This surely shows you know how to bring that out in others, too. Wonderful sounds.


Thanks Marty. Get a few choice words when I turn the gain up a bit too. Thanks for checking out the song. Glad you liked it.

Thanks for a quick time travel back to a fun part of my life and when music and movies were truly entertaining without all the over-production. Love it!!!

Thanks Alan for the awesome comments. Loved the music from those old movies. Glad you like the song.

Hi Scott,

it's very often a good idea to dig in one's own musical history... Very nice tune, sounding fresh and clear. Very well-done.

All the best,

Stefan

Personally I think that left panned guitar should be more center and maybe a couple db louder seeing as it's the main voice, but that's a minor thing and just my opinion smile

Enjoyed as I enjoy all your instrumentals. [/quote

Thanks Dave. Interest when I first started playing again the type of music I gravitated too. Remember doing wipeout when we were kids. Was easy to play to. Not so much for the drummers. Glad you liked the song

[quote=Birchwood]Hi Scott,

You did this in 2011! It's a very nice melody and I heard no trace of midi (the artificial sounding sounds).
The tempo is just right for this song. Mayby Robert?

And I was thinking; with your knowledge of BiaB now, how would you do this song now?
Heavier drums, fatter bass, stronger leadguitar etc.? A vocal perhaps? Maybe Robert?

It was a pleasant listen!
Hans



These new vst's and virtual instruments are incredible how. I created the midi file for the strings by dragging the chord track from the BIAB DAW plugin and added the strings from the BBC Symphony vst. Big thanks to Floyd for the heads up for the free BBC Symphony plugin..
As far as how I would develop it now not sure. I did redo the original guitar tracks and they were pretty repetitive. Vocal will would be a great Idea I think. Will see if Robert or Ray have any ideas for it..

We loved the entire production and especially those melodic chops! Sweet tone too.

Lol By the time I created a new song it was down to about 30 secs. Then on to the new one. Glad you liked it. I have a few more to choose from now.
