We used RealTracks on our newest addition to our CD in the studio, great work PG!

http://tbdb.ca/?page_id=144

I used SONAR X3 Producer Edition and various plugins on the RealTracks, lead vocals and two backing harmony vocals, plus 13 "gang" vocal tracks! eek

Cheers,
Les!



Sociable
©2013 L. Bolen/B. Couttie (SOCAN)

You're downtown and have nothing to do
Just come on down for a real good time
We'll be hangin' with Brad and the Boys on Friday night
The lights are down and the keg's on ice
And everybody's dressed up all nice
We're feelin' good it's a sociable kind of time

Chorus

So if you get your party shoes shined, and if Turner's on time
We can dance all night, and feel all right
With our glasses held high in the air
They gonna sing some real good ole tunes, everybody knows every word
Everybody grab your drink; hold 'em high in the air
1-2-3, SOCIABLE!

The good ole boys bellied up to the bar
The next one's well it's really not far
And turn it on, crank it up, turn it up, get on down
There's a biker song, a trucker song
They're singin' all the oldies all night long
The wheels keep turning on and on

Solo
Repeat ½ Chorus

It's not just another song about drinking beer
It's a song that says I wish you were here
C'mon, c'mon, shake your booty
Hey now mama, hey little lady
I said hey, I said hey hillbilly
Hey, hillbilly, one more then that's it!

Repeat Chorus

Les,

Welcome! This sounds great. Terrific vocals! Good mix.

A fun song - love the style you've done there...

Nice leads, too... (that very last one cuts off pretty quick - would be nice if it rang out to a long fade..)

Look forward to more!

Hi Les,

although you registered nearly 2 years ago
I haven't seen you here. So welcome to the
forum.
Nice fun song. I especially like your "gang" tracks.
You deliver a good live feeling.

nice energy level in the tune...... sounds like something you might hear playing in any one of the thousands of live music clubs across the land on any given Saturday night.

Great performance! The arrangement and mix is good, but the vocals really sell the song.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Les, Now that is a good time party song. Nice job on the vocal. The mix sounds great. The editing on the lead guitar is well done. That lead guitar is perfect for the song

and sounds great. I agree that in the outro it cuts off short. Sometimes you can add multiple tracks of regenerated solos and splice them together so you don't have to

just settle for what is there in the first generation of the soloist track. I always say endings are the hardest part of BIAB. I have started to look at the endings first to make

sure they sound as natural as I can make them and then work on the rest. Anxious to hear more of your work, Good Job. Tom

Thank you everyone for your nice comments; it's inspiring!

Yes, I wish the guitar player was myself, but it's Brent Mason, so I didn't want to change what he did too much, I did actually change one note he played in Melodyne, taking a sustained note up a fourth, and I suppose I could extend out the final note on the end in the same plugin...

Thanks again everyone, I'm just trying to make the tracks into a backing track for our band now...hmm...what to leave in and what to take out...?

Hi Les,

Now that's how musical confidence sounds! The energy of your song is incredibly infectious. Great song, great arrangement, brilliant production and performance.

I'm late to the party but I'm sure glad I didn't miss this one.

Regards,
Noel
