Default Cast Away (Mark Hanson) on Edwinson Zephyr 00

Hi There,

Here's my rendition of Mark Hanson's Cast Away. This is one of his original compositions that is part of his Art of Solo Fingerstyle course. I love the vibe and happy mood of this song, it's fun to play. I used my Edwinson Zephyr 00 on this one (Adi/Cocobolo). Such a lovely guitar, very pleased I got it.

I think it came out pretty good other than my breathing and grunting is kind of there and (I laugh) I kind of hum (or grunt along) to a couple of measures about 2/3 through. It's raw artistry folks!

Techie notes were a KM184 SDC and Austrian Audio OC818 LDC setup in a spaced pair about 24" apart and 8"-10" from the guitar. The KM184 pointing at the neck junction and the OC818 aimed at the lower bout. Mics to Sebatron Axis mic preamp to Motu Mk V Ultralight interface to Reaper. I used the Sebatron HPF set at about 100 Hz. Post processing was some reverb via the Seventh Heaven Sunset Chamber reverb plug-in and mild compression using the Wave CLA-2 compressor plug-in.

Appreciate any constructive feedback, thanks for taking a listen.

Cheers,

Bob
