Talent Skill Level Description
Bass Guitar Intermediate Must be able to play at a decent level, nothing too taxing, I also think I prefer a bassist who uses a pick on the heavier stuff.
Keyboards Advanced Really good technique and sounds essential, alot of keyboard solo's and keyboard guitar unisons and harmonies ala Dream Theater and Sonata Arctica planned for the final versions of the songs.
Lyricist Intermediate good lyrics required. Not needed if any of the other members can write good lyrics.

I anyway have to learn write happy lyrics so i have to practice to be good at it someday:p so i will do my best :) I´m soon going to sleep so i will start making some good happy lyrics tomorrow:p


padr81 7/14/2010 2:38:52 PM
if u can fit sad lyrics in than u can use them, im rubbish at lyrics thats why i gave up on these songs for ages.  Everything i write comes out really really awful.

Usually i can hear straight away how a song is goin to turn out in my head as soon as I listen to it. These 2 should be grand.  the 2 i struggled with were take this a pain away and heart of stone which turned out to be 2 of my favourites.

lingah 7/14/2010 2:21:03 PM
and just take the songs that you feel you can do something good of and that you think fits the project..dont mind the others

lingah 7/14/2010 2:18:13 PM
i think that i might come up with something...

lingah 7/14/2010 2:16:45 PM

I´m very bad at writing happy lyrics ...if you can help me with lyrics...or maybe you can ask someone if you know anyone whos good at it..but i will try and see what i can do :p

glad you like it,

 im still waiting to get my computer back so i can only do music on nights when i'm babysitting and the kids are asleep, so i'm on a go slow, sorry.  On the plus side, I've got nothing better to do than learn how to build websites etc... so i'll probably get more done with the myspace and web stuff done music for the next weeks or so.

lingah 6/23/2010 8:39:52 AM

there is no rush :)Its starting to get warm here so when I´m bored i go out in the sun haha :p I´m going away for a few days tomorrow night to spend midsummer and then work this weekend..so take your time

glad you liked it...i think that sounds good to keep the piano part..should you play it or should I? i did not understand what you ment

but the chords are same through the hole song gm, D#, F and Dm


padr81 6/23/2010 7:51:59 AM
i love it, plus its my favourite song title possibly ever.  I already know how i'm gonna work with that, its one of those good ones that just clicks straight away.  I'd like to keep the first verse and intro with just you and the piano.  Can you write music, as in the intro notes and i can re-do it plus chords etc...

Sorry im taking so long lately, taking awhile to sort out some personal stuff.

padr81 6/19/2010 5:27:32 PM
no problem at all I'll just stop being lazy and learn it the old fashioned way. we have loads of time.

I hate when computers go weird, does my head in tbh.  theres nothing worse than spending 4 hours on a song, forgetting to save and than the computer dies.

lingah 6/19/2010 3:19:39 PM

 

i dont remember what chords i think it was Bb F gm on the verse and on the chours i think it starts with D

the sound on my computer has stopped working so i cant listen to it ...and not the metal song eather...i dont know whats wrong with it i have to try and fix it tomorrow

padr81 6/18/2010 1:39:46 PM
oh yeah, away from you is perfect, the other older metal song. the one in B with the triplety chorus.  i'll upload it again... its the kinda long heavy one.

Or do you remember the song you uploaded just called "another", do you have the chord list for that as i think that would work very well for it.  You could sing the first line, colin the 2nd and so on during the verse.  if you wanna hear his vocal check out www.karuna.biz.

lingah 6/18/2010 1:14:14 PM
away from you i think we shouldn change anything..but i think its a great idea if we do it at another song..or if you mean on away from here maybe ..we can try to have a male voice in the front and opera in the backroand ?

lingah 6/18/2010 12:28:49 PM
do you mean away from here or the new song you uploaded?

padr81 6/18/2010 8:07:05 AM
will do when i find one. btw would you be interested in having male vox on one of the songs, maybe the really heavy metal one.  The singer off my old band would probably do the male vox part.  You could write the lyrics and decided which ones ye could sing.  Would be interesting

lingah 6/18/2010 5:43:27 AM
mail me a photo of you so i can try to put in on myspace..if you have one when your playing guitarr or something take that :)

padr81 6/17/2010 5:32:46 PM
i like away from you most, its got a nice vibe to it.  Also like take this pain away even though its a ballad.  From the very first time I heard it (just you and the piano), I just really liked the vocal melody, hence why I tried to keep it as much the same as possible.

lingah 6/17/2010 2:52:51 PM
nice:) which song do you like most of the songs we have now ? I think i like last goodbye most of them...and away from you :p

padr81 6/17/2010 11:09:03 AM
yeah, i was thinking its a little bit too different for this.  Not sure if it'll suit.  If you get something for it all well and good, if not its no bother, I might use it on my instrumental project.

Btw i stuck the most uptodate versions of the songs on myspace.

lingah 6/17/2010 10:54:36 AM

the new song is good but i cant come up with a song for it at once...all the songs that become great is the once that comes right away but i will keep on listening to it and see if i can make up something

last goodbye : on 03.46 it is a guitarr thing that shouldnet be there before the "real" guitarr starts

 

take this pain away: from the beginning there is a guitarr sound too..but i kind of like it if you should do like that on the hole intro?

 

time is standing still: there is still some problems with my voice on the first verse i sing you keep on screaming out your name instead of I...so i have to change that,  and then on the chourus its to much when i sing "forget the past"

away from here: sounds great except the opera part is not on the right rythm its comming in a little bit to late

lingah 6/14/2010 2:25:58 PM
awsome  if its ready upload it :) and tell me when you have so i can hear it ..yes i understand i will export it from start of the song :)

padr81 6/14/2010 2:01:52 PM
thats cool. btw when your exporting audio files could you export them from the start of the track if that makes sense, it makes it easier for me to line things up in the mix.

Away from You is pretty much perfect now, will I put it up on the myspace page?  Should we set up some other pages as well, maybe on a music site and facebook or something?

lingah 6/14/2010 12:03:19 PM

I think i will re sing it everything has to be perfect :p and heart of stone the words "burning inside" sounds weird..or just the inside word..so if you can take the new vocals for it..and maybe if the new are better you can swich and take thoose instead :)


padr81 6/14/2010 10:21:06 AM
i'll upload them all this evening lingah, sorry for the delays.  You can re-sing Last Goodbye if you like ti's not trouble for me to mix it in, If you don't want to its no problem as i never noticed it till you said it and I must have heard the song ten thousand times. 

lingah 6/14/2010 7:32:14 AM

hey how are things going ?

I noticed now that on her last goodbye i sing : "wondering what life went wrong" :s I think it should be" where life went wrong" ?

padr81 6/3/2010 12:10:45 PM
heart of stone sounds great with harmonies.  plus with the harmonies in i can use 1 or 2 of the main vocal tracks and it will kill alot of the breath noises.

padr81 6/3/2010 12:06:33 PM
the opera sounds great on away from you.  the website is being awkward for me again i'll upload this evening all going well.

not at home till tomorrow, more darts. but i'll mix it in new opera vox when ready.

you won't have to re-sing heart of stone, i'll just remove a compressor or up the de-esser on the vox, might slightly change the tone but should be fine.

lingah 6/1/2010 7:26:55 AM
i uploaded three opera vocals that you can choose from or maybe use all four of them to make it fullier..but everything has to be perfect so if it doesnt sound good when you mix it in ..i will re-sing it and try something different

i will try to make the opera better on away from here...i havent came up with a name for the song yet..maybe we can call it away from you..cause thats what its about

heart of stone : do i have to re-sing everything? i might have recording to loud and thats why my breathing can be heard or can you fix it ? and about the instrumental part i like it but i think it could be better if you take away the last "round"

take this pain away , yes try to make the piano intro more dynamic its sounds a little bit flat now..try to make it "blend" more into the song..

i havent heard that strings are missing on time is standing still until now...and yes it sounds weird :p haha...but i think its just missing on the intro ?

and about addictiv pain .. ithink youre right it doesnt fit in to the other music so i agree we can skip that song .

this is going to be a killer album :p


padr81 5/31/2010 6:40:05 PM
notes-
away from here
drums are too low by a tad.
vox are too a tiny bit too loud
bass a tad too loud.
lead guitar is a good bit too loud and has a bum note right before the chorus
intro guitar needs fixing.
first 2 words of opera are a tad weak (maybe re-record just opera part)
intro run of solo is too low, solo guitar needs lp and hp filters.

Heart of Stone
Guitars are too "boxy" sounding needs much more eq.
drums ride cymbal is too loud, kick drum is too metal?
lots of breathing noises on vox (maybe i should use less compression?)
1st chorus vox are kinda rushed.
lead guitar is far too loud in break and last chorus.
do you think the instumental part is too long, maybe once through the chord progression?
drums are a tad loud over last chorus.

Take this pain away.
Intro piano needs to be more dynamic?
chorus lead guitar is too loud again (seems to be a recurring problem with me lol).
Everything else seems really good even the programmed drums.
i love the way you sing the first line of the last chorus, Brilliant.
The guitars maybe fade out a bit too quickly at the end and kinda leave the vox just hanging there.

time is standing still.
strings are missing over the Bb chord in intro, which is weird.
clean guitar should be double tracked and panned off like the heavy guitars.
clean guitar sound needs to be changed, its too dull.
synth is a tad too low on chorus and suprise, suprise lead guitar is a touch too loud.
Harmonies would sound great in the chorus.
Volume is all over the place in solos
i think theres a slow fade going on around 3.37 thats making the volume fade slowly, which is weird but probably just a silly mistake i made.
the part at 1.25 sounds fake i think because of the v-vocal fx, i'll just remove them as it seemed to make take this pain away too pitchy as well.

addictive pain,
i've being listening back to this and it just doesn't sound right in its current state, theres a couple of parts i like but its not really suited to the project, should i write a new verse and 2nd part of the chorus? plus i think the whole middle section with crazy dreamtheater drums has to go? Tbh I'm half tempted to scrap the entire songs. its like its doesn't fit with the rest of the songs. What do you guys think.

So we've got 5 songs almost finished.  Whether or not we use AP, we've got the metal song, i've got another im still working on and the one you uploaded called another which take us to 8 or 9 if we stay with AP.  I may use one of the old songs as i uploaded as well as my old singer is coming round to the idea, so that would be 10. I think we should aim for 12 for now, than we can start promoting the hell out of it lol.

padr81 5/31/2010 6:04:59 PM
you can try harmonies if you like than i can pan them off and fill the center with the 3 main voc tracks on each. that way i could use the best takes from each part and fade in and out the good parts.  You can re-sing whatever your not happy with as it only takes me one second to swap one vocal track for another.  Same goes for harmonies, try whatever you like as if it doesn't work we can just delete it and if it does than it makes everything better.

Im gonna listen back through them now more carefully that my ears have had a rest and see what i think needs tweaking.

lingah 5/31/2010 5:57:05 PM

maybe i should put some harmonys in time is standing still and maybe also in take this pain away..or what do you think?

and on away from here on the opera the first words sounds a little weak ?


lingah 5/31/2010 5:55:23 PM

now it starting to sound great except that i heard that i done some misstakes

Last goodbye sounds awsome

heart of stone too except the first chourus is a little bit out of rythm i think the other two choruses were good i have to listen again

Time is standing still: sounds good except that i have to re sing some places ..i heard that i sang "you keep showing up alwayays in your dreams"...insted of "in my dreams"

and on the first "i spend my life" (01.25) it didnt sound good my voice sounded a little bit "false" and then 02.35 were i sang "the past" i sang to fast it sounds a little bit to "ruschy"

and on  03.37 the music getting ,more quiet

and take this pain away sounds great and so is away from here

You are doing a great job :)


padr81 5/31/2010 2:07:54 PM
5 songs updated and uploaded, feel free to find as many faults as you can guys.  Think they don't sound too bad. they are all running through the mastering chain as well now, so you guys have an idea of what the finished article will sound like.  Of coure mp3 is a low quality buzzy file type but you'll have an idea of what the final thing will sound like.  The wav files sound really good.

padr81 5/28/2010 11:41:16 AM
i love the opera, sounds like after forever or epica.  Its great in the background, I'm not a huge fan of it up front all the time ala Nightwish but it works brilliantly there.  If you sang the opera out front for the 2nd part of the chorus where you have it as backing it'd be a nice change and add something different maybe remove the normal rock vox on that part or I could mix them as the backing.  Great stuff, did you use the same lyrics on the 2 metal songs?  I really like them over the away from here one. Sounds great.

You can delete the take this pain away files as long as your happy with the mix. it sounds even better mastered, way louder and blends much more as does Last Goodbye. I've almost finished Heart of Stone as well and its sound very good too run through the mastering chain.

If Neantank doesn't mind we can push on with the songs, using my programmed drums until he gets time and than replace mine with his when he gets them recorded as I've got the process of changing them fairly streamlined now.

Let me know what you think of take this pain away guys, any tweaks you'd like etc...  Have Heart of Stone almost complete too, than it'll just be a matter of swapping out one drum midi file for another.  Seems the simplest way.  Oh and what about maybe setting up a facebook page as well along with myspace for promotion?

padr81 5/26/2010 8:23:30 AM
I wish lol, they'll all sound much, much better when we're done.

they still need editing, basically alligning the guitars and vocals to the grid, than I need to re-do bass tracks especially on heart of stone as the one I've recorded is horrid.  Atm all the really are is guide tracks for the drums.

Im just waiting on the drum tracks before I can push on, so they're as finished as I can for now as if I allign/quantise them now, when NT tracks the drums I may have to start moving things around again re-mix depending on the tracks and possibly re-record the guitars.  its easier to leave all that until I have the final drum files if that makes sense as sometimes the drums dictate the guitar riffs.  With last Goodbye, I completely changed the guitar riff after getting the drums from NT as his drums suited the song more than the guitar part.

With take this pain away, the song has a fairly loose ballad feel so it doesn't need to be tracked as tightly and I won't need to quantisie or allign any of it as having ballads sound too tight can kill all the emotion.

All the vocal tracks will end up as tight and sound almost the same as on Last Goodbye when we get there.

Once I have all the final files I can really start mixing and using fx, eq etc... thats the part that takes most time, I must have spent 30 hours mixing and tweaking Last Goodbye. The others won't take as long though as I have the basic template and know exactly how much reverb suits your voice etc...

lingah 5/25/2010 12:07:35 PM
ok so heart of stone and time is standing still is mastered and finished ? i listen to them closer and someplaces in the song you can hear the different with the three voices on time is standing still on the end it sounds a little bit weird ..you could fade out the voice that is different on thoose places

padr81 5/25/2010 8:11:48 AM
yeah, i need to fix the drum track too as its too dull imho, just those with take this pain away, not many tweaks to the others either.

padr81 5/18/2010 11:34:18 AM
thanks guys, glad you guys like it.  I thought it might be too heavy for what we're going for.

NT, we have all the time in the world so theres no worries about the drums, once we get everything finished and up to date i'll have to fix the mixes and master etc... so more than likely it'll be autumn before we're complete anyway.

I managed to condense the whole song into less than 6 minutes, had to cut out some of my favourite bits lol, but the way it is now we have intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, melody, solo, bridge, chrous. Makes it much more of a song and it flows much better.

bridge starts around 4.35.

lingah 5/18/2010 10:41:24 AM
yes we should do a short one...i will try struggle this out and get something to sing on it :)

NeanTank 5/18/2010 10:29:59 AM
The new song is awesome.  The new drum stuff you got is working well.  lol...  don't even need me anymore.  :P  You're definitely getting good with the production side of things too.  This is the first one I don't have a critical opinion on.  Mix is perfect..  everything is balanced and clear.  Good job. 

The weather was nice Saturday, so I ended up using the time to finish the deck.  I think I need to be rich, and stop working so much.  :( 

Like I said before, if all else fails, I can play catch up during my time off in July.  I will try to work on stuff between now and then though if I can find time.  That is if you still want me to.. :P  I'm not sure I could even add anything to the new song.  It sounds great as is. 

padr81 5/18/2010 9:43:11 AM
atm theres no middle section i've only completed 2 verses and 2 chorus.  its got a long intro the first verse starts at 1.15 after the keyboard theres a heavy guitar riff, that goes once and than the verse comes in over the same riff the next 2 times.  the pre-chorus comes in over the classical chords (1.38) and the chorus is the triplety bit after the keyboard plays the run on its own (1.52). than theres the keyboard riff again, one take of the metal riff and the 2nd verse comes in at (2.49) and the rest is the same til the end of the 2nd chorus, the last 16 bars (3.49) are for a lead break  Atm I'm working on a clean verse for the 3rd verse so it doesn't get too boring for the length a final chorus and a really hard instrumental section to finish.  It'll probably clock in at 9 minutes or so but I can make an edit so we have a short version and a long one, lots that can be cut out if that makes sense

lingah 5/18/2010 9:35:13 AM
i like it alot i will try to do something on it ...but can you write where verse, chourus and middle section start

padr81 5/15/2010 5:35:52 PM
hi lingah could you upload a rough mix of time is standing still as i can't seem to allign the vocals.

the way i was planning it was verse 1 at 0.26,  chorus 1 at 1.02, verse 2 at 1.39, chorus 2 at 2.14, solo at 2.50, middle 8 at 3.26, chorus 3 @3.53 and than just keep singing hte chorus after the modulation so I can fade it out.

yeah there tubular bells lol. thought it would be a bit different to the acoustic lol.

With regards time - I have a version where the synths are replaced by acoustic guitar and strings, plus some piano, much more organic, i'll upload that too and see what you guys think, maybe find a happy medium

NeanTank 5/13/2010 8:56:59 PM
'Heart of Stone' = awesome.  Are those bells?  lol..  love it.   I think if anything the bass could stand out a bit more in the mix.  Maybe throw in a bass solo?  :P

'Time'..  I actually liked the intro.  Maybe use a different synth sample or something, and play with the panning/effects because it does sound a little cheezy.  It might be a bit long too, but I liked the idea.  It reminded me of 'Owl City', one of my favorite bands of late. 

I think for such a long song though, the same synth stuff gets old.  Mix it up a bit more, keep it interesting or fade it farther to the back of the mix during the guitar stuff.  Try some different samples maybe for other parts...  Also, some other suggestions might be to automate the volume a bit lower when the other instruments come in at the beginning, and EQ the high end down a bit.  The high pitch buzzing kinda grates your ears after six minutes.  :P     

Anyway, those are my thoughts.  I like the idea.  I might have some time tonight to work on drums again..  we'll see.  Been trying to paint the deck lately too.  But the rain isn't on my side.   

lingah 5/13/2010 4:38:16 PM

lingah 5/13/2010 4:29:52 PM

about time is standing still..i dont like the start it almost sound like a video game ..ninitendo :p but i like the guitarr alot that starts after one minute...so dont change the guitarr cause that sounds great..and the solo part is great..:) maybe its a little bit to long its alomost 6 minutes ..or what do you think?

and for heart of stone sounds great...so i think the music backroand should be like that..but i do have to change my voice cause it sounds crappy and false on some places...and the chourus i need to change to make another suitible song...but it sounds great except my voice that i have to re sing

'Last Goodbye' - The drums definitely fit the mix better now.  I'll be happy with it.  :) 

And no worries with add. pain.  I uploaded a sample so that you guys could be picky.  Without the vox in there, it's much easier to re-track now.  I brought the drums forward in the mix I uploaded so you could hear what I was doing better.  It might not be so distracting if it was farther back in the mix.  I don't mind changing it though.  I don't have to work Saturday, so I'll try to edit and finish it then. 

And I'll have to look into those vst's you mentioned.  Thanks for the info. 

lingah 5/12/2010 12:00:13 PM
picky is good ..so keep on beeing picky :) i agree with add pain ...and last goodbye now sounds awsome :) I´m sick right , got very soar throat now so i wont be able to sing anything  I´m starting to get better so in a few days i can probably start sing again

padr81 5/12/2010 10:29:36 AM
can't upload files at the minute sorry guys, something is wrong with the website.

Lingah - I've written a new chorus for Heart of Stone, much slower paced and less cheesy than the old one, makes the song more ballady, but the tempos are the same.  Could you re-track the vocals using the old version.  The problem i have is they are all in one file and i can't mix them.  If you could re-track one main vocal and 2 backing/harmony tracks like you did with last goodbye i'd be able to edit them and chop and change fx, panning etc...

NT - I like what your going for with addictive pain, the only thing is the fast piece over the pre-chorus "i will fight"... piece,
it seems to distract the listener from the vocals if that makes sense, is there any chance you could play something that follows the guitars and bass (kinda simular to what i programmed but better.) as thats the only real part of the song thats melodic and where the vocals really dominate.

Sorry about being so picky.

no bother nt, i'll try a few different drum sounds here and we'll go with what your prefer, i'll send you the edited midi and you can go off that as well, maybe blending 2 would work and be fuller.

For my guitar - Im using an Ibanez Jem into a roland vg99 pedal to get di's, than i'm using vsts in the fx section of sonar to get the actual sound.  You can google them to get them and the best thing is they are free.

My chain is usually, tss (tubescreamer vst) - Nick Crow 8505 (which is a free peavey 5150 vst) or Revolutionz amp pluging (mesa boogie emulation i think) - into Kefir1.2 (which loads impulses - and than I use a combination either catharsis awesometime impulses or guitarhacks impulses.

Just google and download the above.  Takes a bit of space but they are great quality and free.  On Last Goodbye its tss-8505-kefir with catharsis impulse, double tracked and panned hard left and right.

NeanTank 5/11/2010 11:43:34 PM

'Last Goodbye'.. The drums sound kinda shallow compared to the rest of the mix.  :(  The rest of the mix is sounding awesome though.  Would you mind sending me the midi file so I can run it through my drum module and see if I can get anything that better matches the mix?  If you guys like it, that's fine..  I just think they could sound better.

'Take This Pain Away' sounds awesome.  Good job with the vocals.  Love it.

I'm gonna work on 'Add. Pain' a bit tonight..   I might have Saturday off after all..  Guess we'll see. 

Oh..  and just curious..  How are you recording your electric?  The quality is awesome.  I've had trouble getting good tone when I record my electric.  Of course, my equipment isn't the best either.

i use to go in here at least once a day to check it out since i dont get mail eather from here:s

and about the mono thing..I´m not sure what you mean with that and how i should do it ? so you have to explain?

and upload the songs whenever you want ...you can upload them and i´m not gonna do anything before the other songs are finish but i can still listen and start working with lyrics to them ..so it would be good if you uploaded them anyway:)


NeanTank 5/8/2010 9:03:53 PM
That's one of the biggest issues I've had with my E-kit, since its older the pads don't trigger as well anymore.  If I don't turn the sensitivity up a little bit, I get missing notes instead of double notes.  The audio wasn't double triggering, but I did notice the midi double triggering.  I can turn it down a bit, see if that helps.  I've been thinking about getting some triggers for my acoustic kit, and running them through my module.  They aren't too expensive, but I don't know if they'll work any better.

Lol @ the 500 gig thing.  I only have 40 gig on my cpu.  I just bought a 500 gig external hard drive to free up some of my space. 

I might also be working 12 hour days and Saturdays till the end of the month too I just found out.  :(  And a new band I just joined wants to record stuff too.  So I'm kinda swamped as well.  I'll try to get drums done though.  Even if its sub-par tracking.  I can get it done enough to edit for you.  I know its a pain having to write out drums in midi.  I do have two weeks off at the beginning of July though, so just in case I don't get to it before then.  I will have time eventually. 

I noticed the email thing too..  haven't been getting updates either.

padr81 5/8/2010 1:03:01 PM
for some reason i've stopped getting mails off this site and i thought you guys had given up lol.  I'll try and get it uploaded tonight if I can Neantank.  I'm off with the county playing darts tomorrow so if i don't it'll be tuesday at best.

Lingah i'll have tracks for you Tuesday as well, sorry about the delay, glad you enjoyed the holiday.

gonna try and get moving again with these, I'll get a bit done this week but I'm also finishing up scoring a horror movie which is taking alot of my music time atm, the producer/director is a good friend of mine and sends alot of work my way so I kinda have to bow to his demands and he is really, really picky. but I'll be back at full pace by monday week at the latest.  I'll have something for you both before than.

Heres what we have so far.
1 - Last Goodbye - practically finished, a little bit more drum editing and still tweaking the guitar sound.
2 - Addictive Pain - song, lyrics, structure and vox are finished, when NT finishes the drums,  I'll retrack the guitars and bass, will probably take a week as this being so heavy it needs quad tracking.  Than lots of editing, fx and general production.
3 - Take this pain away - as above, need to retrack everything after drums plus i need to write some small complimentray orchestral parts and finish the intro.
4 - Heart of Stone - Finished reworking the chrous so this will be uploaded for both of you guys  on Tuesday at hte latest.
5 - Time is Standing Still - I have a verse, chorus and middle section complete, having trouble trying to come up with a guitar part thats not just powerchords and is a little more interesting, plus I'm not sure whether to run with or without keys.

Along with that I've got a couple more demo's of my own for you guys to work with and the last file Ligah uploaded.  Ive got ideas for these (i'll upload them for you Lingah to work on while we catch up) but don't wanna push too far ahead, my harddrive is full with about 500gb of audio files and i'm running outta space lol, so I think we should target getting the above done and dusted and than move on.  Another pro for doing this is when we have 5 songs complete bar mastering, i can simply delete everything off here and free up alot of space for the next 5.

One or two other points guys,
Lingah if you could record your vox in mono and export in mono it would be a big help, it saves space and allows me to do more processing on the track without eating my cpu.  Sorry about the lack of stuff for you to record at the moment, I'm just absolutely swamped.

NT - One thing I noticed was i was getting alot of double notes off your midi drums. I was talking to a pro-engineer and he reckons that the sensitivity on your kit may be too high so some of the notes are coming out twice.  Your track sounds great though, now its process and edited, i'll upload a sample of that too when I'm uploading this evening.

Sorry about the essay guys, getting carried away typing.

NeanTank 5/7/2010 10:32:20 PM
A vacation sounds really good right now.  :(  Been workin' far too much lately.  Sorry Costa Rica was boring.  I've been to Honduras many years ago..  before all the political turmoil there.  I enjoyed it.  I didn't like Miami so much though. 

lingah 5/7/2010 4:21:13 AM
thanks..costa rica was not good expensive and boring:p so i was just there for five days i thought that i couldnt stay there i have to go somewhere...and then i took a flight to miami...and miami was nice we even had time to go on a cruise to bahamas for one day..so alot happend on two weeks :p but it feels so good to be home again

NeanTank 5/7/2010 12:21:37 AM

I haven't messed with it since that day I jammed with it last time I posted.  I have a little time today, but the house is trashed and I have to pick it up a bit.  Sorry I'm holding you guys back.  I won't be offended if you want to find another drummer to help you out.

i had that problem with take this pain away when i was uploading that, its just kept losing connection or something, theres no panic anyway, we'll let nean tank do addictive pain and take this pain away and try and get those finished before we push on with the others.

yeah thats no problem at all, feel free to upload it, tbh i don't like how i did the chorus and am looking to change it anway while keeping your vocal melody cause my one sounds too cheesy i think.

lingah 4/7/2010 6:17:59 AM
i have a suggestion on how we can do heart of stone i asked my band to play that song and i like how it became...if you like it we can do it like that...but its live recording from a very bad recording mashine so its sounds very bad but jsut so you see how it goes and if we can do something like that ?

padr81 4/6/2010 6:28:16 PM
i set up an email adress and myspace, i'll pm you guys the password so ye can login, enter your names and stuff.  Only uploaded the 1 finished song. http://www.myspace.com/colddistancemusic

padr81 4/6/2010 7:20:34 AM
cold distance it is than, hard to find a name thats not already taken on myspace, no matter what i typed in there was one already and I typed in every name you guys suggested.

lingah 4/6/2010 2:36:34 AM
within distance music sounds like a production company...take cold distance instead then

NeanTank 4/5/2010 5:43:10 PM
I vote 'cold distance', but I don't really care either way.  I was more busy than I thought I'd be this past weekend so I didn't get a chance to record anything.  I just finished jamming to the two songs a bit though to get a feel for them.  Which would you guys prefer I record first?

padr81 4/5/2010 11:13:03 AM
yup, i can try something simular though, like within distance music if you like?

lingah 4/5/2010 11:05:07 AM
i like within distance best but cold distance is good too so it doesnt matter for me was within distance occupied?

padr81 4/5/2010 9:29:46 AM
I like Cold Distance actually, the best so far, if neantank is ok with it i'll go with that.  I'll set up and email address too for it and send you guys the password and address as it'll save us having to use a personal one for myspace etc....

lingah 4/4/2010 1:20:56 PM
cold water or frozen tears  maybe  ?...i should probably stop write because io dont know if you fixed with the other name yet :p..haha

lingah 4/4/2010 1:14:29 PM

if within distance is occupied we can try something with ice, frozen .and more words...maybe within frozen sky? or something like that ? i dont know about the grammar but try something in that style?..maybe: iced covered paradise or maybe cold distance?

i have some other suggestions if it doesnt work:

the venom inside

frozen inside

eyes of stone /iced stone

iced covered paradise

cold distance ?

i like cold distance and frozen inside the most i just wrote down everything that poped up into my head :p


padr81 4/4/2010 6:31:57 AM
within distance sounds nice i'll try that.

lingah 4/3/2010 5:07:46 PM
"in the distance" or "within distance"? i like within distance more its nicer words

padr81 4/3/2010 3:29:03 PM

padr81 4/3/2010 11:43:06 AM

yeah i think i'll have to use automation on the vox as if i compress it more to fix the levels it loses alot of dynamics.  Its time consuming so it may take awhile but I'll get on it asap.  Have to tweak volumes a word at a time takes awhile but I'll get it done.

I can set up the myspace  if your stuck and send you guys the username, password and details, may take awhile though as I haven't alot of free time.


lingah 4/3/2010 7:47:36 AM
can someone start doing the myspace site I´m very bad at making homepages and everything about it :p and our desition was to have "distance"as name? is everybody ok with that ?

lingah 4/2/2010 11:35:16 AM
it sounds awsome except my voice sounds like a little bit far away..i think you could turn one of the voices up so thats the one in centrum ..and turn the volume up a little bit ..oin the verses the volume was better than the bridge and chourus

NeanTank 3/29/2010 6:37:46 PM
Lord of the Rings characters..  lol..  that'd be awesome. 

We could call ourselves 'Distance' since we're countries away from each other.  :P  *shrugs*  It's a 'dis' word. 

I'm really itching to start messing with this stuff again.  Sucks when life pulls you away from the things you love to do.  Hope you guys don't mind my absence.  I'm gonna make time to work on stuff this weekend.   

lingah 3/29/2010 3:22:43 PM
what is your childrens name padr? what do you think about my suggestions neantank or do you have another suggestion? i try to make another intro tomorrow :)

padr81 3/29/2010 1:30:02 PM
with take this pain away, i'm thinking of cutting that intro altogether or you could play something if you like, midi tends to lack the emotion of a real performance on a ballady type song like this imo.

with regards a name you and nean tank can pick, i'm useless at naming things, i'd of called both my kids after lord of the rings characters if it was up to me.

don't worry about the bridge of time is standing still i'll just work it out. just it speeds things up when i know them without having to learn.

lingah 3/29/2010 1:16:22 PM
i love take this pain away..its awsome..the onlyy thing i dont like is the intro with the piano it doesnt fit in...so keep everythiong else..awsome :D about band name...maybe something with dis from the start ..?

padr81 3/6/2010 7:22:30 AM
yup no bother. i'll try that and see how it works out. maybe keep the first verse acoustic and than rock it up from the first chorus to see how it goes.

the piano is for take this pain away as it sounds much better with real playing, i'll put some strings and guitar in the background to help with timing and such. I hate metronomes too.

lingah 3/5/2010 1:58:08 PM

padr81 3/5/2010 6:51:00 AM
hi lingah, do you want to keep the piano in heart of stone i think it sounds great, if i sent you a backing with a click track would you be able to play it to the beat to steady up the timing a bit.

I could sequence it myself hear but it sounds much better and more dynamic when its played by someone whose good on the instrument.

hi guys, looks like we'll only be doing addictive pain as well for now. the old singer wants to use the 2 other tracks in her new band and I got well paid for them.  I'm busy writing more though so I should have another for when we finish AP.

Lingah, you must be bored senseless, I'm having a bit of trouble with AP as I lost all my original seperate tracks and i'm writing essentially the same song again from scratch.  Shouldn't be too long though.

It seems I can't upload midi files on here.  If you give me your email in a private message I can send you the midi file as an attachment.  Or I can set up a dropio page or something.  Also, when I went to export the midi file, it asked if I wanted to export as 'type 0' or 'type 1'.  Do you know what the difference is?  Does it matter which I export it as? 

The second take isn't perfect.  Let me know if you need anything changed.  I'm kind of frustrated with my electric kit because I feel like I can't do this song justice with it.  There's things that I just can't do on the E-kit that I can on an acoustic kit.  (fast tom fills for one, and soft snare rolls without the 'machine gun' effect like I tried to do on the first verse of the new mix for another)  Hopefully the midi will help in that area.  Maybe eventually I'll be able to afford to mic my acoustic kit.  Gotta get by with what I've got for now though. 

The new mix you loaded is sounding pretty awesome.  Only suggestion I have for it might be centering the ensemble string, and panning the low and hi end of the keys slightly left and right.  It just sounds strange to me having the strings panned hard right like that.  Other than that its sounding really good.

One other trick that might sound good is duplicating the string track, and panning them hard left and right.  Then adding a slightly different room/reverb effect to them.  Might sound interesting.  ...or centering just the one track, and adding a delay pan/chorus effect.  That might sound cool too.  I'm full of ideas.  lol..   and yeah, the mid/low's are still slightly muddy.

'lots' is actually bad grammar.  'many' is correct. 

I'm finishing the song today, or trying to at least.  If I don't get it done, I'll at least load what I have so you have something to mess with, padr.

No problem or no panic with it mate.  The song is sounding very well now and will be awesome when you done.  I'll upload the latest mix asap. Much better guitar tone imho and much more powerful mix.  If you wanna upload the audio as well that'd be cool as I could blend the 2 kits.

Lingah - I'll have mix1.0 of addictive pain up monday morning for you.

NeanTank 2/19/2010 10:21:23 PM
Well, I figured out how to record in midi.  I also figured out how to record audio and midi simultaneously.  Would you have any use for the audio file too, or do you only want the midi?  I'm still kind of lost with editing the midi files.  Think I'll just leave that to you since you have more experience with it.  I started recording some tonight.  I was getting frustrated though because my tom pads are old and don't trigger as well anymore.  Its been a long stressful day too.  I'll try to finish it tomorrow. 

padr81 2/19/2010 5:10:37 AM
no bother mate, if you can record as a midi track i can seperate them myself. it'll save you the hassle of uploading them all seperately.  It can be awkward to set it up though.

NeanTank 2/18/2010 8:16:59 PM
I'd forgotten how confusing midi can be...  I'm getting it figured out though.     

NeanTank 2/15/2010 9:18:48 PM
Hey, I got my midi cable in the mail today.  I'll start messing with it tomorrow night.

NeanTank 2/9/2010 9:49:02 PM
Yeah, you're right.  Recording guitar after the drums is a better idea.  The midi cable is on its way.  Should be here in a couple days. 

padr81 2/9/2010 6:59:41 AM
no bother mate, the clipping is probably the chopping i used on the guitars, i'll fade them on the final version as i'm retracking them again to get them tighter whent the drums are done.  I think its easier to record guitar on top of drums than vice versa.

NeanTank 2/8/2010 9:09:03 PM
Hmm..  I still hear a lot of clipping in there.  Maybe it wasn't all from the drums.  I usually fade the clips that are causing it or automate the volume when I get clipping like that from re-arranging..  Also, could I get a version without the vocals too.  It helps me stay tighter with the instruments. 

NeanTank 2/8/2010 9:01:14 PM
I went to the music store tonight and they didn't have what I needed.  :(  They did however have and awesome acoustic drum kit set up that I jammed on for awhile.  That was fun.  Anyway, I'll probably have to order a cable/interface online.  May take some time to get here.  I might just try it without the midi cable.  Or just work on that other project until it arrives.  We'll see.

Files:[[Media drumless version of mix 4.0.~1662~True]]

NeanTank 2/7/2010 5:12:40 PM
The version just has the two acoustic guitar tracks and the bass track.  I hadn't intended to add drums to it.  Maybe some hand percussion stuff.  I don't know. We'll see.  You may have to alter the lyrics, or change the way you sing the song to fit; or just write all new lyrics for it.  Up to you.   

I'm working on another project too that needs female vocals if you'd like to contribute to that as well.  I'll send you an invite.

padri: dart tournment how fun..i love to play dart..how is it going for you ? are you winning ?

nean tank: yes i might be little bored haha...i got nothing much to do :p

an acoustic verision sounds nice ...you mean that you should play acostic guitarr instead and then put drums and everything else on it ?:)


padr81 2/7/2010 4:57:53 AM
Sorry guys, i'm away at a big darts tournament since friday. i'll be back to business as usual monday morning and I'll get everything updated and uploaded by tomorrow evening.

NeanTank 2/6/2010 1:09:10 PM
Getting bored?  :)  I'm planning to head into town tonight or tomorrow afternoon to pick up a midi cable.  I decided it'd be easier to hold off recording till then for both of us.  I'm still waiting for the drum free version of the 4th mix anyway.  Can't do much until then.  Also, I don't know if you would want it or not, but I EQ'd and cleaned up that first mix I did from the 'addicted' project a bit.  My wife wanted to put a clip of it on her website because she liked the finger picking on the verses.  It's the slow version that you couldn't sing to originally.  I can post it in a new project if you want it.  Maybe you could sing a remixed acoustic version or something.  Let me know.   

lingah 2/6/2010 4:15:09 AM
hey guys..how are things going? its a little bit quiet here:p

NeanTank 2/1/2010 9:30:31 PM
I like the arrangement much better on the 4th mix.  The guitar sounds like it fits in the mix better too.  Not as muddy.  The timing is very choppy, and there's a lot of clipping, probably a result of slicing and re-arranging the drums.  If you upload a 4th mix without the drums, I'll re-record to make it smoother and keep it the same as you have it arranged.  We can wait until I get a midi cable too if you'd like. 

NeanTank 2/1/2010 9:04:23 PM
I'll look into getting a midi cable.  I know it would make editing stuff a whole lot easier for you.  It's been a long time since I've worked with any midi stuff.  I'll have to figure it out again.  I live in a small town with no music stores.  So I'll have to order something online or go to the nearest town this weekend.  I do also have like 500 samples on my drum module.  I can upload some different samples for you in the mean time.  I have some more realistic sounding kits on there.   

lingah 2/1/2010 3:21:53 PM

yes do that:)...what do you think of the lyrics and song melody? do you want me to change anything ? and upload the other songs to but without vocals :)

Files:[[Media Last Goodbye Mix 4.~1644~True]]

padr81 2/1/2010 10:49:48 AM
Lingah - I can rearrange the song easily,  so you just want the same parts but with the timing you suggested?  I like the idea so far, I can change the part at 1.16 to something simular and than bring the riff your singing over at 59-1.16 back, so you get a break before the 2nd verse.  Or I could just double the length of the riff from 0.59 to 1.32 or there abouts and do the exact same thing with 2nd verse and chorus before the break with the mad drumming.  Or do you want me to write any new parts, like a new 2nd chorus before the riff

Neantank - Is there anyway you could get me a midi or something of those drums so i could mix the electric sound off your kit with real samples than blend them both to get a real strong feel to the drums.

nean tank- im just going to change the structure slightly so wanna copy and paste some bits is all, nothing major. i'll work with it as is.

lingah - i'll fix the timing on vox in final mix. i like the way it comes across with the lyrics as are. its adds a european flavour too it and reminds me of some of my favourite bands.  Gives it a certain vibe ala early Sonata Arctica or something.

lingah 1/29/2010 4:41:40 AM
weird i dont get information when this project is updated ...i thought this project been quit for a while..but i was wrong :p
nice work...but i think the vocie comes in a little bit to late...i know my english can be a little bit europe english :p but you can change the lyrics so it would be better ..and i got to improve my english too :D haha so tell me if i should change anything

NeanTank 1/28/2010 8:15:38 PM
I don't know what software you use, but my software has an audio quantizer that allows you to match the hit points to the tempo.  It only lets me do it up to ten measures though because its a trial version.  Maybe yours can do the whole track?  I would be willing to re-do whatever you'd like changed time permitting too.  I'm still planning on fixing the end.  Let me know measure to measure or time to time what you'd like tightened up.  I might just redo the song without the vocals.  I know they were throwing me off in some places because they were louder in the mix, and not necessarily on tempo as vocals tend to be.

NeanTank 1/28/2010 7:54:19 PM
Unfortunately, I'm using the master outs on my electric kit to record with.  I don't have a midi cable yet to multi-track.

padr81 1/28/2010 7:06:57 PM
hi mate, just wondering could you upload the drum tracks seperate, like one for the kick, one for snare etc.. as i want to edit them a bit if its ok as im messing with the structure of the song and trying to tighten everything up.

padr81 1/25/2010 8:06:30 AM
i retracked all the rhythm guitars. haven't touched any eq yet but i'll get there. good luck with the new band btw.

padr81 1/25/2010 7:59:38 AM
no problem mate, good thing about the internet is we have all the time in the world, no deadlines etc...

NeanTank 1/24/2010 5:45:40 PM
Sorry it took so long.  The end is still a bit rough.  Wish I had a double pedal to work with there.  I'll over-dub a new take when I get a chance.  I'm auditioning for a new band and have a lot of material to learn.  That's why I've been so busy.  Probably for the best that you mix it anyway.  You had that in your 'open positions' tab, that's why I offered.  It would be tedious to explain the effects and what I'm hearing.  I'm sure you'll do a fine job in any case.  (It already sounds pretty awesome as is)  The only thing that stands out in the mix to me is that the guitar seems kind of muddy through much of the song.  Could be EQ'd better maybe.  Sounds like its drop tuned?  Seems to conflict with the bass frequencies in many places.  Awesome solo at the end btw.

Hey, just letting you know I've been working on the drums, and its coming along well.  I have some ideas for effects and stuff to give the song that 'extra something'.  I'm pretty good at EQ'ing and mixing.  If you'd like me to work with that stuff too, I'll need the individual tracks.  I'm really liking this song.
