Happy Going Nowhere
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtyic8onHsQ
Backing track is _BRSOLC3.sty Country Rock Guitar Solo
The style guitar was pushed back in the mix but is there!
I use a Head Rush Gigboard to load the track and loop my lead parts.
Then take them into Vegas Pro to produce.
Very little needs to be done. Just adjust the EQ check compression and add some reverb

Hi, Doggie.

Welcome to the forum!

Sounds good, but like the title says, it would be nice if there were a clear chorus or bridge. But that's just me.

Thanks for posting! laugh

Thanks for the feed back. Much appreciated.
I bought BIAB in 2005 and hardly ever used it
so this new version I'm learning the ins and outs.
There's so much to it. It's a lot of fun.

It's interesting but it's also confusing to listen to as there's no real focus or key element.
EQ wise the bass needs to sound like a bass and the drums seem to have had all mids & lows removed.
The video, sort of, reflects the sound.
I think you should remix this giving everything a static place in mono, EQ so that they sound like they belong and THEN look at a stereo. Finally you could look ad automated panning etc. IF needed.
As it plays it's a little more "mal de mer" than Happy.

Nice use of Real Tracks, and guitar playing, however there are multiple conflicting melodies all going on at the same time. Which is a bit confusing for the listener to focus on any one of them. Good job, thanks for posting
