I'm calling this a demo at this point because I can hear that it
needs something 'more' to complete it but everything I have
tried for the last few days detracts rather than builds the song.
So I brought the song back several layers to where it sounds
ok. I enjoy a challenge but it frustrates to be at the skill level
that I can hear more but not have the talent/skill to find that
right combination and also not be able to achieve that last bit
of processing skill to polish it for a professional sound.

Enjoy and all comments are appreciated

This time it's true love from you to me

Me, Me, Me

Charlie,

That sounds like George Harrison in his "Indian days" and so I like the vibe, man!
Quote:

I know the feeling!
I reached this point recently on one song and wondered how to improve it. I then bounced the vocal,which was recorded in my DAW, to a "wav" file and imported that as the audio track into BIAB.

SO now the song is in BIAB and I now can change the RT's and Real Drums whilst keeping tempo etc the same. I then experimented with RTs to make them match the vocals instead of the other way round. I kept the original file saved as "song" orig and saved the new working file as "song" new.

Care has to be taken that both line up and the number of bars in the vocal wav and BIAB song are the same. I did this by adding a bar at the beginning of the BIAB song, and the vocal, so I knew they lined up and also set the value in the 1st box of the import dialogue to 1.

Start here if all was recorded in BIAB !!
My song was 4/4 and I even tried 3/4 tracks which added a "weird" but interesting feeling especially mixed with the 4/4 RTs. In fact I tried everything, Sw vs even, double and half time, until "that moment" of "OH YEH" arrived which took some time but was definitely worth it. I then dragged and dropped the new tracks back into the DAW and spliced and diced all the tracks. Actually in my example I got rid of all the original tracks and the song became SO different, but the same....if you see what I mean. I will post both versions of mine later so you can hear the difference.

I found this method worked better than being stuck in the original idea as I could always revert and start again! Working against/with the vocal in place certainly made things a bit easier. One could always redo the vocal at the end if necessary.

This would also work in Real Band but I struggle with that blush and so I use BIAB and then Cubase SX but any DAW will do.

I am away from my DAW at the moment so PM me or continue here and I will try and answer any questions by referring to the file and not from my old man memory! crazy grin

Re the George Harrison vibe in his Indian days maybe, if the RT solo has the underlying midi file use that and try a sitar midi patch in a VSTi, soundfont or something like Coyote.

I hope you understand what I have said.

I did enjoy this version tho'

Charlie,

I really like this! A lot!

The song is nicely written. Simple lyrics with a nuanced melody. What a sweet melody. There were a couple of places where I expected to go to a little different place, but it worked... as is...

Overall, it has a feel that reminds me of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap... or Grass Roots (ballads)... the Turtles.. that era (and the best of it...)

Your harmonies work really well. A couple spots in the main vocal you seem just a little "unsure" but..

Alyn's suggestions are interesting (everything Alyn does is interesting, so that's no surprise...).

I will take a different tact because... I happen to be in the middle of a production using the exact same style and instruments. I almost never use Styles and if I do, I typically change out at least half of the instruments. But I ended up using this one as is (sort of). It's quite cool. But... I found it "a little difficult" to get things where I wanted them - in ways that are not typical...

The mandolin is louder than I like as a rhythm instrument. The strum guitar is very soft - so you can barely hear it. The piano seems to have reverb on it even if you cut the reverb to 0. The drums are totally cool.

These points may be sort of "scattered" as they occur to me...

You seem to have a lot of reverb going on. Not sure it that is track by track or you added one to the final mix??
I think that may part of "that feeling" you have about the final outcome. I hear it on the drums. And the overall mix has a "distant" feel (just a little). Do you use Ozone? (it is a great addition to your tool chest). Anyway.. if you have a "final mix reverb" you might try taking that off...

For this type song, I think the vocal should be a little more "in the mix" than you have. Less "out front". Typically, that would mean add a little reverb to it, but in this case I'm thinking knock a dB or 2 off it (though I may be wrong - in the context of the mix).

It depends on what you want to feature as your rhythm instrument... but I would pull the mandolin down a hair..
If you want the acoustic guitar to help it out some, try using the "Increase Volume" in Studio One (right-click the track). I do that often on the acoustic guitar tracks - it works well...

I swapped the piano out for the MIDI SuperTrack of the same thing using the HiQ piano - to have more control over the reverb aspect of it. It is much "smoother" in its chord transitions, too.
1839:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopModernGrooveA-B Ev16 075 <<< the RT
2101:Piano, Rhythm PopModernGrooveA-B Ev16 075 <<< the MIDI SuperTrack
Your piano seems to fit better than mine did (or does)

I have spent a lot of time getting the balance between the piano and mandolin where I want them.
Not sure why. It is something about this particular style.

Your guitar lead sits nicely in the mix.

For your song, I would try adding the Synth Pad that "goes with it"...
1842:Synth Pad, PopModernGrooveA-B Ev16 075
Seems like it would be PERFECT for this song. Use the Mellow version starting (maybe)) in the first chorus... let it continue in the 2nd verse... then switch to the High version for the last chorus (those are just ideas).
I don't think you need any more than that (if even that).

This is a cool song. I hope you get it to where you are happy with it...

Hi Charlie,

I like this tune and I wouldn't change too much. Alyn is right with that Harrison vibe, and sitar is no bad idea.
But most of all the vocals need some tuning.
I'm curious what will come out.

HI Alyn. Thanks for such insightful input. I do understand your method as it's quite similar to the method I utilized working to revise and update older recordings and incorporate real tracks. It is a fun but can be a somewhat tedious process. Matching that particular groove of a song is the most challenging part for me. I found that starting the process in RealBand was best because it provided more variations to work with. I do look forward to hearing your versions and what you were able to accomplish.

Conceptually with this song, I've already captured that foundation vibe, I'm struggling with the supporting instrumentation and supporting vocals. I always think a song should build from verse to verse and swell at times to accentuate an emotional peak. That's what I feel is missing here.

I really appreciate you taking time to listen and provide such detail as you did.

Charlie

Hi Floyd. Glad you like this tune. There is a bit of odd cadence to the way I wrote this song on guitar and this style intact closely complimented the feel to me.

I've reached this point in a scrambled sort of way of the recording process. The song structure was created in BIAB and exported as a stereo wave to serve as the vocal guide track in Studio One DAW. I recorded two complete vocal takes attempting to double the vocals. I did some corrective punch in's but was never satisfied with the result so I comped the two vocals into one vocal track. Then, I recorded one backing track. The only Fx was a vocal pre-set vocal male rnb that added compression and pro-eq. I lowered the compression a bit from the pre-set. I didn't do any fx on the music track in Studio One. I saved the comped vocal and backing track as stems and exited Studio One.

I imported the vocal and backing stems as well as the original Biab stereo wave into RealBand.
There, I generated TC Helicon tracks of the backing vocals after tweaking the backing vocal with melodyne.

The version of the song posted here was generated from these Realband tracks after levels set, tracks panned and... as you guessed, with a RB reverb Fx across the entire final mix. I settled on leaving the mandolin so prominently out front because the third or fourth regeneration of the track, I felt it really accentuated played off the drums quite nicely.

I had given serious thought to approaching you to see if you had any interest in collaborating on this particular song but did not think I had pre-planned and laid out a sufficient foundation. This all started as a journey to see if I could find a style that rhythmically fit with this song and I stumbled across one I think fits.

I plan to export the individual waves into Studio One today to work on a better mix. I'll probably also bring the TC Helicon Backing Vocals in to SA as well.

I do appreciate your input and expertise you offer to all of us here on the forum.

Hi Guenter. Thanks for listening and commenting. I totally agree with you about keeping the song as close to this version as possible. Not changing, but improving the performance and tweaking the vocal tuning. I'm thrilled at getting a George Harrison vibe from both you and Alyn. I've checked the lead guitar RT and it does not seem to have the midi info that the midi sitar could use. Maybe a change to a GH slide guitar sound???? We'll see.

Charlie, I also get the GH vibe and like it very much. A GH slide sound would be a good idea. I think if you work on the vocals a bit you will end up with a fine song. I would also pull back a bit on the mando, though it does work well with the drums. I also think a dreamy guitar would work well, don't know if there is one for that time signature. As mentioned earlier Ozone is a great tool for final polish. I enjoyed this one. Tom

Hi Charlie,

that's another nice one! I particularly like the style used here. To me it sounds more like a REM kind of style (in their 'Out of Time' days).
I like the arrangement, lyrics are very nice, and the singing line. Backing vocal also works.
One nit though: the lead vocal isn't always 100% in key.
I believe I read somewhere else in one of your posts that you usually do the vocals at once. maybe it's an idea to do this step by step? I rarely record a vocal at once, step-by-step gives far better results for me.
Another tip: there is a free voice pitch corrector called GSnap that sometimes works to get that harder tone just a little bit more in key.

Hi Charlie,

I like this a lot. While strumming mandolins often make me think of Led Zep's acoustic stuff, this song somehow reminded me of Spirit, a great California 60's band (you might know "Nature's Way"). I can also hear the Harrison vibe. It has a lovely, gentle feel to it, nice melody, cool chord changes, nice mix.

Well done!

Thanks for sharing,
Bruce

Hi Rob. Thanks for your assessment. I value your insight and counsel. I was fortunate to find this style after several hours of auditioning styles. I knew it was right for the song at the first bar. Unfortunately, I did not dedicate enough hours to the vocals. Truth be told, with most songs I write, the song is not intended to be sung by me. I pick some star vocalist and I write just as if they were to be the singer. The vocalist is normally chosen by the style, mood or feel of the song. This song arrangement was done with a female vocalist from here on the forum imagined as my vocalist. I shy'd away from approaching her to collaborate and ended up with my lead vocal. ;=(

The pitch issue is a legitimate criticism and I appreciate you providing the link to Gsnap and I've downloaded the software. I also already have Melodyne but did not use it on the lead vocal. As you noted, I usually complete a vocal track in one take and only correct and punch in obvious mistakes. I try working with the step method some to improve on the vocal tracks.

Thank for listening

Charlie

Hi Bruce, thanks for commenting. I really liked the way the mandolin and drums mixed together in this style and felt it drove the song pretty much how it sounded in my mind. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
