Thanks for checking out the song. Some of the songs I have collaborated on have vocals but not me singing. Glad you liked the song. More to come in 2022

That was a peaceful few minutes of gliding. Very pleasant textures. I thought the lead guitar was almost Marvinesque.


My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile smile

"theremin-esque" --great word, Mark. Perfect, except the notes were more right on. Right on, Scott. What a wonderful duet. I've come to see three Ts when I hear your guitar. Taste, tone and technique. You're a lock, man.


Enjoy whatever happens!

A lot of cool sounds going on here Scott! The synth sound is great and it was interesting hearing a darker tone on your guitar! Thanks, Torrey

Thanks Mario. Was also thinking of you when creating the song as you loved to use synths and midi when creating your songs. Combining BIAB and Studio One makes for some very cool soundscapes.

Outstanding Scott.

It took a lot of talent (both musical and tech wise) to create this.

The varied guitar chop/tones, the synth and the organ work togethers so well. Kudos.

Excellent mix too.

Great start to the new year for sure!

Very pleasing and restful piece Scott.
Speaking as a bass player I would have chosen a simpler track without the little runs but that's just my preference.
Good one.

Now I understand why you didn't ask me to do the singing in your song...

Hands down this is a very strong composition and guitar play, Scott.
I enjoyed it!

Hans



Thanks for checking out the song Hans. I had been working on the song for quite awhile. This one took me some time to put together. Right in the middle I decided to start playing my keyboard again and had to relearn how to record with i.
I have been interested in the vocaloid since hearing David and Shigeki's song. I came across this vox patch and it sounded cool. Glad you liked it.

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks

MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:

There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:

1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track
