Title: Shijie Guitars TM6
I called it that name for the title because it is the guitar that I used to record the lead guitar parts.
Background Info: The background information for this song is that I listened to the BIAB demo and thought it would be a really good track to practice jamming to with my guitar. I changed up the chords of the demo and then imported the WAV files into my DAW. I then practiced seeing if I could make it from start to finish through the song and recorded each take as I did them. I did a total of seven takes before my fingers got tired and then used my DAW to take the best parts of each take. I really didn't even know it was going to come out as an actual song because this was my first time I had used BIAB files in my DAW and also it was the first time that I ever edited anything in Studio One. This was just a huge learning experience for me and all came about by simply just trying to create a background track with BIAB and to have fun jamming over it. I'm really just thrilled how it turned out given the fact that it was my first project. As far as mixing goes I just did the best I could and for mastering I ran it through eMastered which did an AI master for me. I have no idea how to do actual mastering so I thought the eMastered was amazing and took like 3 minutes to upload and spit out the mastered version.
Song Lyrics (N/A)
The lead guitar track was recorded by me and the bass, drums, and rhythm guitars were generated by BIAB.

*******************
List other programs used in the production (e.g. DAWs like Pro Tools, Cakewalk, Cubase etc.)
I used the DAW Studio One
Any other additional information about your recording and mixing process - e.g. what effects were used in the production (reverb, auto-tune etc).
To record my guitar part I used PT Fire Breather Lead in Guitar Rig 6 which is a setting by Pete Thorn. I didn't tweak the setting at all and just played it as is. My interface is the AXE I/O by IK Multimedia and I recorded the guitar takes straight into the Studio One DAW. I used a little bit of EQ and compression on the bass, drums, and rhythm guitar tracks that were generated by BIAB. I used a plugin on the master fader called Lurssen Mastering Console and chose a rock preset. Then, for mastering I uploaded the file to eMaster at https://emastered.com/?refid=14848566 and it spat out the mastered version of the song in literally like 3 minutes. I'm so glad to have found that because I have no idea how to even begin mastering a song.
Below is one a video of one of the 7 takes that I did before editing and creating the song that is in my Soundcloud link at the top of this post.

I noticed the title of the song is supposed to be in the subject so I edited it. Sorry, didn’t notice that when I posted it originally.
