“Re: "I'm Wishing for Daisies" Your description of this tune reminds me of something my old chiormaster told me when I was a teen and first became interested in writing songs and went to him for lessons because he was a GENIUS at piano/pipe organ and theory and such ... he said 'Scott, I can't teach you, you already know this stuff but you don't know you know it' feel me? ... Mike, you know this stuff but you don't know you know it, lessons would probably ruin your gift ... this is beautiful to me my friend ”

Questions

Ask Mike Huntingford anything...

Q: Can you add violin, piano, and/or drums to an existing track? I am a songwriter with loads of songs but having trouble getting a good recorded version due to my lack of knowledge.

A: Absolutely. An existing track becomes one of many (hence multi-track recording). Let's say you have recorded yourself singing - say to a guitar you're recording as well. After that track is made and mixed down to a .wav or .mp3 file. That file can be imported into a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) - mainly software now (like Cubase, Reaper, Reason, Pro Tools, etc), While your track is played back, other instruments may be added (almost unlimited number). Then the new compilation is mixed down to a .wav or .mp3 track. Your new song now has all the newly added instruments. I hope that answered your question. Mike Huntingford
