    I play the song and imagine the drums playing in my head and then find the rhythm in my drum software that sounds like it. Sometimes I have to rearrange the kick and or snare to get what I want.  Even when I get a good bass performance I find I need some minor moving of notes to align with the drums, really makes a song sound so much tighter when you do that and I find it kind of fun to do. Read up on audio transients in cakewalk editing.

    I like MEquilizer to dial in my rhythm guitar sounds, it's a free plugin. You can boost or cut a tone and then sweep it back and forth to find where it sounds good. If you haven't watched any creativesauce youtube cakewalk videos yet I found him really helpful to learn how to do things in cakewalk, he puts things in a simple understandable way.

  1. A great track. Really good playing and great guitar tones. Liked the harmonized stuff. On my phones the drums might be a little loud, I found the snare a bit of a focus point. Of course that is to taste. You guys are amazing, I'm a fan.

    I like your song, it's pretty, nice chord changes. Sometimes the bass sounds slightly off the beat, but that's easy to fix in cakewalk. I think it would sound good if some drums came in in the middle of the song too (and or congas).

  2. Thanks! For some reason that scale made itself apparent in that spot which inspired the middle eastern vibe. Every thing happens by ear for me, I have no idea what scale I'm playing some times, other than pentatonic .
