Tabbing out SyX

as in ... does anyone have the tabs for the 5/4 bass ostinato in frontiers?

I tabbed the whole song on bass, but the main riff and the bass solo section aren't really 100% correct (but they sound good). I sent it to the webmaster MONTHS ago so it could be posted on the site, but it still isn't. I think I'll e-mail her again.

If you want the tabs, just e-mail me at cory_aglet@hotmail.com and I'll send 'em. It'll probably be a week or two before I can, though (my primary computer is being fixed right now).

yeah, the arpeggio part is a bit weird as far as fingering is concerned, but since there mostly quarter notes by the looks of it, you got plenty of time to change..the 5,2,0,4,3,4 is a bit odd, but ive seen a lot worse..
Yeah, I was wondering about that verse part too. As I said already I asked Arjen about the tuning and he said he used dropped C on this song but maybe he used D-tuning on the verse and dropped C in the heavy part/main riff. He probably didn't play it through it with one take so he had plenty of time to experiment with tunings. With D-tuning the verse arpeggios would be:

A lot easier, don't you think?
 
Hi there

I am MBR from MYsongbook and I was the first man who uploaded an SyX tab "Through the Looking Glass"
Very proud of that ;)
 
Now here the Intro of "Lady of the Snow" figured out by myself:

AND PLEASE, DONT TREAD ME CAUSE OF THE TUNING !!! If standard or one-whole-step-down Tuning is not important !

Damn. Lately I've been got into The Bird - Serpent War (Cataclysm). Yesterday I started to tab it into Guitar Pro-format. I hope I'll got it soon ready to be submitted to MySongBook.com. Yesterday I tabbed Transcendence but I'll send them in together.

I'm going to make BSW-tab the f*cking tab there's available in this universe. But we'll see about that. :loco:

Thanks man! I could never figure out those arps at the end, can't wait to jam to this now.
 
Hey 1by4by9, I'm TheDarkTemplar there.
Who made the third tab of Communion and The Oracle, why don't we work on some tabs together? I'm starting to tab Through The Looking Glass because I consider the on Msb to be kinda bad, appart it lacks most of Pinella's Stuff (which I already know), so we could tab it together. :)
 
Dressed to Kill -

That Communion tab was awesome! I heard some Pinnella parts in there that I never even knew were in the song, but then I went back and listened and heard them! You must have an awesome ear!

Hey, that could be fun. We could make helluva tab with some co-operation. What about the division of work on this one; I could concentrate more on guitars, would you like to take out the keys? And we could help each other out in difficult parts... I begin with this right away and do some guitar and bass transcription from the beginning of the song.
 
Thanks Morphine Child, but that may be because I'm a keyboardist :) (You could comment on the tab though) :loco:

1by4by9, do you have msn or something?
I have all the intro tabbed with guitar, bass, keys (piano and strings) and drums by the way, I'm starting the verse, on the first part of the verse (before the guitar enters) I'm only lacking the drums.


And Shardik, it's not to be mean, but I noticed it lacks the solos, some bass stuff, and lots of Pinella stuff, so I hope you understand :)
 
I know my TTLG tabs do not have any solos
and i did my last fix on this tab one year or more ago, so if i had the time i would work further on this

i just wanted to mention, that i submitted this tab, the first sx tab in msb :)
