noynekker Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Well done ! . . . really liked the super edgy guitar with that big warm tone. Expertly bent in the guitar solo section. Your aggressive (assertive) vocals, (more than your usual ?) totally work to support the lyric, could those harmony vocals come up a touch ? Not sure if you're done with this one . . . but, I'm hearing some of the drum fills could be edited to help the flow between the sections . . . they are in time I think, but work against the guitar feel in places, and the guitar feel is what drives the song along to my ear, drums more of a back beat. For sure another great song and recording, always look forward to having a listen when you post something new . . . this one is certainly a showcase of your guitar talents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Good rockin' song, I like the guitar riffs. I would bump up the bass. It feels like there are some timing issues here and there, maybe go through and check with some audio transients. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn Wilson Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Terrific song, Paul! As noted above, there are a few awkward transitions, timing-wise, but those can be fixed. The rest of the mix is just fine. Your voice is just right, and the guitars rock. The mix is so good that those timing issues are clear, so I hope you take a little time to finalize this. It's well worth it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark skinner Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Cool one ! Great guitar playing and tone Paul. I sure hope to hear a remix before too long but I sure wouldn't rush it. I agree with Bruce about the harmonies needing a boost. They sounded Fantastic. Enjoyed it .. mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Smithe Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) Cool tune Paul! Well produced and performed. I like the song structure, good hooks. Guitar work is top-notch, and nice vocs too! As has already been said, the only thing I really hear would be to tighten up the rhythm, and definitely bring up the background vocals. Great work! I followed you on SoundCloud by the way. 👏👏🎶🎶🎶 Edited August 31, 2023 by Ross Smithe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Vere Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Yes agreed as above good song Idea and structure but the music is totally out of time to the drums. Almost sounds like you added the drums later. If the original part was recorded without a metronome then drag the guitar ? track to the timeline to create a tempo map. Then you can use that to quantize the drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Use the audio transients, you can see any timing issues. Record the drums to a track and first sync up the bass and drums, then go from there. Bass can be moved around pretty reliably but guitar sometimes can get weird if stretched or shrunk very much to get in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajan Blue Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Hi Paul Really good track and some great guitar playing - agree with Bruce re some of the transitions and the harmonies Cool Nigel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vere Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Using transients is sort of the older method that still can be used but drag and drop tempo extraction is much quicker when it works. And you do need Melodyne installed. I’ll add that once you extract a tempo map an additional step is required to line up the original audio to the grid. Turn on ripple edit. Now select all CTRL A. And drag whole song and line up the first down beat to 2nd or 3rd measure downbeat. Turn off Ripple edit. The whole song should now follow the metronome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bush Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 Hi Guys ,Once agian thanks for all the input .... well Ive been hard at it just tweaking the drums (fills) (EZdrums 2 ) and then in the midi channel and then cleaning up some slightly sloppy playing ie bass and guitar , moving the beats around in the midi channel is so time consuming but I think i may have have cracked it (playing a hell of a lot air drummer)..cheers P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
