... and guitar
Chris from the UK added a little guitar to our tune. He wrote: "My guitar recorded very bass heavy so I applied a little filter to brighten it up."
I have no idea what he did. Using a filter in Audacity? And how? Hopefully he´ll tell us.

I play a dreadnought style guitar, which provides lots of bass. This is great when playing with friends, but I find the recorded sound I achieve is laden too heavily with low frequencies.
Maybe I need to find a new microphone or change my recording environment to compensate (or my guitar!) - instead I apply a bass cutting filter.
I use a program called 'Cool Edit Pro' to master the tracks (in .wav file format). It's similar to Audacity, i.e. gives you the ability 'multi-track' and mix down a number of tracks into a single stereo file.
So for this recording I applied a bass-frequency cutting filter on the guitar track only, and then mixed down the tracks together.
Cool Edit Pro can do all kinds of post recording processing. I'm not so familiar with Audacity but I suspect it is possible to do the same process (or maybe there is a plugin to do this).
I'm a recording novice, I'm sure there are sound engineers who may know a better way to achieve more 'even frequency' recordings.
Hope this helps. Have fun!
