“As We Bow Down,” revisited revised
As we bow down, Lord, lift Yourself, magnificent and glorious!
Back to work on “As We Bow Down” on Garage Band, take 3. I’ve got new tracks recorded and a mixdown that sounds great on my headphones - but then the vocals sound like they’re coming from the bottom of a deep muddy well on the speakers, either the iMac’s little speakers or the studio monitors. So some more learning is in store about what Garage Band can do to fix it. I’ve set myself a goal to get a decent recording of the song out this week, but more work to do, or start over with take 4. This is one of my best songs, one of my favorite songs, and one that people have actually used in worship, so it deserves the best recording I can make of it. (Or please, buy the sheet music, let me hear what YOU can do with it.)
