yeah, just for the start and like just to make the whole thing sound bigger than Jeffs ballclaps. Or maybe we should do the subdrop FROM the Jeffs ballclaps?
something like this for the TADA? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1338211/holydiver_tada_v1.mp3
edit: the cymbalpart at 3:30-3:38 was also sticking out nastily, maybe copy the hihat part from 3:50-3:58 there instead as it sounds pretty good?

played around a little with the kick and snare + changed the ride and the intro cymbal. Also added the bassdrop^^ no ballclap included lolz
(please ingnore the mistrigged snares)
Is the ride now more your taste Anssi? I still have some others, but this one sounds the clostest to the sound you described.
gonna take a look at the cymbal part from 3:30 - 3:38 after some sleep.......
The Synthz sound cool imo!
Hahaha "and I listen to the kickdrum when the solo kicks in and I JIZZ, IN, MY PANTS"

this is turning out muuuch cooler than I expected, I still haven't recieved an answer from Plague rider or Loren about doing the bass and vox, so I'll tell you what, if by sunday there's no bass I'll do it myself is that ok? I can't help on vocals though hahaha
I do know a guy who could do it, he's also gonna do Neon Knights, if Loren doesn't answer I could contact him
EDIT: I didn't check my pms when I logged in today, I actually got answers from both of them! Plague rider has the bass nearly finished, he will post the DI when he has it done tommorrow night, so it's all god with that.
Loren had to decline doing the vocals he's super busy till september, so we need someone else. If you guys know of anyone please conttact him, if not I can contact my guy

PM'ed you about the Synths Anssi!
Dani: Cool about the bass!
A pity about Lauren.....the only one I know who could do this would be my GF, but I dunno if you want female Vocals on that cover?
Maybe you should contact that guy!

hey guys, so sorry i haven't chimed in on the thread, but as Dan said i've been working on the bass tracks, i've been going along with just the drums as they were on wednesday, but tonight i'm gonna d/l the last update Mago threw on here and record to that in case theres any change in feel. I'm also questing to find my decent picks as i started with a purple tortex (not my usual bass pick).
Mago: just to make sure its still cool, i'm just sending you a DI yes?? you have no problem putting the bass through whatevers needed??

Well it´s the team´s choice, not mine, but I think if your girl sings good enough it would be great to have a female vocalist, would sound very fresh compared to the other covers. Just my thought, you guys decide!

I wouldn't mind actually having BOTH male and female vocalists on the same song, for example on the chorus it might sound really cool to have dual harmonies like "between the velvet lies (male) theres a truth as hard as (female) steel! (both)".
edit: And still on the synths; I am having the usual problem... Too many options to choose from, so I give the ball to you. What do you guys think, which variation sounds best and if the best one needs any changes notewise?
Variation A
Variation B
Variation C
Variation D

Some of the extra parts you added in were badass dude!!!!!!
Anssi: I think its between C & D for the synth sound... the chords i'm not trained enough to start talking about... lol

Just downloaded the bass and synths, gonna import them now 
edit: just saw that the synths are mixdowns for listening. I think A is the easiest to go with. The chordenlargement would sound cool, but I think it gets a bit difficult, and Im not that strong with that kind of chord stuff tbh^^
edit 2: made a basssound and now its off to some editing
thanks Gary, the basstrack also has a really groovy/nice vibe and you got what I was up to do with the cover perfectly

Well, the only bigger difference what I did was that I played major/minor chords, 1 3 5 (for example A C# E for major and A C E for minor) when you played power chords, 1 5 8 (A E A), so not that big of a change there
edit: but what do you think about the slightly droney/dreamy pads under the verses?
