I had a request on another board for a clip to solo over that wasn't in my usual drop-C, so I tuned up to drop-D for this one. I'm going to make a few changes to it, so a version 2 will be up later (hopefully tonight), but I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Hey man, great shit. Love the aggressiveness of it all, reminds of a band off the formula 1 96' soundtrack on psx, altho i cant put a name to them right now haha. I suppose production could be a little bit more 'upfront' and clearer, but i think its a great track.

 

[AStacy2]

Sounds pretty cool, but yeah I'd like the drums to be more upfront.

 

[KeithRT99]

i like it. the drums sound good, they could e more up front as previously stated. the guits sound very solid state-y, but they still sound good.

 

[CGord]

"Up front" = louder?

 

[AStacy2]

A little bit louder, yeah and for the snare maybe work on the compression to get that crack really upfront.

I'm using the Line 6 RiffTracker setup. I can control the drums as a whole as far as pattern/tempo/reverb, but cannot eidt individual drum sounds.

I've reworked & reuploaded it; rearranged it some, made the drums louder, & shitcanned the original ending.

 

[AStacy2]

Well, maybe try less reverb on the drums to make them more upfront then.

 

[AStacy2]

Cool, the new version is definately better and on the right track

 

[CGord]

Thanks! I think the riffs fit together much better now, sounds more coherent. I usually don't turn the drums up real high; I'm a guitarist, after all!

 

[t-willy]

cool tune - as others said definitely like the aggressiveness of it. drums are still bugging me as well, a bit too roomy. not much on the "thud" kick drum. i like'em more clicky/boomy, but just personal preference.

vocals were outstanding..........seriously, throw some on there.

 

[CGord]

Vocals? Oh, hell no. If you'd like, go right ahead!
