Here it is guys!!

I'll explain chord progression:
Gm7, C7/9, Gm7, D7/+9, Eb 7/9, D7/+9, Gm7 and D7/+9.

Now,DON"T be scared by these chords!!
Just jam a bit using G minor pentatonic/G blues scale/G Dorian etc.
These chords are common pattern for blues stuff and you'll find yourself comfortable to play over them.

Looking forward to hear your Blues Master Pieces!!!


Note: Start playing after/or with first drum fill.
Your tracks shall start from the same spot as this BT I provided(just to make my mixing easier)

Good Stuff Muris.

Can't wait to get Started!

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 22 2007, 04:05 AM

Dang these things fill up fast,

Sure you didn't mean 7 folks. LOL

I am sure there will be more so I may never log off again. Quit my job and sit here and wait.


<< Edit >>

Whoops, I bet you did not want unrelated post in this tread, please forgive me.

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 04:24 AM

Ok I need 7 guys.

But this is final word guys!!!

Jason,feel free to take your part in and post your version.

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Aug 22 2007, 04:28 AM

Whats the tempo Muris?

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 04:31 AM

It's 106 BPM ,6/8 is bar signature.
But you have click at the start

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Aug 22 2007, 04:38 AM

Great sounding track - but can;t we have about 10 times around each ??? I just can't play it once !

Ok, I'm going for feel and subtlety on this one ...

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 04:44 AM

Yeah,it keeps you to play over and over,but now it's just for once

So be careful with note choice and let your heart tell the story!!

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 22 2007, 05:27 AM

Cool, I will get on it and really appreciate it

Thanks Muris

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 05:30 AM

No worries,you didn't miss last train after all

Posted by: shredmandan Aug 22 2007, 05:58 AM

Hey Muris
I was just wondering is there any kind of time limit on this to get it out?I really got a few idea's already but i cant even start to try and record till tonight. Great track my the way

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 06:08 AM

Take your time Dan.

This is the deal,I'm going on vacation(well deserved I hope) on Aug 26th.
If all of you manage to finish it before 26th,I'll make the mix right away.
If not,I'll do mixing as soon as I come back,around Sept 5th.

Thanks

Posted by: Ryan Aug 22 2007, 06:19 AM

I know what you mean but i think there was suppose to 8 not 7 cant forget me. At first i wasnt ot sad about missing this, but i heard the backing and i almost cried cus i could pull some sweet with that one

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 06:33 AM

Ok,let it be 8 Ryan,but please no more participants.

I'll make more collabs in the future for sure,so all of you will find a place!!


Thanks in advance

Posted by: Ryan Aug 22 2007, 07:25 AM

AWESOME MURIS. woo this is gonna be fun.

Posted by: JVM Aug 22 2007, 07:38 AM

Great sounding BT by the way.

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 07:52 AM

I'm counting on you JVM!!!!

Posted by: Slammer Aug 22 2007, 09:33 AM

Alright, So here is My Take.


 GMC_Blues_Collab.mp3 ( 722.04K ) : 246


 GMC_Blues_Collab_with_BT.mp3 ( 722.04K ) : 274

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 22 2007, 09:42 AM

Nice! Great Job Slammer!

Posted by: shredmandan Aug 22 2007, 09:46 AM

Very good job Slammer

Posted by: Slammer Aug 22 2007, 09:49 AM

Thanks Guys,

Now lets hear yours

Posted by: JVM Aug 22 2007, 09:52 AM

Sounds great slammer

Posted by: Slammer Aug 22 2007, 10:27 AM

thanks man.

I can't wait for everyone else's take.

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 22 2007, 10:29 AM

Hey Muris
Quit test,
While working on Will's col I had a problem where I save the file at the stated tempo but it did not save that way, So if it is not to much trouble can you see if this is the right tempo before I write mine, thanks


I bet it wont be right,,


TEMPO TEST >>  Untitled.mp3 ( 143.57K ) : 163



If the first one is not right then this should be

Tempo Test 2  Untitled_2.mp3 ( 131.33K ) : 203


Good news is if the second one is right I will know from now on how to keep it right

Sorry my software is out of date I guess

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Aug 22 2007, 10:51 AM

Well heres my effort ...

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 10:54 AM

Hmm...not sure if I got this tempo matter right Jason.
Any how,you are bit OUT at the start but last few beats are OK.
Now,I don't know did you start well and went out latter on,
or you(as this take shows) started OUT and got it right latter..




Ahhh,second one if fine,didn't see it in a first place

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 22 2007, 11:07 AM

Thanks a lot what was happening was my software was exporting everything as what it calls a "One Shot"

But If I tell it to export as a Loopable file it works , Go figure while I go get the blues, thanks again

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 11:26 AM

Then Loop it and Blues it!!!!

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 22 2007, 12:25 PM

Alright, here's my bit.

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 12:35 PM

Where?

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 22 2007, 12:42 PM

ok, for real this time . I had almost ten minutes of dead air on the last one and had to abort it to cut it down to size.

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 01:11 PM

Great

Now,I'll ask you to post your track without backing as well,to put it in the mix

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 22 2007, 09:49 PM

Sorry about that! I'll get it done when I get home tonight.

Posted by: muris Aug 22 2007, 10:22 PM

ok

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 23 2007, 10:17 AM

Here ya go

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 10:32 AM

Well done,thanks!!!!!

Posted by: Ryan Aug 23 2007, 10:32 AM

sorry muris your gonna have to take me out. My recording equipment haha i mean webcam haha. Broke on me . Its time to get a new one. It was a piece anyways!!

Posted by: SDMF75 Aug 23 2007, 10:46 AM

Muris, Can we reserve a spot for JVM? I believe he wanted a stab at this one.

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 10:52 AM

Those are bad news Ryan,I'm really sorry.

JVM takes Ryan's place,ok?

Posted by: JVM Aug 23 2007, 11:02 AM

If someone can instruct me on how to take the audio out of a camera video then I'm in Otherwise I can't really for this one.

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 23 2007, 11:12 AM

Ok here is mine


With Backing >>  Blues_leedbreak_BK.mp3 ( 692.55K ) : 225



Without >>  Blues_leedbreak.mp3 ( 692.55K ) : 148

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 11:17 AM

I see...
Than we'll stay with 7 Bluesers.

Posted by: JVM Aug 23 2007, 11:17 AM

I am pretty computer savvy though so if there's some program that lets you do that I think it could be easily done..

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Aug 23 2007, 11:17 AM

BTW Muris, what did you use for the drums on this? EZDrummer? Sounds really good ...

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 11:19 AM

It's Addictive actually.
But I use EZ a lot as well,same with Artist Drums etc.

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Aug 23 2007, 11:19 AM

Cool thanks!

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 11:20 AM

No idea really.
Anyone?

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 23 2007, 11:34 AM

I try not to listen to everyone else's before recoding mine. Now that I have, man these are sweet. Blues city all the way great job everyone.

Andrew I think I will loop yours and sit around with a cold beer and just wonder ... . . .

Posted by: leedbreak Aug 23 2007, 11:46 AM

If you can hear the audio out of your computer speakers while the video plays, then that all you need right. Take a 1/8 inch cord and run it from your head phone jack back into your line in and record as the video/audio plays?
Heck of a guess, I have been know to do this to get streaming audio to record. Hehe

Like I said it is just a guess at how one might get this done.

Posted by: shredmandan Aug 23 2007, 01:42 PM

Ok so i put mine together finally.Not thrilled about it because i can already here where i could have improved on it but,satisfied enough to put it on here. i had been hitting record on an mp3 player for over an hour and i was wanting to get my first collab upload out soon.Like to thank Muris for the letting me participate in this ,it was really fun and look forward to more in the future.


Blues With Backing Track=  VORC042.wav ( 1.51MB ) : 153



Blues without Backing Track=  VORC041.wav ( 1.55MB ) : 127



Cant wait to here Mickem and Nicks upload's.The rest of you that have already posted your uploads,i really liked them and thought you did a great job.

Posted by: Ryan Aug 23 2007, 02:33 PM

I "was" using a webcam. If it helps all I did was hit the record button. I got a lot of background stuff going on, but it worked. For a camera camera type thing. Check for a usb to hook it to your computer. Then just import, either the webcam, or the camera file onto "Reaper" as a media file. Then just after that is all done and said. Just take the finished file, and import onto here.

I hope that helps JVM!!!

Posted by: muris Aug 23 2007, 09:10 PM

Slammer showed me how to record straight into my computer, so I'll be doing that. Can't promise anything by the 26th, but it might happen. I'd say 50/50 chance I can have it by then
