Welcome all to our second Rockband collab. Rhythm Guitar - Strange Gravity Lead Guitar - On Hold Bass - Pan65 Keyboards - Skynexia Drums - MSG Special Guest - Caustic Replay I'll post the template soon. Do you guys want to talk about a style or anything before we start? Or just go at it however it goes?
MFG X2 (Rockband)
Metal?
Metall is fine for me:)
If you do one of these as Symphonic Metal I'll add the symphony.

I'm gonna have to put a mean kit together then. I'll take me a bit.
Here is an idea that may spur some ideas. Maybe a symphonic Halloween metal track:)
I was thinking of a rock overture. I don't care to do anything Halloween related. Not holiday music.
A rock overture would be cool.
metal!
Caustic Song file (optional):
Can you record another set of patterns, with a bit different distortion or guitar, so we can pan em. Sounds fuller.
Yeahhh! SG. Mettataalalal! XD
Sorry guys, will be busy for the next 2 weeks, I leave my turn for this one, hope there will be a third to join!
Hmm, we don't need to add lead until the track is almost finished. By then Skarabee may be available again so I suggest we leave the spot open for now. What do you guys think?
No problem. Tonight or tomorrow night.
Sounds good
OK for me, if the slot is still empty.
ok this is a redo. I sped it up and altered the patterns. and as requested 2x recording with different distortions.
Caustic Song file (optional):
Thanks, sorry if I get pushy.
This isn't in my contract..... I quit!
Who's next, drums or bass?
Sorry couldn't wait for the answer, here's what I come up with. I'm testing a theory of mine here which involve natural sounding compressed bass. What I do is basically splitting the sound into high and low's and play it very dynamic. Then I compress the heck out of the lows while letting the highs run free. This lets the more of the string sound to come trough when the bass is played loud and hide it on quiet notes. I think it sounds just as sloppy as it should :).
Caustic Song file (optional):
Pan great idea. I expanded on it. Check out my bass config
Caustic Song file (optional):
Ha ha, that's dirty alright. Maybe too dirty though, lets not forget that we need some space for drums and keyboards ;). Let's wait and see what the others bring in to the mix and experiment with the sound near the finishing of the track. I like your idea though :).
I hope to have a chance tonight and put a kit together.
If CR is going to add some strings maybe they should discuss with sky how they want to arrange it. Just a thought.
"too dirty" is not in my lexicon
:D
Just listened, guys made this easy. I'll use the latest file.
Let me know when I can do that. Kinda been monitoring for somebody to kick it over to me.

Also, my idea for adding a symphonic sound is to use a modular sending notes to 3-4 PCM synths. The PCM synths would have the symphonic elements. The modular simply will control them all at once when desired.

Here's a format file CR... Take the open slots. Should be 4.
Caustic Song file (optional):
I'll take it after CR.
File obtained.

I'm working on it, and will be doing so through tomorrow.
I am learning rather quickly that there are not a lot of good symphonic instrument sounds readily available. I might have to try and create some new presets using my Kurzweil synth.
I've attached what I'm messing with so far. See if you all like the direction the sound is heading, or if "I should take it all back to formula".
DON'T USE THE ATTACHED CAUSTIC FILE, just listen to it and give me some feedback.

I like where your heading with it.
Alright, I'll continue evolving it then.

Sent you an email with some strings and squid font.
I continued.
Please use the file attached to proceed.

Wow, this is so great. Really like what you did here CR...
Thank you Pan

I second that. All in favor?
Gonna add some quick drums...
MFG, if you hold tight a few hours I have a PKPlatinum rock kit to send over to you to try if you want.... (Single machine version....)
I am just about finished with your first X-perimemt, and will habe a render ready to share soon
Let me know when I'm up.
Drums
Caustic Song file (optional):
Sorry, missed those comments.
Feel free to send em over. I was planning to do a hybrid of your trashed kit. I just did a few simple drum patterns for the time being. Get this going.
Itsok..... Whatever you want...... I had to take my girlies a few places right now, but I will have your first collab posted tonight..... Just a few more touches.... It is guaranteed big grins when you hear it
Before I create anymore samples, yes or no on this?
Caustic Song file (optional):
Yes thats nice, maybe some weird noisy samples would fit nicely to.
Cool, I've got open the string/voice sample up a little more and use modulars to create more samples as this track progresses plus create chord samples. May even program sounds on my keyboard, layer them, run them through caustic effects and modulars. This will take time to do. I'll await my turn again to give me time to create them and hear what I need to do plus leave room for lead guitar.
Yall been bizzy
