Updated: 2013 11 08 just added more harmonies... moved vocal back in the mix.. fixed sax recorded in the bathroom sound... added volume automation so songs builds.. on various tracks... New Mix: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2010...0automation.mp3Original Message: Starting to work on a new album called "I finally found my groove" and this will be the first song on it.. This is a very rough cut... Solo may be replaced with a friends guitar solo.. if I can get him to make the time to do it..lol The sax solo is filler at the moment for the solo to go there. Wanted to use a Brent Mason solo ...however there is no solo at 93 bpm that sounds good...the pop and rock solos..when decreased in speed sound like he had taken downers... sloooow.... (sorry about the wave link first posted.. reverbnation is what I usually link to and they convert automatically) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20107089/2013%2011%2006%20best%20of%20me%20-%20sax%20solo.mp3Band in the Box Parts: Bass Part: DRCBRIT Diving BritRock Guitar (entire song starting on first verse) Electric Guitars (third verse and on): HROCKLA - LA Hard Rock Sax Solo: JZFNKAS - Jazz Funk Groovin Work Flow (1) chords entered into BB to write the song.. (2) pull off the different sytle parts into individual track waves.. inside BB (3) bring tracks into Sonar X3 and additional tracks from EZKeys (piano) and EzDrums (drums). Supplement as needed other instruments (3) Mix down using Sonar X3 using the new mixing skills I'm acquiring (daily). Using a lot of vst2's and vst3's from isotope for mastering and sound flavoring in mix down. Learning why songs go muddy when additional track layers are added. Yep learning frequencies to enhance per instrument and frequencies to squash so every instrument sits in the mix. Using High pass filters as well as Low Pass filters on each track and as well as adding compression on main buss.

If you convert it to mp3 then more people will be able to stream it.

Hi Paul,
nice song. Enjoyable listen.
A little long though.
I would have liked to hear a little bit more of your harmonies.

Nice mix for a rough cut.... Look up Wave Pad http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/index.htmldownload it and when it expires simply elect to continue the free version.... it still converts waves to MP3 and does trimming and some other handy things.... nice job on the song. 80's rock solid ballad,

Paul,
A good sound you've got going there. A touch of Styx-vibe - which is cool.
For the style of song this is, I felt that the vocal was a bit too out front. It has a "sharpness" to it that you would typically find in a Country mix, but not in a Rock mix of this genre. It should sit back "nestled in the instruments" more (IMO of course).
The same is true for the sax - even more so, actually. It seemed like it did not want to be part of this band (and a very good band it is - it should want to be part of it).
Just an opinion. I liked the song. The comments are aimed at the mix...

The sax is going to be replaced .. once my friend gets motivated..lol Your right the sax player got recruited the last minute.. wrong reverb and sounds like it was recorded in bathroom with muffled echo...lol
Its a first drop down mix.. ears need rest.. but will most likely re address sound levels of tracks .. when ears have calmed down.. high frequency hearing is not at the best at the moment... too much listening at high levels.. on the near field monitors...lol
But your dead on ..with that sax comment.. .when I posted I thought I would get blasted about that... but I had nothing else to put there at the moment... lol

For a rough, it's got a lot of promise. I agree with Guenter that it's a bit long, and with floyd that it has a sort of Styx vibe. It would be awesome with full harmony on the chorus.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
