Well, past midi's aside, I liked to first one a bit better. I have one criticism though, and there's a good chance it's solely because of these piss trebley speakers I'm using, but it seems like the cimbal crashes are a little too loud for the mix. Like I said though, it may be circumstantial.

That's what Ramsey said, and I agreed with him.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Us 3 could make a bad-as[size=2]s[/size] collaboration.[/QUOTE]

Tr00.


The cymbals are way too loud, agreed. The drums are MIDI, that's why.

We could each rip a solo over something. Mine would be hilariousy bad.

Here's what we can do...We'll start with a drum track. I'll make a rhythem track for it, being that rythem guitar is my area of skill. Lucas, you the leads and solo(s), being that you are the best of all of us. And Chris, you make an accoustic intro and interlude, sinse you said you were writing accoustic stuff.

I can tab something out for one of you to record. Just send me what you guys come up with, and I'll write something.

That could be interesting. :)

Thanks for the compliments on my lead skill BTW.

Oh dam[size=2]n[/size], I forgot you can't yet record. /lame as[size=2]s[/size]

Not yet, but soon.

I could still tab something.

Lucas, here's my weird as[size=2]s[/size] contest entry song, being that SoundClick isn't working.

I like it. :lol: at the sound effects.

Yeah, I couldn't make a black metal song without some cheese factor.

[QUOTE=cjborton]Yeah, I couldn't make a black metal song without some cheese factor.[/QUOTE]

From the way you talked about it I expected much worse. It had some cool moments in it.

My solo was lame, as they always are. That's what always pisses me off, I can never play a good solo.

[QUOTE=cjborton]Yeah, I couldn't make a black metal song without some cheese factor.[/QUOTE]

What? You sound like we hated it or something. No way! That was great!

What do you use for drums?

Same here, I'm no good at improvising. I always end up playing the same thing.

[QUOTE=Cain]What? You sound like we hated it or something. No way! That was great!

For drums I use Fruity Loops with the Drumkit From Hell sound pack.

[QUOTE=cjborton]My solo was lame, as they always are. That's what always pisses me off, I can never play a good solo.[/QUOTE]

Solos are hard. They take a ton of practice. Not just technique-wise, but theory-wise too.

I mess around, find something that works, play it a bit with variations, then explore some more and hope I don't hit a sour note.

[QUOTE=cjborton]For drums I use Fruity Loops with the Drumkit From Hell sound pack.[/QUOTE]

Can Fruity Loops play a MIDI file with one of its drumkits? Or do you have to do the stupid programming bull****?

Intruder? :amaze:

[QUOTE=madeyadams]Cain: here is the song.. I'm sure you've heard it.

I have indeed. Guitar work is nice.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Intruder? :amaze:[/QUOTE] Relax. :p

Would you guys be interested in hearing my sisters band?

[QUOTE=Cain]Can Fruity Loops play a MIDI file with one of its drumkits? Or do you have to do the stupid programming bull****?[/QUOTE]

Not directly, but you can import a MIDI file and then manually just match up all the MIDI hits with the real thing on FL. Would be a pain in the as[size=2]s[/size], but then again what isn't when it comes to making synth drums.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Would you guys be interested in hearing my sisters band?[/QUOTE]

I would if they're good.

I have to go to bed soon, too, guys. :)

Do they make Fruity Loops with Macintosh compatibility?

I'm uploading it now. They are pretty good. They have this singer with an amazing voice.

[QUOTE=Cain]Do they make Fruity Loops with Macintosh compatibility?[/QUOTE]

Couldn't tell ya.


...And sleep is for lamers.

Know who's a severely underrated guitarist? The lead player for Sister Hazel. People are always talking about John Mayer channeling Hendrix, but that dude was like if Stevie Ray and Joe Satriani had an offspring. Awesome stuff, he did.

Wait until you hear the second singer come in.

EDIT: My sister is the bass player

Lucas=lame++ apparently. :(

And speaking of lame people with the name Lucas...despite my better instinct, I'm getting excited for Star Wars III. The first two were utter banalities, but this one actually looks good!

I love Sister Hazel, and you are correct. Did you see a preview for the new Star Wars then?

Anyone listen?

It reminds me very much of a cross between Led Zeppelin and a song that belongs in a rock musical. The second singer especially has that type of voice. Good stuff!

Yea they always get compared to the Mamas and the Papas. The second singer weighs about 400 pounds :lol:

[QUOTE=cjborton]I love Sister Hazel, and you are correct. Did you see a preview for the new Star Wars then?[/QUOTE]

I did. I'm real excited...

but not enough to avoid sleep. I have to wake up in about six hours for class. :-/ Good night everyone! :wave:

Night.

Have a good one, Lucas. Chris, I'll get to the song in just a minute.
