I'm the guilty one
both for coming up with this, and for not
making it work....
I was supposed to play the background melody,
and then send it on. The song became 4 minutes
long, and I did several retakes, but I never
managed to get it all right...I also had
pretty much stuff in school at that time
(last year in senior high, it was).
If anyone still is interested, then we could
re-attempt this
The whole idea is this:
The first guy plays the background melody for the
whole song, encodes it to mp3, and sends it to
the next dude. That guy uncompresses it to wav,
and records another layer of music. This will
probably be saved as a new file. This would
give us the possibility to do some mixing in the end.
When that guy is finished with his part,
he encodes it, and sends it back to the first guy.
The first guy now has two separate files. He
does a rough mixing of them, and sends that
file to the 3rd person on the list, who records
his part, and sends it back to the first guy.
He now has 3 files. He does a rough mixing
of those 3, and sends to the 4th, and so on.
We, of course, have to use metronome, so drums
can be added later on.
The only prob about this way of doing it is
the workload on the first guy, but if we do
one layer a week, it wouldn't be much at all
