Ok, so I was having a fuck of a time sequencing this drum beat for a cover I want to do on my album, this song in 3/4 but in a couple places sort of pauses by going to 4/4, and Sonar and Fruity Loops weren't playing nicely for some reason. Friday at work it hit me that since the part was pretty sparse anyway, I could probably play it myself easier than I could sequence it. So, I shot an email to my roommate,got the go-ahead, and when I got home carried his kit over into my room.
You haven't lived until you've been in a bedroom just big enough to hold a bed, a dresser, a computer, and a drumkit, that actually has a drumkit. \m/ Because on the internet it never happened unless you have pictures, I've attached two. ![]() ![]() The tune's an old traditional Celtic song called "Fhear A Bhata (the boatman)" if anyone knows/cares. One of my mom's favorite songs, and another one of those perfect melodies that you just can't change a note. I'd post it up, but I'm not too happy with the solo on it right now - it's the sort of thing where it's more effective if you don't overplay, and, well, I overplay. ![]() Also, unrelated tangent, Chris can confirm that I'm way better at recording acoustic guitars than I am at recording, like, anything else. ![]()

Hahaha it looks like you don't even have enough room to properly space out the OH's.

I wish. :/ it's my roommate's kit - his room'a a bit bigger than mine, so he's got space for a kit. I just moved it over to my room for the evening to record a track.

As it was, it was a fuckin tight squeeze to get in and out of the room. They're farther apart than they look, but it's not ideal. |

Damn, I remember I had to sell my electric kit becayse it didn't fit in my room, but I got another 7 from what I made off of it, so that turned out nice.

...and I just took your suggestion and re-recorded the lead with my Strat. The tone still isn't perfect, but when I do record this I think the Fender's going to get the nod (unless Leon sells me his new Strat VII
)Anyway, in case anyone's curious:
Very much a work in progress (I'm still overplaying here and there and I'm not really "finding" the chords consistantly, melodically speaking), but whatever, we're all friends here. ![]() My fingers aren't really used to 11's anymore, and are now absolutely brutalized. ![]() |
