Who is responsible You wake up one day And you’ve lost your way Empty phases Odd little phrases Where did I put my shoes The shoes are there Lucky. They fit. On your feet One foot in front Follow the other Sometime it works to follow Sometime folks Know where to go One foot in front of the other.

Well at least I’m walking now But talking might be a struggle Do I have ideas Can I think of things I fear I will get no reaction Could it possibly be I’m out the door Sitting in a small cafe I turn my head So glad I’m able She sits serene Reading a book. So close. I could touch her table She turns her head With the slim est of smiles She speaks to me

Her words are clear
Whole and round
Perfectly formed
Warm and right
I loose my fear
I know where I am
She speaks to me
She asked me how I’d been
Like she had known me before
I wondered how this could be
She speaks to me
I skip a step
I hear the score
I’m not as lost
As I was before
She speaks to me
She speaks to me
A touch of hand
A friendly smile
Extreme serene
I feel the meaning
She speaks to me

She's the air in my lungs when I say her name my pulse is much quicker and she's to blame I've sat here before but it's not the same She speaks to me She speaks to me

Hey Bill,
I have a built in mic on my all-in-one PC and a copy of Audacity to record with.
I have no professional equipment to work with. Sorry.
Peace,
Dave

Question: Can you open audacity, press record, and record a track, singing or talking, using the pc mic?

If you're already on your computer... and SUNO is the final destination...
What's the point?

Well, save another poor musical soul from the horrors of suno addiction.
You yourself have held out very well.
I slip back into addiction. It so easy. You know, click the create button, magic.
But….it is more satisfying to create one’s own. Even if it means accepting the fact that it is…not so good really. But at least one is not delusional.
Your non-suno music is good. But why aren’t you happy with your creations? Aren’t you one of the lucky ones that has no addiction, creates his own?

Yessir! I've done that a few times now and had SUNO do a cover of my song.
"Say Something Nice" and most recently "Where We've Been" are examples.
Peace,
Dave

Excellent! That opens up the non-suno collab possibilities for this thread. Cheers!

KL gave the chords to Standing Here as G, A, D. That is 1, 2, & 5 chords. the 2 chord is Am maybe.
But I chanced on a youtube with 1, 2, 5 chords and wanted to save it for reference, future music creation, etc.

Actually, suno is in key Cm, but I dropped it down to Am…..bar chords are so hard on arthritic fingers!

Yes , I do it all the time when I want to give Suno my vocal melody. I do have a mic, but I don't always need to use it.

I have all this equipment I never use. I have a Fender rumble 100 bass amp, that I purchased 3 years ago, that I have hardly touched. So I was loooking at YouTube to get familiar w it. I want to record a bass/drum thing. Here is a short YouTube demo of one of the rumbles features. To start.

https://jumpshare.com/share/d9OutSEwZjCKHB3zKB1Q Recorded bass line direct into daw from xlr connect in back of amp. Used a click track.
Didn't use any of the sound shapping button as shown in youtube.
Next , added drums. Difficult. kept speeding up. touch inconsistent. steady rhythm difficult. With repeated takes, I began to improve.
Sound scape.....very heavy bass domination in end product....that surprised me....maybe try the bright or contour shape next time.

I liked the contour+bright in the vid. Your XLR out may be overdriving your DAW. Also, check the tone controls at your line in (DAW). Some amps also have a built in "Cabinet Simulator" on the line out, which mimics a mic and a much larger speaker box... Try the headphone line out and use your DAW monitors.
