jwnicholson78 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I thought it sounded great! The EZbass and EZKeys laid a great foundation for your guitar to shine. The only thing that didn't really work for me was the opening cymbol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I threw the backing track together with the aid of ToonTrack's Modern Pop bass, keys, and drum midi. There are some titling inconsistencies, but its not hard to figure out. I guess I'd classify it as a "cue", or "bumper" maybe? (something I know nothing about) It did have the intended result; I'm starting to "bond" with EZbass, getting a little more fluent with EZkeyes, learning to edit inside of SD3, and it pushed me to write a quick solo (that wasn't a 12 bar blues) and tighten up my chops. Is it "perfect"? Nope! At some point I'll go back and get the guitar part "right" and "massage" the midi a bit more. For now I'm on to the next "cue". We need a bit more interaction between the Songs Forum and the Deals Forum. A lot of "bought it, installed it"; but very little "this is what I did with it". So here's the tech info:EZkeyes Modern PopEZbass Modern PopSD3 Modern Pop Grooves SofTube Marshall Silver Jubilee: '67 Classic (not sure I "love" this) SofTube Celestion Speaker Shaper: 2 4 x 10 cabs with Celestion Blue and G12 Heritage, both with Alnico magnets. I think I've "bonded" with this one. IKM's FAME Studio emulation; 3 instances of Studio A; Guitar (1), Keys (2) Drums and Bass (3). Warren Huart has a pretty good tutorial on FAME here. IKM's Lurssen Console (Pop Rock-more glue) on the Master Buss followed by fabfilter Pro-L2 set at +1.4, ceiling at 0.5dB Scores 11.7 on LUFS scale in iZotope Insight The title? one of the midi variations I used was titled This Is It. As always, would love your crits and comments; don't be afraid to "lean" on me a little; I have broad shoulders... t Energetic rocky feel to this Tom with pacy beats to go along... quick and crisp piece... Good one ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB01 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 EzBass is smoking on this - I'm still struggling to get really decent results with it (I think I lack the patience to really get under the hood of it), but it's still better than I can do manually with a MIDI keyboard. This definitely sounds worthy of further investment to me, then again I can talk, I must have a dozen half-built, half-written songs and uncompleted projects on EzKeys. ?

Lynn Wilson Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 This is good, Tom, it really has potential. Good tones all around and a good performance. I hope to hear more! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoisp Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Nice one Tom , sounds like a strat on the second to bottom switch, you was flowing getting in the groove. I'm totally uninspired myself, over stressed with a few things. maybe i will start something next week, still in middle of doing my templates but taking a break, keep rocking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeEarCandy Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Not familiar with any of the toys you used, so not much I can say in that regard. Nevertheless, the thing that stood out was the clarity-no mud. Sometimes striving for perfection can wear one down and snuff out inspiration. I don't think to 2 (perfection and inspiration) mix well. The short incomplete tune clearly has a lot of potential. I have a lot of the same incomplete ideas in a holding tank awaiting my return. They may be waiting forever, as I don't enjoy struggling with writers block. In any case, I enjoyed the short demo-warts and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
