Actually very good. Would recommend. For people who thought that you fatten (phatten) up your drums using eq or saturation, nah you been doing it wrong (same as me) you do it like this apparently. https://www.cableguys.com/snapback What is Snapback? Cableguys and electronic music pioneer BT bring the art of drum layering into one fast, focused effect. Just put Snapback on any drum track and it detects each hit, layering new samples on top in perfect time. Now you can add punch, style and flair that EQ, compression and distortion cannot. Still missing that magic? Layer special snapback samples before the transient – a secret trick of pro producers for "living" grooves, available for the first time in an easy plugin.

A picture of the Tefal man for reference

imo, in the world of DAWS and the battle to be the best and each one wanting / having to out do each other, each iteration needs to find an extra USP, something that a competing one doesn't provide, this produces never ending and ceaseless levels of complexity, causing the end user the need to have a forehead the size of a tefal man just to do a song. I would guesstimate in 5 years time you will need a university degree to use one. A masters degree to learn one (including £30,000 debt probably).

yes.

Maybe keep your takes on separate tracks, and use some clever editing/ cut and pasting to get your perfect take ? like they used to do in the old days splicing tape ?

thanks for the feedback appreciate it. What I learned getting back from my hiatus from creativity is not to overthink it and just go with the flow of it, like a surfer jumping on a wave, don't get too bogged down in trying to control the outcome of where the song is taking you, this was a bit different to how I have done things previously, I would imaging there are many ways to approach it. As for the song writing, that is something I would like to have a go at, but it is quite an alien concept to me, I think song writing is a special skill, especially making it work with music. I could probably write a good poem instead. I am now re-inspired once more, thanks again.

I can't be bothered 😂 Anyone who want's to hear it will have to press twice. It is strange about the bandlab button going missing.

you would think it would be the one place you would be able to do it.

https://www.bandlab.com/post/4c224db8-2d92-ef11-8474-6045bd375453 Unable to embed a bandlab player on here for some reason? if anyone knows how ? thanks

Shame you can't embed html players on here, I'll find somewhere to host it somewhere later today. 👍

I'd describe the track as techno/breakbeat infused country and western, possibly a new genre. Breaking down barriers. Next one, possibly a jungle remix of -Tammy Wynette - Stand by your man.

Cheers folks, its an hmtl player, you copy/paste the link, a player opens up

I'm guessing they will still be online ?

The finished creation, thanks for the inspiration folks. file:///E:/Reaper%20Saves/project%202/Mr%20No%20Name%20-%20Boy%20named%20Sue%20(remix).mp3

great plugin, just discovered it.

When you own a "Mac" you do as you're told.

there's been a "thumbs downer" 👎 must have recently spent £600 on an accordion vst that wasn't as good as that one.

The Jonny Cash - Boy named Sue Acapella vocals and a bassline for tempo/metronome, for anyone else who wants to join in for a bit of fun, the traditional guitar folks might try a techno or hip hop mix ? I've set a deadline of next Sunday for my own one, Could be interesting ??? https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/pr152grbcdmxksc0du6hh/A-Boy-Named-Sue-In-the-Style-of-Johnny-Cash-Performance-Track-with-Demonstration-Vocals-2.mp3?rlkey=ysv8nkx7wtaa9gxmqr83ut9un&st=ppotmn1l&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/v8an2qi729qx4dk6mmeg1/A-Boy-Named-Sue-In-the-Style-of-Johnny-Cash-Performance-Track-with-Demonstration-Vocals.mp3?rlkey=an5tnp2nzcla6rqbph4etamml&st=2x1fu87j&dl=0

Thanks for the ideas folks, I have decided with not much thought, to do a dance music remix of Jonny Cash- A boy named Sue. why I have no Idea, was the first thing that came to my mind, I'll make it 2 x speed as original (with same speed lyrics obviously) I will have it completed in a week (next sunday) thanks for the inspiration.

What motivates me to create music ? I suppose it's the journey from silence to a finished piece of music, creating something which is original and interesting, maybe getting involved because of being a fan of listening to music in all its forms. I would best describe myself as a hobbyist, I have no aspirations for a music career or to be famous, I see music making totally in an artistic sense, and money has no influence on it. I have never written a song, but was thinking recently it would be interesting to learn about the art of song writing, I create "electronic" music, I don't play any instruments apart from a bass which I use to strum a few very basic basslines. I have no plans to become a bass player, It basically about about the creative process and ending up with something which is "music" It's also a personal challenge to create something. At the minute I'm struggling for motivation,

I think possibly what my problem is, I used to use some small amount of hardware in a set up and used to enjoy jamming on that, that was dismantled about a year ago, and finding it difficult to find motivation "in the box" A soft synth is as good as a hardware synth (well maybe not) but it should be good enough, I may create a new "software studio space" that might inspire a bit, rather than being sat at a sofa and a coffee table, I am thinking a dedicated "studio space" has to be an integral part of the creative process ?

Definate bug, 5 different people have the same problem.

Like you have just done in this thread clearly.
