You gotta think OUT OF THE BOX....

Using bar settings, adjusting the bar length, using holds and shots and pushes, etc..... Then you also have to set down and think, puzzle, contemplate, and then figure out how you could use the tools you have to achieve the desired goal you want. All things are possible but some are much harder than others.

Trying to replicate ANY cover tune exactly is kinda like a MISSION IMPOSSIBLE scenario. To even get close, you have to be able to play the parts that are unique and give the song it's character and be able to figure out work-arounds for those seemingly impossible brick walls you will encounter.

Otherwise, you have to settle for close and kinda sounds like the cover. I've done a couple of covers and for 2 of them, I decided to do "my version" .....and the other two.... I spent time learning and playing and recording the signature licks that gave the song it's identification. Finally, I mixed them in a DAW rather than trying to construct a faithful cover in BB. It was just much easier to use the DAW.
