My current hard and soft:
Mac G5 dual M-Audio FireWire Solo GarageBand Audacity I'm not a professional musician and don't intend to be. I just want to start singing and playing guitar Blues on my own as a retirement hobby. Instead of using loops for the drums and bass backing I would like to use actual recordings of my favorite musicians as karaokes. Is it possible to remove both voice and guitar from a recording? If so how? Secondary question, a little off topic: I need to buy an electric guitar, not too expensive, possiblly second hand. As a matter of fact I'll stick to a slow tempo, like Blues does, so I don't need a "fast" guitar. I don't care about the look or the shape since I find them all ugly whether Strato or LesPaul or whatever. I don't care about accessing the highest treble notes. I care only usability and sound. What are the specs I should put on my list? Any brand you would recommend? TIA Nick |

Hi zrobert
I just checked Jamey Aebersold’s Music Minus One site. I couldn't believe I would come across so many stuff I like and I even didn't browse it entirely! Good tip thanks. However I often feel a little dummy on certain sites: what does the product exactly consists of. I understand there is a book. Is there a CD to be able to play along with? Certain sites seem to feel it's so self-evident they don't tell what they do like Ford doesn't need to say it manufactures cars. Nick |
