Just finished the Picard voiceovers. I think I'm going to do some vocals and reamp guitars as well. Let me know if there's anything that could be changed before I print the final mix and upload to my cheesey Myspace page haha.

Sounds awesome! I really like the idea of Star Trek Metal

Any infos on the equipment you used? The guitars sound awesome! I like that "clonky" touch.

keep it comin!

Thanks guys.

Basically everything is fake haha. Drums are combo of collected/homemade samples blended with a bit of Slate except cymbals (which suck) from East West Colossus library.

Guitars are quad tracked through PodFarm with some post EQ. I didn't actually edit the guitars except for the triplet shredding which I did at like 3/4 tempo and quantized for tightness. I kind of like robot performances haha. I guess I also pulled out the silence from in between the notes in the bridge section which is maybe what you're refering to.

Bass is from Digidesign's Structure library- 25 Fingered Bass with a bit of Sansamp.

Massey plugs all over the place on the drums- CT4 and Tapehead.

That's about it! A little bit of synth from Synthmaster and Digi's Hybrid- probably hard to pick out.

I'll do some more tracks hopefully in the weeks to come featuring other TNG characters haha.

Colin - this is fucking AWESOME!

The riff that comes in at 0:43 is really cool.

What equipment are you using on this?

EDIT - you posted before I finished - thanks for the info!!

Actually - I think the guitars could come up a hair - A LITTLE BIT though.
