This is a redux of a song I did in 2011. I recently changed DAWs from Reaper to Studio One 4. I purchased a Faderport 8 and it came with the software. I want to improve my mixing skills and want to mix with a board instead of on the screen watching the meters. This was quite a learning experience as they are quite different DAWs. Missing You The band: RealBass 366 RealDrums Country Shuffle Acoustic Fingerpicked RT368 Acoustic Strummed RT364 Organ B3 RT686 (My favorite). Guitar Gibson ES 335 Amp Marshall 1974x Effects Eventide H9x2 Also played with some Automation with Volumes in the Backtrack Hope you like it

Scott,
I agree with Dave... One of your best.
Nice melodic playing. The organ is a nice balance. A nice mix. (welcome to the Studio One crowd!)
An enjoyable listen.

Hi Scott,
This song has a very good influence on me. I stayed quiet (for a while) and enjoyed the feeling this song caused. In ordinary words; I liked it much! Did Studio One 4 did this to you? Were you able to mix more easy than before? I have that Daw, but I discovered I prevered Logi Pro x more. The backside of this choice is I have to use to computers, one windows and one Apple. and I know what I can do about that, but it works fine how it is now.
It's you playing the leadguitar, isn't it? Well, your fingers are still very young, Scott. Cherish that!
Hans

That's some sweet playing! I listened through a couple of times. There are a few "clicks", such as the one at 2:59, that you might consider editing out. Or not, they're just small nits. As a Reaper fan, I'll say - use whatever works for you, and keep making music.

I think this is the best I've heard from you. That slowly ascending riff that you repeated a few times was money. Very airy guitar playing that I felt took me on a journey. Nice work!

It's always good to exercise the brain with learning new software...well maybe The word has already been used but, yep, the standout here is the melodic playing. Sublime. And a nice tone to go with it! Enjoyed it. J&B

fj Thanks as well Floyd for the awesome comments. I wanted a control surface and was flipping back and forth with a Mackie device and Faderport 8. I went with the Faderport 8 and all its features were available with the Studio One software. Quite a bit of learning curve but and go anywhere so reading and experiment has been the flavor of the day lately. Glad you liked the song. Beautiful tone on the guitar. Lovely sounds. Cheers to the band too. Thanks for checking out the song. Really glad you liked it. Thanks Stephan. Glad you like the song. You stay safe as well. Hi Scott,

Stefan Hans thanks so much for the kind words. I am really glad you liked the song. I was really please how much better I think the Studio One is from Reaper. I have even pulled out my midi keyboard which will be making its debut on the next song with Robert, I read the Logic Pro is much better for midi. Yes I am playing my E335 on this song. Glad you liked the song.

SWEET! What a sweet tone! Super chops man!
I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Scott, Beautiful playing! Considering it was your dive into new gear and software, I think you did a very good job. Can't wait to hear your next collaboration with Robert. The last one (S.Level) was super cool!
P.S. Funny, Spirit Level came up on my song list today and it sounded great! It usually means to me that song was good from the start, if it listened well weeks from first try. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Sweet tone and nice backing too. I reckon it could use a bit of a fade in. The B3 has a very Pink Floyd feel to it behind the guitar.

Scott, There`s definitely a difference in the clarity of your playing here- dunno if that`s the new gear or DAW but I like the change! Some lovely runs on this and the B3 sits behind nicely. No charge for the bump... waaaay more listens are due imo.

Scott,
Nice melody and nice playing. Very nice guitar tone. I agree with Robert. There's definitely a difference in the clarity of your playing here. It is quite difficult to change DAW, but I think that the good effect has come out immediately. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

I enjoyed listening to this. Great mood and the melody is fantastic. I could listen to this for hours.
I've only ever used Studio One and I think it's a great piece of software. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do as you get used to the new equipment and different DAW.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
