sure my voice was in good shape followed by some random playing and fingering exercises. The mic was inside to catch the full range of my singing, but I think it caught too much of my range. I will continue to experiment with different positions and see how well they work.
The mic was real easy to setup, I just plugged it into the computer and voila! There was one slight hiccup, the computer decided it was a sound out device as well as sound in, so it tried to use the mic as a speaker. It also comes with music editing software that can record audio and add audio to video, but unfortunately it doesn't capture video as well :(
Recording the video was a lot of fun. It's been awhile since I've been done a recording and I hope to do many more in the upcoming months. Follow my progress with new music here!
