RexRed Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) Hey awesome Cakewalk peeps! Here is a work in progress new song! Currently it is a train wreck. Yes, it has a pedal steel in it but it sounds so bad I turned it WAY down. I couldn't find any pedal steel samples in this weird key, F# Why did I make it in F#? I thought it was in G. Oh well, I have not added a solo instrumental yet, I am thinking of an electric guitar solo. It needs a lot of editing and it seems to drift on aimlessly. I did not write the lyrics and then make it (which is weird). I wrote the lyrics as I was laying down the vocals. Sing a few lines and write some more... etc. I can't remember ever doing that before. Any and all comments are welcome. No drum rolls or cymbals yet. It seems like a goopy mess to me right now but it has its promise. I have been thinking of adding finger cymbals played by Buddhist monks but I have yet to find samples of that also. (just kidding) Hope you like what I have so far! Best to you peeps!

RexRed Posted August 27, 2021 Author Share Posted August 27, 2021 I added the guitar leads, I am not all that pleased with it but... I cut out most of the pedal steel and turned up what I did not cut out. Fixed a bunch of other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornpdx Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Well, hardly a train wreck. And anyway, you've been blessed with that great country voice that grabs all the attention. If you hadn't mentioned the pedal steel, I guess I wouldn't have thought it was missing. But since you mentioned it, I think it would sound really good here. I like the Indiginus Steel Guitar which is fairly easy to control the various articulations, it sounds pretty good and the price is right (though you need the full Kontakt sampler) -Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
