Why are there no squeaks in the second Windowpane solo on Roundhouse Tapes?

[pyr0rrzzz]

They are omnipresent in the studio version.

 

[Jon Snow]

They're still there. Listen carefully.

 

[wokketywok]

...sqeaks?

 

[opethpainter]

probably they forgot the minidisc with the squeaks effect to be played in the background at home...

 

[Nasty-Fire]

[Arasmas]

[Tom_Vou]

for a opeth fan its beyond good, foolish question here.

Yeah, I didn't know how to call them.

 

[wokketywok]

those "squeaks" are accidental, but cool. You can't really recreate those without risking to fuck stuff up.

 

[wut wut]

Yeah, I didn't know how to call them.

Well, obviously those 'squeks' on the album version were much more likely to be captured on a studio recording. Live recordings tend to leave out a lot of the nuances of a song, because the conditions of a live recording make it impossible to record everything.

 

[Tom_Vou]

Yeah, I didn't know how to call them.

yea, to my knowledge there really isn't a name for them.

if you listen very carefully you can hear them on the live version

 

[Arasmas]

lol i used to have one of those keyboards with all the different sounds, one of them was called "GT Fret Noise" or smth and it was supposed to sound like this

 

[Tom_Vou]

ah, there ya go pyr0rrzzz, fret noise

 

[SerenityNow!]

"Squeaks" is actually right on! Good call!

 

[Widows Sulk]

lol why should it be called 'fret noise,' it doesn't actually have anything to do with the frets
