Your guitar playing is coming along very nicely, as far as I can tell, @howard . Some slight tuning issue perhaps?!? I am not sure at all though… Maybe it is just because it is (still) very clean/dry in this version!?!
Thanks! Yeah, the guitar is just very lightly amp/cab simmed with a little reverb. Needs more. Should be in tune though
Part of this is I have a very clean sounding guitar to begin with. The Pacifica is a very, very clean, chimey (strat-style) guitar. I need to dirty it up for it to sound good at all.
Luckily though my friend is a good guitarist, and his Gretsch dirties up nicely. Just edited in his first guitar take on our current cover:
I’m pretty happy with how this one is going. I’ve had the bass and drums done for a while, so vocals, mix, and master are all that’s left.
Also I love my Orange amp sim. There is no distortion effect used in that at all - it’s just his guitar clean into the amp and cab sim. The sim does a great job of emulating the classic Orange high gain sound.
Yah, sorry about that. I was listening to it through my headphones when I exported it. When played through my laptop speakers, I can barely hear the bass.
On the plus side, I ordered a spare SSD for the PC with a data transfer cable, so I should be able to flash the hard drive onto the new one and get my PC running again. (maybe)
Also picked up an audio interface:
It would also be somewhat intelligent not to just go, "Ahh, fuck it, I’ll just do this one take and it’ll be good enough. " LOL
@Sp33dSnakr okay I got home and first thing I did was put on the headphones and listen to your track on my laptop. This time I could hear the bass, and it’s a magnificent bassline indeed.
I still recommend you add a little beef to your bass track though, as it was buried in the mix.
Nice job playing though!
