Acoustic Guitar underscore

[irthlingz]

Waited for the guitar to come in but it never did. Am I missing something or listening to a different track> ...confused!!

Maybe you hear it as harp?

I don't hear a guitar either. It sounds like a synth harp or something to me, too.

In response to your comment wondering about what else you can add, sometimes you just need to take some things away for awhile instead. Not saying that this is what you need here, just something to keep in mind.

Good luck. This version, once you get the guitar figured out, seems like a better fit for the listing than the first one.

Agree with Dean

Thank you Dean and Marco! IT IS A HARP!! (We are new with the software ...)

Going to try putting in guitar -- since that's what the listing calls for!

Thanks for the ears!

So here's a new attempt with an actual guitar in it. The piano didn't seem to fit, but we kept the harp in where the piano used to be. Would love some feedback. Thanks again!

Reckon it is getting closer to the refs, now

Yay! Thanks, Marco!

Okay. I'll try to rip the band-aid off fast.

After listening to the new track and comparing it to the reference tracks, here is what I noticed: (1) Your tempo seems slower than the refs. (2) The refs play a few guitar notes, pause, and repeat while yours seems to play continuously. (3) You cut off the last note before it finishes ringing out. (4) And of greatest importance... your instruments don't sound very realistic. You will need to figure out how to make the instruments sound real before this track has a chance to go forward. Take another listen to the reference tracks and see if you can match the sound of their instruments. You may need to try different sample libraries and you will probably have to come up with a different drum pattern, too. This one sounds like some kind of generic keyboard preset.

You're on the right track, though. It just needs some sorting out.

Good luck!

Thank you, Dean! (Didn't hurt too much! )

Actually, one of the references, "Foggy Hills," is fairly continuous throughout, with just an occasional pause here and there.
