This series will follow my creating an original song in biab, then using real band, and finally into reaper for mixing and mastering- perhaps using sound forge for the mastering stage too. This is the first installment. Hopefully it's interesting enough that people will want to see the next parts. I'm pretty new at this video stuff. Audio is so easy compared to video. I've learned some stuff about my screen recordings and they will be better in the following installments. This is a lot of extra work thrown onto just creating a song, but I find it to be really fun and hopefully people will find it interesting enough to check in and follow along. We'll see!

Hi Dan,

Very very instructive.
I appreciate the time and effort that you have put into this project.

I particularly liked how you added shots and holds along with part markers at the end of your chart.
I (for one) never thought about doing that but I will now

Can't wait until the RealBand section and also the Reaper part comes into fruition.

Well done.

Best regards
George

Good Job! Anything to proselytize these products is a positive.

Love it Dan. Cool "sizzle" cooking the charts. Great tip on generating the extra drum fills - never thought of doing it that way. I'm looking forward to the next episode!

Excellent, always fun to see how others work with our favorite programs. Thanks for sharing.

Glad you're enjoying this! I'm working on part one of the real band chapter. Two parts will be needed to cover it. Stay tuned- it should be up soon. I suppose if you subscribe to my channel you'll be notified when new chapters are up. This is really fun and I'm glad there's at least some interest. Thanks all!

Enjoyed the video -- looking forward to the real band thing. I don't really use RB at the moment.

Chicago to India eh? I'll report in next week from Europe. I have the tickets now. And the visa charges to prove it. I hope India is fun, I hope to go in 2014, and I also hope to wake up tomorrow. Ha.
