Ok, time for some info ! The track is made up of 2 sections.

Section 1 is just a repeating melody which you can choose to record or not. I've recorded 2 lead tracks, 1 low and 1 an octave higher. My aim is to leave this section as it is with melodies so if you want to record that melody on the guitar please do so and I will add it to the mix. Also, if you would like to figure out a harmony for it then feel free. Basically, this part is optional and is there to sound good and break up the solo sections.

Section 2 is where we're going to play our solos. The chord progression is Am, Em, Dm, Am, G - Am, Em, Dm, E, F, G. You can use the A minor scale over the whole thing and just alter it when you get to the E chord in the second run through. Hear you may want to use A Harmonic Minor / E Phrygian Dominant(Major)

What I will need from you is:

-Full mix of your takes for reference (this can can be mp3)
-Bare guitar tracks (this can be wav)
-Video footage (please leave audio with the video if you can)

Feel free to upload your takes in this thread for feedback and send the final tracks/video to me via Dropbox, Rapidshare etc..

Deadline is Friday 29th March !!

But I've never played Skyrim!!!!

Hey Ben, love the idea and setup! Chord progression and backing sound really good too.

Count me in on this.

FUS-GUI-TAR!

I'm in!

Bless the angels that made you start a new collab

Oh hell yeah. I'm definitely in!

There is, of course, an opportunity for Ze German to try out a new outfit..........

I might use my old Dragon Slayer costume...

OMG!! This is so brilliant. My favorite game series, Elder Scrolls !!! I will make time to contribute for this one

I never been playing Skyrim too but the picture says all to me ..

The ancient fight is still not ended so lets go for it !

Dieter

Yep I'm in

This vid pretty much sums up the whole game


really looking forward to see what you guys come up with
there sure will be ppl. with strange horned helmets.
and I heard some folks over in Hammerfell have got curved guitars.... CURVED.... guitars...

Excellent Ben.... now let us go forth and take no nonsense!

Dude you so reminded me of the other video that goes at hand with this!

Bless the Gods it's a BEN COLLAB!!!!! Great to see you back with a killer COLLAB!!! You had me at "skyrim"

this is my take over the second track...

Broke my low e string on my parker getting the bending pitch right for the first 2 bends...hahhahaa

We should have next collab of Red Dead Redemption or assassins creed...taht would awesome...

That is amazing !!

When you guys have some takes, just send 'em over to me at my place in Whiterun. Chances are I'm either skulking about in Riften or out with Aeola the Huntress, kicking some ass, so I'll get to them first chance I get



Welcome to the collab !

Is there any chance you could compose something for the second part with the acoustic guitars ? I'm trying to leave the heavier main section as it is, with jut some guitar harmonies happening

You're doing gaming now, instead of doing teaching at GMC!!

LOL!!!

Ben, remind me, can you use a .m4v video file?

Hail Ben !

Her some record idea

Yes, pretty sure they're ok



Yo, Dieter !! Wow, there's some brilliant melody lines in there and possibly the nicest tone I've heard from you yet - well done

Here's my effort. Looking forward to the rest of the takes. Have a good one guys!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M22-GYQRqoQ here's my take, ben i have no idea how to send you the wav files!! or video either.


ok nvm i figured it out hahah

What a playin' Greg!! You should be a teacher here!!

I like how you look at the camera in the end like "Its over already?" But great take



Awesome! Mind if I ask you how you achieved that tone? I love it



Killer take, as always

Hell yeah, what a classic take from the Greg Man !!



Great take - glad to have you onboard for this !

That's what I'm talkin about right there.... Dieter, your determination is shining through my friend. Ben nailed it, you have some excellent and tasteful melody here...... And that tone is killer! Excellent job sir!




I just looked up "Bad A$$" and found your video Greg! That was very nice indeed.




That was really a cool bit of work there mate! Nicely played!

Hey Slav, really appreciate it man.

Sammetal92, thanks man. For my tone I use Guitar Rig 3. I have a bank with 4 patches that I pretty much exclusively use. If you have GR I'd be glad to send it over to you.



Thanks Ben. Good to be back in the mix of things.


Mroberts70, hahaha, thanks a lot man. I really appreciate it.

I have guitar rig 4, I don't know if GR3 patches would load on GR4 but send it to me and I'll see what I can do, and thanks!

They will!

And Greg, while you're at it...could you send the presets to me as well?
Awesome take, by the way!

Messages incoming to both of you guys!

Awesome!



Thanks loads!

First idea

This recording is kinda crap, so I'll prolly redo, but it's an idea...

Yo Mark, this works ! Love the whammy and the ..err.. whammy !!

Here is my take!

The video madness will follow later today...

Insane takes you know, insane in a good way

Epic take from Ze German !! I was waiting to see if C***y T***n would somehow make an appearance but I guess that sometimes there comes a backing track that demands nothing but the utmost respect

Yeah, I wanted to surprise you this time

And show some respect since you composed this after having cheese on toast for breakfast.

Hier ist ze video:

ze video neetz to be unprivatized

Done zat now!

So it's too much whammy?

No I meant the whammy pedal.. and the whammy bar !

Oh, so you meant like a.... double whammy?

He's on fire !!!

Jammed up a rather exercisesque take.

Figured it's been a while since I landed on a 9th.

woah, great stuff so far!

Here is my take.

Oh hell yeah! Really solid stuff H4H and Degroot.

here's my 2nd take since the first one I lost a file changed it a bit.
hopefully this one works! i guess that's what i get for drinking a playing on the last one lol
