I agree the listing seems to lean more towards vocals, and would love to hear what you come up with if you decide to go that way. All in all sounds very usable to me, if not for this lsiting then certainly many others. I am also interested to learn more about this type of recording...Would you care to share what your gear, hardware, software, format, samplers, midi, etc...set up is like to achieve these sounds? Best of Luck!LeeThanks for the feedback Lee!Yeah, I'm guessing they want some sort of refrain too... and I'm not sure if I've nailed it for this listing, but I started this track before I saw it, so screw it! As far as gear, I'm working in Logic Pro on a Mac most of the time, using my ratty old synth from the early 90's for MIDI only. Most of the synths and drums come directly out of the box, but I do have other packages too, mainly from EastWest and EZDrummer. Of course with a piece like this I usually end up effecting a lot of the sounds anyway, making them fairly unrecognizable. For live guitar, I usually just plug in direct and use the on-board effects to shape the sound. Really, Logic has some great guitar sounds that are pretty easily modifiable. For this particular piece, I have 43 tracks (only 5 were audio, the rest MIDI) most of which funnel into 10 different busses before dropping into the master out... all with varying effects which gave my laptop the hiccups on live playback! Usually I don't try to stall out my computer, but I got on a roll... or something. Hope that helps!
