Wish You Were Here Cover

[digger7106]

pain pain,as in watching this vid, don't get me wrong,ur talented,but with all that equipment at your disposal ,this is what you load .

[mattb4rd]

@digger7106 I acknowledged in the description that there's a lot of problems here. I'm almost completely self taught and clearly know very little about AV production.

I created it and uploaded it, along with my other videos, just to see if I could. I hope to have time one of these days to be able to invest more effort into the hobby.

Thanks for the comment.

[mattb4rd]

@bigwhig88 I know I screwed up the lyrics, but it was the least of my worries at the time. It took an entire weekend to get this recorded and mixed and I was worn out by the time I uploaded it. It needed another weekend, but I was done with it.

[mattbfc2009]

blue skies from rain?

[mattb4rd]

@mattbfc2009 Yeah ... from rain :)

[Gammalfaen]

Great cover!

3:31 looks like a dildo.

[mattb4rd]

@Gammalfaen Indeed it does look like an interplanetary marital aid!

[Jaymzthedude]

Average at best but at least you tried! Good for you. Just wondering but you mention the solo in the description but you don't play it, just the solo intro??!!??

[mattb4rd]

At this point I was pretty frustrated with the audio/video processes and was pleased to get anything posted and move on. :)

I've since sold the Mbox2 and given the guitar to my daughter, but I'll be back.

Thanks for the comment.

[MacPro1234]

very good cover,well done. im a fan of pink floyd

[umacs4]

What kind of guitar are u using? Im looking for a good acoustic/elctric epiphones have been what ive been looking at ...but good cover

[mattb4rd]

It's a Seagull Artist Mosaic

[umacs4]

Thanks, would you recomend it?

[mattb4rd]

Absolutely. Seagull builds great guitars.

[jtdoria]

I just ordered a seagull artist mosaic cutaway. any comments on the guitar or the company?

[mattb4rd]

This is my 2nd Seagull and I am very pleased with it. This particular guitar is a bit on the quiet side, but since I play mostly for personal enjoyment, it's fine.

My first one was an S6+ Spruce with L.R. Baggs electronics. I miss it.

[guitar4231]

nice cover

[BlisherMG]

What program you used to make the backing track? Especially drums :)

Great Cover! :)

[TheKingDsK]

[mcbawsack]

i salute you sir.

very well done.

[denosi]

Like your Plantronics headphones :P.

& Well done!

[mattb4rd]

What can I say? I am cheap :). I have since sold the AKG Microphone and the Mbox2 / ProTools in favor of a Samson CO1U USB Microphone and Audacity.

[kamicaziechicken]

its brill mate. Well bloody done! :)

[cdorgan08]

Wow i loved this!

x

[VDoPanteraCFH]

You look like Kyle Gass.....anyways nice cover sir!

[TehVidMaker]

wish you were here too

well done, man

[StavrosMusic]

Hey i liked the feeling you have for this song - very nice - caught the emotion perfectly!!!!

[miznerowns]

that was very good. sounded exaclty like it, except the vocals obviously, but hey you still sang really good

[cutewhenyouscream96]

well played man, it would be better if the vocals were louder but it was great!!

[mattb4rd]

Thank you. I'm still learning about recording and mixing through trial and error.

[snk07]

are you david gilmour?? YOU ROCK MAN!

[mattb4rd]

Haha .. no but I've been told I look like Kyle Gass. I don't see it. :)

[CssSnake6]

how many times do you strike the G chord in the begginng?

I'm trying to learn this song and I cant figure it out no matter how much I try.

[MegsDad64]

Very Nice, Well played!

[mattb4rd]

Thank you very much.

[TATYSAURIO]

i fell sorry for your voice!!! nice guitar!!!

[mattb4rd]

Thanks for the comments. At least you have some videos of your own up-most that make critical comments do not have videos posted.

[MYLOVELYLONGNECK]

awesome 5/5

[mattb4rd]

Wow .. thank you :)

[corvettez0910]

good cover

[mattb4rd]

Thanks

[olp34]

Good guitar, and your voice wasn't so bad

But if I were you, i'll try putting more power in my singing.

Tomorrow I'll play and sing this song live with my band, so i'm looking for good versions to imitate, cuz I still haven't learnt the solos and I dont wanna improvise them cuz I might fail, lol

[mattb4rd]

Thanks for the comments. You're not the first to suggest that for my vocals. I will record my guitar and vocals separately in my next few videos.

[Heartless5141]

Yes, very nice work, the solo came through loud and clear for me. I've started to pick up guitar myself, the only part I don't have down yet is the slides on the solo. Practice makes perfect though...

[mattb4rd]

Thanks for the kind comment and keep on playing :)

[eiknuj]

nice work! (but i dont here the solo)

its a very great and difficult song ;)

i always wonder how dave plays the song live better than the original ^^

[mattb4rd]

Thanks! The solo is there (at least the beginning solo is). It sounds best with headphones.

[CobRulzz]

Lol, its funny.. :P Dont think its too serious! Relax a bit man! HAHA Its cool, you play well! Keep it on! What kind of guitar are you using? (I am using a 12 strings takamine to make that cover, its just sooo crazy)

[mattb4rd]

It's a Seagull Artist Mosaic. Believe it or not, my electric is a Takamine. They no longer make electrics. I'd love a 12 string. Thanks for the comment.

[ninayo666]

This is a good cover.

[mattb4rd]

Thank you.

[122099]

Blue skies from brain??? What??

[mattb4rd]

Probably. It's a cover, you know. :) Thanks for commenting.

[kooba147]

i thought it was blue skys from rain

[122099]

I think in the original he sings "blue skies from pain"

But english is not my first language so I may be wrong.

I think the rest of the cover is very nice, only the voice is a bit high. Maybe you should tune down your guitar...

And how did you do those synth sounds?

[mattb4rd]

I covered this for the opening solo really. It's always been a favorite of mine so I learned it, recorded it and moved on. I'm not much of a vocalist so I don't beat myself up about my singing.

I'm having a lot of fun with my guitar right now which is one of the very few things that has kept my attention over the last few decades.

[trevajake]

good job on this man

[mattb4rd]

Thanks

[PunkKid49]

shobi

hey nice voice :)

[mattb4rd]

Wow thanks for the great compliment. You're being kind. :) I recorded the audio using a Digidesign Mbox2 with Pro Tools 7. The video was recorded with the camera and software built into my HP notebook.

I put the audio and video together using windows movie maker. The audio is slightly out of sinc with the video, but I left it that way because I was sick of fiddling with it.

I've since sold the mbox2 and have a much simpler set up. I lack inspiration at the moment. Thanks again!

[MasterFender]
