EDIT: Bamm copyright right after i’ve uploaded the video :/ let’s see how i fix this~

Cascade - Unlimits [Tabbers Notes and Thoughts]

Guitar Cover: 

Reason for song of choice: it’s quite an old song now but it really gets me when i listen to this song :’) I believe other people also like this song so i just want to share it together with my guitar improvs in it! Hope you enjoy it!!

19th July 2012 - 1:09 AM: just got a good mp3 ready! ill try to wake up early *today* so that i can tab 1 of the 2 songs that i’ve planned to cover for *today*! Just relistening right now but i think i’ll do all the stuffs in the morning!
Ps. Really the chorus is beautiful…!! These kind of songs are the kinds that i also want to make…

———————————————————————————————————————
19th July 2012 - 1:25 PM: lol, so after a *good* sleep and some manga reading, i’m finally gonna start with the song! It’s mostly in my head though so i think it wont take tooo long xd! Let’s go!

19th July 2012 - 2:38 PM: doneee~ thehe im actually quite slow with tabbing but im such a critic when it comes to accurate hearing XD! Now just searching for a good clean sound and we’re good to go!

19th July 2012 - 4:22 PM: alright got everything and ready to record! Also had to do other stuff before i could start xd! Lets hope i can finish this soon!

19th July 2012 - 5:02 PM: done! Got 3 versions and gotta edit them and decide which one i’ll use! Yes i make extra versions to decide which one i like the best because i cant just say that this is it on the first try xd #critic
Ps: I do have to convert them all to .AVI first so this take a bit longer than expected ><

19th July 2012 - 19:03 PM: okayy…so the reason for this *long* time skip. I didn’t like the position while i was playing guitar :/ was looking at tabs while playing but it made me record myself sideways and im like no way this isn’t good Dx. Recording failed lol. Afterwards i had another few records but i realised too late that it wasn’t too focussed enough (Yes im a big critic when it comes to making covers XD!)
So i finally got a good one now, checked, converter and edited! It’s now rendering yayy ~ #slow

19th July 2012 7:26 PM: so uploading now and preparing the tabs and such! Been quite a long day and i’m starving haha! Gonna eat something and then prepare for my last cover of July :D! 

Thanks for reading this Journal! Again not too long because it wasn’t really an difficult song to play :) I hope you’ve enjoyed reading!

Until the next cover!

Hifukiyama no Mahoutsukai - Maeda Jun X Yanagi Nagi [Tabbers Notes and Thoughts]

Guitar Cover: http://youtu.be/Khopv_tX2MQ

Reason for song of choice: One of my favourite songs of the Owari Hoshi no Love Song album. First 3 seconds of the video already got me lol

17th July 2012 - 8:18 AM: so after finishing Signal Graph last night and waking up to see some comments, i realized i lost alot of interest from people. Yes, i am sad about it. No, im not gonna stay like this and be lazy. Let’s continue with a new song (*A*)/!!!

17th July 2012 - 8:20 AM: so i’ve actually already started with making tabs and i’m actually almost done with it lol. Guitar part is totally in my head except the broken notes part and the bridge! Solo is good to go so i hope i’ll be done by today! Gotta be more active to interest people again!!
Ps. I’m still in bed while typing this so i actually have to wake up/eat first haha

17th July 2012 - 9:07 AM: so after eating and helping my parents a bit, i can now start finishing the tab! Let’s hope i can finish recording before i have to work! (*o*)b #limitedtime #burningpassion

17th July 2012 - 10:02 AM: Done with tabbing and checking!! This is going faster than i thought :D lets give recording a shot now! #preparing

17th July 2012 - 10:33 AM: dammit, the sound is aweful ><’gotta make a new one that fits better with this godly song! #dedication 

17th July 2012 - 10:56 AM: so for some reason my hand hurts from trying to record a decent cover. Maybe it’s because i haven’t played in a long while and am trying too hard right now xd lol gonna take a break i guess ><

17th July 2012 - 12:14 PM: okayy the break was a bit too long so i gotta work harder now :p 

17th July 2012 - 3:03 PM: of course i couldn’t use all my time to record so i had to skip out for a bit to do some other stuff but i finally got a decent cover done! Now just some editing, i think ill try Sony Vegas this time! Its my first time so i hope that goes well!

17th July 2012 - 3:21 PM: haha… no way that i’ll use Sony Vegas for now xd it’s so difficult. Guess i’ll stick to Windows Movie Maker~

17th July 2012 - 4:08 PM: alright, its rendering now! Guess this one will take longer than Signal Graph since the video is like almost 4:30 min long but i have the patience :D

17th July 2012 - 4:39 PM: rendering complete but my laptop just crashed… OMG ><! hope i can fix it ASAP! Lucky me for having lame computers lol

17th July 2012 - 4:46 PM: Yes, file is still safe! Now uploading everything and stuffs!! Thanks for reading this Journal! It wasn’t that long this time because i had already started but i hope you’ve enjoyed reading!

Until the next cover!
