i hate to admit it... but I lip sync everything from the back; I hold the video camera, which is really a remote mic that broadcasts my dual band to receptors on stage. I sing the vocals through a FemTrans XL600 (that's a male to female voice converter module). How do I split up the vocals? I run a pre-mix audio feed thru a Split Screamer pocket pedal. It hears the melody, calculates 6 possible harmonies and I set the default to: "Stacy" if I'm singing sherri's part and vice versa. Sometimes I get confused as you might have noticed... but yes. Totally, we lip sync. It's a core value. How else can eisley ever get to be as big as Ashley and Brittany? _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

Good thing the guys don't sing Boyd, I think it might be hard for you to sing in a deep, manly voice. OH SNAP!!! |

Sometimes theys lip sync, but, it's only when one of them don't get they way, and they lips go all pouty like. 
But, then, Weston makes them laugh, and they lips don't sync no mo!

Ok... I'll come clean. I DON'T do the vocal tracks. Kim does. My video camera pipes lives shows to her Apple Workstation where she transmits all the vocal audio for both girls from the Eisley office.. What about the video delay? I accommodate for the lag time by running her output through my new Antici-Vocal Zip 2000. It monitors modem rates and anticipates/corrects delays. You could NEVER know it's not Eisley singing...never. And Kim is good. I'm just a tech-junkie...a gear puppet. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

I think this is a sign that Boyd either needs to get back to work, or go to sleep.

I guess he's taking a break. Sometimes I come here for a break when I'm studying for a test like right now. I guess I need to get back to work too. |

Anyway, they don't need assistance to sound incredible live. I saw that! I saw that! I feel special now. _________________ Just to lay with you, there's nothing that I wouldn't do (save lay my rifle down). |

the band plays live, they aren't bubble gum pop, no annoying dance routines, & no lip syncing, not like there's anything wrong with it. |
