QUOTE (Ulrik @ Apr 11 2012, 06:24 PM)  Hi, I got some unfinished work, that I would like to add to the Army Album I got 2 whole songs, and I would like to turn my metal concepts recording to a song. I got EZdrumer now for better drums, but my local shop has been more than 2½ weeks to get me my Metal Machine expansion. Hi mate! I checked the three songs and my favourites are the first and the third one. The first one has a cool riff but need some other sections since it repeats the same idea many time. The third one sound really fresh for me, I would pick that one if you want to explore something original that can take us to unexpected results. What do you think? -------------------- My lessons

Yes, I'm just playing around with EZdrummer right now to get the drums right. You can hear it in just a minute or so

I think I'll go back to the triplets on the bass drum.
I added a little bit of guitar to the intro -------------------- |

I really like that epic introduction and then the guitar riffs with the strings arrangements. I think that you already have two introductions. It's time to create the progression for the verse and chorus. Then we can work a bit more on the arrangements of the sections that you have done. I like the style, it's something fresh for me... cirkus metal?? Sounds great! Let's go for this genre! I did a quick search with the words circus metal and this band appeared... this is so weird... QUOTE (Ulrik @ Apr 15 2012, 11:08 AM) Cool video!!

And again a new version.
I'm not satisfied with the verse guitar, I might try out other effects. -------------------- |

It seems that the room is a bit loud but don't worry to much about mix, we will concentrate on that as soon as we have the full song. The guitar distortion could be better, maybe it could be safer to always record a clean signal to allow me reamp it if it's necessary. -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (Ulrik @ May 16 2012, 04:02 PM) I'm not sure what you mean "the room is loud" but I think the bass drum sometimes is too dominating. I record with GNX4, and it is supposed to be able to record dry signals, and then I should alter them, but I never found out how. Reaper is now suddenly not making any sound for my drums. Pro Tracks which I have used a really long time now totally chops my recording to bits and plays it back in a quality, that I so horrible, that I can not record anything new. I hate, when programs that normally work just stops working. I hate computers. There I said it! yes! I call it the mystery of computers...  Have you tried re-installing Reaper or the Drums Sampler?If you open EZdrummer mixer, you will find a channel called "room" that works as a condenser mic positioned some meters far from the drums. -------------------- My lessons

Hi Ulrik! I like how this is slowly becoming a great tune! The drums sound much better now with less volume.
The idea at 1:05 is good, I would add less reverb to the tone and pay attention to some bends that don't reach the correct pitch. The harmonized guitars at 2:36 sound great! Keep on working on this one and please keep posting the updates! -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (Ulrik @ Sep 1 2012, 03:28 PM) It's been to long since I worked on this song. I still want to change the verse, but have no idea what to put instead. I added a 1 minute guitar solo at the end, what do you think? It's got a better tone now, but not perfect yet. And there are some small timing problems. I have to take some time for the bass and vocals soon. Hi Ulrik! I'm glad to have news from you again and also to find this song finished! I like the final result. I think that you should record the bass and then let this one rest for some time and start working on new songs. Then, get back to this one to adjust the parts that you would like to change (like the verse and some solo's licks). You should check my next Vchats in which I'm showing how to compose tracks based on your favorite bands/songs. You will surely find ideas and inspiration on them. Congrats on this song! As I said it earlier, it sounds very original. Are you working on technique lessons too? -------------------- My lessons
