You may be right. I'll have a listen. Sonar LE isn't great for this; I should have used Cubase.

Sounding good so far Gilles.
Timing sounds a bit out in my bit. Not much, but enough to make the arpeggios sound sloppy. Needs to be dragged a smidge earlier if possible.


Oh sure, it's the recording.

OK, guys. I've redone the whole thing. This time, I used a free drum loop from the web - complete with a simple fill - to which I added a cymbal, a simple bass line and Hammond organ chords from my sampler. I moved The Tiggs' performance to the beginning as it is quiter than the rest. I'm rubbish at mixing and I hope I didn't overcompress the overall mix. Anyway, you'll find it here.

Sounds really good. Just listened to it twice while washing up (I am so rock n' roll!).

Great playing all round, and some really nice guitar tones.

Great job Gilles pulling it all together.

0:02 The Tiggs
0:47 Old Swanner
1:32 me
2:17 Bob Gnarly
3:03 Skyline
3:48 Not the DJ
4:34 Stickyfiddle

Sounds really good Giles. It biulds nicely to the quick stuff and ends well with Sticky's double stops.

Thanks, I see what you mean. As I said before, your performance was drowned in the original backing track so I moved it to the beginning with electric piano chords instead of a swirly organ.
Apart from that, I basically added the various contributions in the order I received them so the build-up is purely coincidental!
I burned the file to an audio CD the other day and although the mix is a little too bassy for my taste, the track is quite pleasant to listen to nevertheless.
I have a soft spot for Skyline and Stickyfiddle's performances, I must admit.
