A Cappella Cover: The Star-Spangled Banner

FurryMurry

Hey all! I don't know if I should post this in the Newbies area or not, because I've only been doing the course for about a month at this point, and this is my first time making an a cappella cover. I also know nothing about music theory and have problems with getting harmonies. This is also my first time with editing using Pro Tools.

But, I really REALLY want honest feedback because it's been very difficult to get good advice, seeing as most people aren't doing a cappella songs. Please let me know what you think. The link is:

All sounds made with my voice and mouth (and claps)

I can’t get it to play. Anyone else?

Ok, so I tried uploading it onto SoundCloud. I never used it before, so please bear with me!

I think over time you will learn to not lean so heavily into your mask in your mid range and get the sound to resonate from further in the back of your throat. Very good starting point though, well done!

Thank you very much, Wigs! I really appreciate the advice!
