Thanks for the tab Mitch, it's real awesome of you to do that and I will compare it to the version in the AYDY tab book. Do you think it is very accurate? I will use Mannerheim's version of the last fast run aswell. Do you have like all the Rockhouse Method tabs? Just curious. I know what you mean about them being wrong. I corrected some of the ITF tab from Rockhouse by ear but when I watched the vid, Alexi played it the way I corrected it! AND Alexi plays Mannerheim's version of the 2nd fast run on the vid too which Rockhouse also stuffed up!]
It's no problem. And apart from the blues scale run near the end, it's exactly the same as the album version, therefore, accurate. I wouldn't expect the tab book to be correct...

Also I notice you guys do covers of COB songs in Drop C and D standard. Is it possible to put the low E string in D from C easily or does it still require re balancing the bridge by loosening the springs and all
It's easier to go from E standard to D standard, then it is to go from D standard to Drop C, because with standard to standard, you're dropping all the strings by the same amount, so if you adjust all the springs equally, it's actually only a 30sec job. But to drop just the 6th string down a whole step while keeping the others all the same can take a bit longer. If you have new strings, it can be a pain.

Do you guys use GP4 instead of 5 to make your tabs? If so why? I have no idea how to use GP to make songs, I can tab it all but I don't know how to change the timing so my tabs are only good for looking at cus when you play them they are slow
I prefer GP4 just because of the way it works. They changed quite alot on version 5 and I just can't get used to it. Plus, the RSE sounds terrible, to me.

I am going to have to disagree with you on the chorus riff of Angels Don't Kill
On your tab it says --------10--- but on the CRY ADK performance Alexi goes -5/7---7- The close up of it is just before the 1st solo.
_________________-10/12----12-_____________________________________------7---
If you could give me a time from the video, I can look at it, but I'm not sure what part you're referring to. I have re-listened to the album version of ADK and I still hear the notes I tabbed. I listened to various live versions before I posted it too.

Follow the Reaper
I think the keyboard is more accurate in my tab than the tab on the 1st page of this thread
Bodom After Midnight
I've corrected the tab (some bars sounds wrong with the rythm guitars like on bar 10, but I worked with the left pan & right pan slowly)
(and maybe there are few differences between the 2nd Mix & the 1st mix of Follow the Reaper, I've done the tab of the 1st mix)
Children of Decadence
Mask of Sanity
I think the keyboard parts are accurate (not the solo), and I think the Harmony solo (guitar/keyboard) is correct.
Maybe a few mistakes with harmonics.
Kissing the Shadows
Look only on the intro Lead Guitar & all the keyboard parts (I mute the others pists), I think they are few corrections.
Downfall
Only look at the keyboard Parts, I've corrected them
And fot the NC tab :
Northern Comfort
Not finished, I've done the rythm guitars & the keyboard parts.
Bass is inaccurate (not worked on it) and I've not worked yet on a lead guitar for the Chorus and the guitar Solo.
(working with Adobe Audition)
Follow The Reaper: I think this tab is loads better than the one in the first post (I got it from some random tab site, so that's why it's crap) and after I mess about the the dynamics of the drums (sounds cooler), I will put it in the first post.
Bodom After Midnight: Same as above...
Will look at others another time.

My last ETID
I've worked a lot on it, I've tried to correct the harmonics and I listened again (I still have a problem to know what are the notes of the harmonics)
I've changed the intro lead guitar (Arcane's Fingerring on his video) and corrected some fingerrings.
I've also corrected the bass parts and I've changed the rythm guitars on the interlude. (And corrected a few things again in the rythm sections of the solos)
This is better sounding than ours, so I will use this after I do the dynamics on the drums.

(btw I just spotted this little typo on the Scorpions cover, on the opening post, it says don't stop at the stop)
Well spotted, now corrected.
HAemlock said:
And now, Northern Comfort
Sounds good to me. If there are any corrections to be made by yourself or anyone else, then they are to be listed here and we can all sort it.

Deadnight Warrior (corrrection from my last tab)
(see the notice in the tab for precisions)
Now it is much accurate, but I didn't correct perfectly the outro.
The keyboard, the rythm guitars & the solo are quite accurate (the solo on the album version is not exactly the same of the lives versions)
& I've seen on the TDE tab that the first part of the guitar solo isn't very accurate, so I've corrected a few things.
TDE Solo
bars 4-5-6 are now accurate (perfect ?)
Bars 8-9-10 are more accurate (hard to tab this part, I've corrected by slowing down the track & listening it again & again)
Bar 14 a little thing corrected (& verified)
Bar 21-22 : it's just my way to play this part, no corrections
(if you want to verify, i've a MP3 of the solo with the others instruments quite muted here)
And I've also corrected the Black Widow tab
Main Corrections :
All keyboard parts (and i've added some parts)
In the bridges (classical part) I've changed the fingerring of the guitars and corrected few notes
I've corrected few bar of the rythm guitars in the part II of the chorus
In the classical interlude i've add my fingerring for the lead guitar
For the 2nd chorus the right rythm guitar is corrected
And I've corrected the rythm guitars for the Guitar Solo
I didn't touch the drum & bass
Will sort out Deadnight Warrior later, will do Towards Dead End, and will look at Black Widow. I think you're right with the keys, I missed some out during the interludes, so I will add those.

Bed of Razors
Not perfect, but much better than the other versions. Bar 89 is hard to tab.
For the gutiar solo section I've copied the solo of the forum (and added an harmony guitar)
Sounds good, will add once the drums are done.
And I have listened to Arcane's solo mp3 and these are the correct notes for the Towards Dead End solo and these are the notes that will go into the first post by the end of today.
