GUITAR INSTRUMENTAL BY :- Ian Wilson.
.........................................................................................................................
SOUND WAS ACHIEVED BY :-
I played my Fender Stratocaster guitar, into a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 2nd Gen USB Audio Interface, then into a 'Reaper Mixing Software' programme to record the sound whilst playing to the backing track of :- 'TAMMY'
Using Reaper & Guitar Rig, I produced the desired sound required and saved the finished soundtrack to my computer as a MP3 file.
Then I placed the camera footage onto the timeline in CyberLink PowerDirector19, 'BUT' I replaced the camera soundtrack with the 'NEW'
computer mixed soundtrack from Reaper and Guitar Rig, re-edited the footage to produce the finished video of :- 'TAMMY'

Tammy / Song by Debbie Reynolds
Lyrics
I hear the cottonwoods whisperin' above
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
The old hootie owl hootie-hoo's to the dove
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
Does my lover feel what I feel when he comes near?
My heart beats so joyfully
You'd think that he could hear
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
Whippoorwill, whippoorwill, you and I know
Tammy, Tammy can't let him go
The breeze from the bayou keeps murmuring low
Tammy, Tammy, you love him so
When the night is warm, soft and warm
I long for his charms
I'd sing like a violin
If I were in his arms
Wish I knew if he knew what I'm dreaming of
Tammy, Tammy, Tammy's in love
