Okay I read the rules for this part of the forum. Here's what this song is made of. ****** Song Summary ************* Title: I Am Yours-A#m Song is saved with bar changes for Tempo , Time signature,RealDrums Changes, Style is M_BELIEV.STY (Pop Believe Band w/ Synth) Did not use Synth RealTrack or Held Clean Electric RealTrack.
RealTracks in style: 1536:Bass, Electric, PopBelieve Ev16 065 PlugIns: TRacks Classic Compressor and Amplitube 4 Solid State Bass Amp. Very few edits to the bass track. I think I removed 6 - 8 notes I didn't like from the entire bass track.
RealTracks in style: 1537:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopBelieveArp Ev16 065 Real Track was not used in actual mix. My gritty arpeggio guitar was inspired by some parts in the above real track. Vantage Les Paul (1984 Japanese Replica w/ Dimarzio Hum Buckers Coil Tapped in middle position. Through a Boss CS-2 compressor set rather light. Into a Fender Super Champ XD clean channel with treble all the way down. Mic'd with AKG D880 on grill in center. PlugIns: RubyTube (at max), TRacks Classic Compressor, Voxengo Stereo Touch. I quick faded in the beginning note of almost every chord/arpeggio to remove some of the CS-2s notorious pick twack sound.
RealDrums in Song: PraiseWorshipSlow16ths^1-a:H24, b:SRC PlugIns: TRacks Classic Compressor, ReaEQ, Sonitus Reverb. I cut out a whole bunch of drum notes to thin it out a little. Probably would choose a different RealDrums or midi drums for this song.
Strings started out as 2 midi tracks from –MICHEL1.STY. Slow Pop Orchestra. I did a lot of midi editing in Reaper which made it very easy and accurate. PlugIns; On main string track; Cakewalk SI-Strings default preset, Voxengo Stereo Touch. On second string track; Cakewalk SI-Strings default preset, JS:Delay w/tempo Ping Pong. Guitar Solo: Schecter PT Special Proto Type, never went into production. Hand made at the Schecter factory in California. I think it was Torrence at the time. Has hand made hum buckers called MonsterTone by Schecter. Recorded off the Super Champ XD Voice Channel with moderate drive. PlugIns: JS:Delay w/Tempo Length. Solo is doubled via copy track. Panned hard left and right. Delays are faint and tempo sinc’d opposite each other for a ping-pong spread.
Vocal is a Behringer B2 Pro under heavy quilts hung from curtain rods bolted down to the top of a tall shelf. I did 4 takes straight through the whole song with the song looped. No breaks. Then I comped together the best sections. The vocal is botched in my opinion. Flutters, diction, pitch and timing issues. It is intended to be a temporary example for the actual singer. Something to practice with. But, if he/she wants to express it completely different that’s okay with me. PlugIns: Melda Products; MAutoPitch, MEqualizer, MCompressor, Voxengo Tube Amp, Voxengo Tempo Delay.
Acoustic Guitar; Takamine P3DC into a Zoom GFX-1 with EQ and 4x12 Cabinet emulator. No amp emulator. Just the cabinet. This track is double via copy track. Both tracks are panned right. 1st track 20% right so it’s kind of near the middle. 2nd track is 90% right to create some space.
Master Channel PlugIns; Voxengo Span, Voxengo Old Skool Reverb, Voxengo Marvel GEQ, JS Soft Clipper/Limiter.
Recording, Editing, Mixing done in Reaper. My first project in Reaper. Big step up from Power Tracks 10 and RealBand 2016 and Audacity.
Reaper ran stable the whole time. No latency, no crashing, no stubborn refusal to find, use or process any plug ins at all. I spent a lot of time watching Reaper Tutorials. Special Thanks to Kenny Gioia.
Does the noise in your head bother me ?
