@the_bumble_bard I loved it! It was so good.love the slides and the melancholy feel to it. The PBJ name is awesome. How did you come up with the title? I figured the Jeff came from the J in PBJ but it’s a guess 😂 Do tell…

@leb397 Thanks so much. My little song doesn’t belong here with all the awesosme ones so don’t be afraid to post. We’re all having fun.

Has anyone heard from @emiliano? Does he know he won the baritone? Haven’t heard from him.

@Andrew I just looked up how to normalize the audio in Ableton. So am I right to assum that this should be done before exporting it as a .wav file? Thanks.

@Andrew Thanks. I don’t know what normalizing the audio means. I will google it 🙂

@anyon1 nice title page. Cute song. Very nice.

@rebeca Welcome back. Hope you keep posting because that was such a beautiful song. I can’t imagine being away from uke for a while and being able to write such a beautiful song like that.

@malku2603 and @jedart very nice travis picking.

@Andrew Thanks. That’s what I was using when I recorded this time but I am still in the process of figuring it out ☺️ I recorded into Ableton Live and have the mic, uke, laptop, headphones and monitors all plugged into a little Mackie ProFx6 Mixer. As I was practicing today I figured out how to get the sound to come out of the monitors. Is that how I should record for the challenges while recording from my phone to get the video? I’d kill two birds w/one stone that way.
The video in this post was done into Ableton Live and exported as a .wav file. I then combined the audio and video using iMovie for Mac. I tried copying all the setting you use in Ableton live but the volume was maybe still a little low. I don’t know.

Thanks for your help. I will have the studio setup all the time now so I can actually learn and make improvements.

I am a Premium Member.

Here is my first ever original song ☺️. It’s called, “On the mend”.
A friend’s sudden health scare inspired it.

@the_bumble_bard I will share it. I was being a little facetious. I really just need to set aside time to do it. This week for sure. Can’t wait to hear everyone’s songs. I really loved the original song of @Janaq1 What a beautiful song.

I thought this challenge would be much harder than learning someone else’s song but it wasn’t. That came as quite a surprise to me. Hope we get more challenges like it. Thanks @Andrew

@shmu88 What?!?! That was soooooo amazing! I loved the entire thing….I was gonna post today but I don’t want to go after you 🤪🤣😂

This challenge is sooo good. Enjoying everyone’s submissions.

[gi_gi_]

@Emiliano I’m so excited for you. You will do so much justice with that baritone. Really hope you don’t have problems with customs.

@NAT-UKE Congrats Nat Uke. Your submission was awesome.

@deadbuggy That is amazing. Wow! Loved it. You play so well.

@the_bumble_bard I totally am thanks to your noodling thread and @Andrew’s video on how to write a song. I’m working on it. This is so much fun. Thanks for the encouragement.

[gi_gi_]

Way to go @the_bumble_bard woohoo! Those slides are fantastic. I’m so excited about this challenge. I think your song is beautiful. Can’t wait to hear the final take.

@emiliano Please be safe.
