It's been awhile since I posted a song. I have really been trying to push the real tracks and create some interesting instrumentals in the rock genre. This submission follows my usual practice of creating solo guitar real tracks by custom editing multiple generated tracks. In this case I used 12 tracks of a couple different soloist that had a similar feel but not the same if that makes sense.

All guitar tracks were rendered in DI and custom simulated amps added. In some cases I edited the tracks down to the individual beat. I like to think that it sounds fairly seamless but that may just be by bias. The only added item that is not a real track is the chime at the bridge. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi Jeff,

Sounds great! Your editing sounded seamless to me, too. There's a lot of skill on display with what you've done. Impressive!

All the best,

Thanks for the kind reply's. I'm pretty sure I have just scratched the surface of what's possible with this program and the real tracks. Imagination is the limit.

DI is short for direct input. PG Music has wisely given us the dry recorded guitar signals (no added amps or effects) of most but not all the guitar real tracks. This is truly the best part of the guitar real tracks because you can add your own amp simulation and effects to the signal.I add mine in my DAW.

It allows for a truly customized sound plus I feel it smooths out the variance in tones produced by the original real tracks. Some sound great with the original sound but when BIAB generates the real track it can sometimes sound pieced together because the recorded tones don't blend well. This doesn't usually pose a problem if your doing a short solo or fill but it's almost impossible to do a whole song featuring a soloist track with the original recorded tone.

I hope they continue the trend and make sure all future guitar tracks include the dry tracks. Also several guitar tracks don't have DI shots and holds available which would be nice if they could fix that but overall it's a fantastic feature.

I like to think that it sounds fairly seamless but that may just be by bias..............I guess I have the same bias! It flows great!! Really great instrumental jamming. Brings me back to the 70's. Loved it! Take care. Greg

Jeff can you tell me how to find the DI guitar tracks. I would like to work with these tracks exclusively on my next song.
