I'm looking forward to experimenting with online (remote) recording. Perhaps you can send this note (or some variation) to the choir. I hope it's not too confusing.</div><div><br></div><div>We are starting to experiment with online music recording. Here is a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRtV1rfK6aQ&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">video</a> of Spirit of Life (just piano), and we hope to add vocals. If you are up for trying this, here are some notes for AUDIO & VIDEO. If you have any questions you can call or email Vic (303-247-1800).</div><div><br></div><div>The most important thing is that we want to have your vocals recorded clean - WITHOUT the piano music (and other background sounds). What might be easiest is to listen to the piano on your computer (with headphones), and record audio & video using a digital camera (or smartphone). If you can do this, please look into the camera (or close to it) when recording.</div><div><br></div><div><b>NOTES:</b></div><div>- Remember - USE HEADPHONES!</div><div>- If you have an audio recorder (and microphone) this would give us the best sound. </div><div>- If you use a separate audio recorder, remember that we want to get video. You can use a camera, or your computer (and send both the audio and video files).</div><div>- Another option to record video is Quicktime Pro if you have it on your computer. Open Quicktime and select File - New Movie Recording & hit the RED record button</div><div>- A final option is that we can record over a ZOOM call. Get in touch with Vic and we can arrange a time.<br></div><div>- All files should be emailed to Vic at <a style="color: rgb(60, 64, 67); overflow: hidden; font-family: Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; white-space: nowrap; -ms-text-overflow: ellipsis; text-decoration-line: none;" href="mailto:victorgeemail@gmail.com" target="_blank">victorgeemail@gmail.com</a></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div></div></div>
