I decided that the easiest song that I knew was &#8220;La Paloma&#8221; in a smooth easy Beguine tempo, so I took a few minutes to find and document the registrations on the 8X that I liked.  I know this song by heart so it won&#8217;t be hard at all to record, BUT again, me being me, I am looking for ways to take my videos to the next level (that&#8217;s Jerry-speak for &#8220;uh-oh, I&#8217;m going to make things hard for me again&#8230; aren&#8217;t I?&#8221;&#8230; haha!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve spent some time working on that remote snake and setting up things to make the recording process easier for a one-man-show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2265\" height=\"1369\" src=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1716\" srcset=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468.jpg 2265w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468-300x181.jpg 300w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468-768x464.jpg 768w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468-1536x928.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/20230110_194148-scaled-e1673397869468-2048x1238.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2265px) 100vw, 2265px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">Matter of fact, I basically control it all from my playing position because the iPad sits in a holder tilted to me that controls my Panasonic GH5s camera so I can start and stop the camera from this position, so basically all the controls are very close to me now&#8230; I love it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">I spent a few hours today optimizing and playing with lighting setups, camera settings and working things from this position so that basically all I do tomorrow is run through the song a couple times to refresh it in my head and record it in one shot.  I also worked on several video camera test shots of the new setup to get a clean green screen effect&#8230; I think I have that recipe close to perfect!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THEN comes the time to make those recordings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">I am really looking forward to making a bit of a multi-track recording, though  I am not sure of what addition or accompanying instruments will be added yet, but I am thinking something along the lines of accordion (of course), guitar, trumpets or possibly xylophone or similar.  We will see what I can dream up tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The fun part for me is that it is going to be completely off the cuff, nothing really hard rehearsed and basically just have some fun&#8230; looking forward to it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More to come in the next post!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Setting up the new recording layout for a recording session the following day&#8230; here is that story! &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/getting-ready\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Ready to make some music!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":2,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","_crdt_document":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stories","category-technical"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1715"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/syner-g.no-ip.biz\/mymusic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
