Anybody want to do some sy board music collaborations?
 

You know, like someone makes a beat, then someone else adds bass then someone els adds gtr/vox etc. via sending mp3 or wav files. That would be fun. I guess it would be best if participants have some kind of decent recording software that makes it easy to transfer digital.

Seriously, we should do this people...

if i remember correctly there was a similar thread a while ago...but it sunk like a stone :( :( :( .as soon as i get a broadband connection i'll be happy to contribute.just wait..........wait and be afraid!

ill make a beat

My band does just this. We have 2 guitarists, one lives in Croatia and Me i live in Australia, the our bass player lives in a city 600km from me.

We send our stuff to each other and mix it all.

Have a listen, id be up for making a tune with someone. The quality isnt the greatest but its music is it not?

Dan

I'll get all up ins.

Yeah, I tried to do this before. But if someone posts a beat and gets the ball rolling I'll do some stuff.

I'll make a beat too - we could have a few of these going.

I tried on the old board and all i got was a 4 seconds bassline.

I'm all for it! I can do anything but vocals, my singing sounds like some emo child.

welcome back porkmarras!

Hello!

How was your vacation? where were you at? There's a thread dedicated to your absence

Aw bless!I didn't go anywhere just yet but i've been out almost everyday since last Friday.How have you been?

back with a new avatar,huh?

We're doing this shit, so ya better commit if you have decent recording gear.

ill do some thrash screaming.

i'll help, but i work with a 4-track./// but i can provide some bass/gtr/vox/toy keyboard/or just white noise atmoshpere

well how we do this. where would i post my tune and what format do i save it as?

I'm up for adding whatever I can. When (and if) something crops up, and I feel I have something to add, I will.

Suggestions for doing this:

When one track is posted, the first person to call it adds to it.
Once you have added to it, post both pieces on one track, and a separate track with your addition only.
The next person calls it.

How about the 2nd person mix's their addition to the left and the one before to the right? That way the 3rd person can get all 3 tracks mixed together instead of having to mix 1 track into a premixed one.

I'd love to tear up on some drums, but I don't have any way to record it right now.

if i get some recording gear, i'll gladly contribute.

Well, my idea was that you posted one with all three mixed in, AND a track of whatever you contributed. This is good for two reasons. The person who contributes next, has the track with everything mixed, and, if for whatever reason, they have the each track individually, allowing a little more freedom for the whole thing.

but how do we post a track? and what sort of file must it be. i have lots of guitar tunes i can add right now to start the ball rolling.

MP3 should work. Use a hosting site such as yousendit or badongo...

OK, here is a beat.

I just screwed around with one of my beats, changed the drumset it uses, changed the BPM, etc. The way I have it set up, it works with one of my songs really well.

let's put a phat beat on this.

I call bass on this one.

if you want me to sing for real you have to pay me.

you are an official courtney look alike after all.

remember to show your union card to get 10% off any purchase at Walgreens.

that makes me feel special. thanks.

It's official: there can't be a thread ever without some cantankerous related bickering.

and it took you this long to figure that out?
please excuse me, i seem to be experiencing a burning sensation and flaking skin on my right eyelid, which is much more interesting than this conversation.

Naw, I just didn't think it would spill over in here. This iz bizzness we gettin' down to in here - pm's work good for bickering!

yeah but it's more fun to do it in front of everyone.

Ok, maybe someone could start a new thread about that stuff.

Anyway...

I'm listening to the beat and trying to figure out what to do - keeping the bass simple (like a real repetitive groove) or more songy with a few changes and stuff. I'll work on it tomorrow at the practice space.

or maybe you could act like an adult and drop the subject completely.

Kegmama,
I should ship you my recorder so you can contribute some screams! Wait, that ain't a very good idea - would take too long.
There's gotta be some free multi track recording software somewhere.

It depends...I don't know much about computer recording programs. Maybe someone has some input for a good one to use.
