Dear Friends,
This past week I've been experimenting with the best way to capture audio for live videos, which lead me to update my operating system and, therefore, my recording software *screams of horror*.
This desperate act was born from a long standing desire to have studio quality audio with my videos.
I'm happy to say that after hours of nearly pulling my hair out and contacting many different support lines, I have seemingly accomplished the impossible... I am now recording and editing almost as seamlessly as I was before. A proud moment for this Luddite ;*)
While I was experimenting with using a bluetooth mic for videos, I captured this performance of Kiss These Broken Wings on the first take, and though I'm not happy with the audio quality, I really love the performance.
I wanted to share it with you and give you the latest from The Secret Hollow.
Aside from the drama of updating my operating system so that I can download proper video editing software and make better sounding live videos, this week I sent the song Dream Catcher Hollow to my friend Kristen, who is currently adding cello! I'm very excited for this collaboration and hope to have a rough mix to share with you soon :)
In the meantime, I'm prepping for my first live show (which was postponed), prepping for the next Patron Only show, and editing and adding bass to the song Butterflies in My Mind in the hopes that Kristen can add some cello before she leaves for tour in May.
I want to thank you all for your love and support, it certainly keeps me going during my inevitable skirmishes with the necessary evil known as technology ;)
Sending you my love!
Eva
