Now, It's not mozart, or anything, but:

The site is pretty good, IMO, and you can even make a group that keeps track of tracks.

I recommend reducing the amplitude on the Mixdown track before making the next mixdown.
Also included my rhythm, minus the drums, for any potential use, corrective or otherwise.

I was able to listen to IS's version. Dude, what sort of effects were you using on that?

My electric is out of commission at the moment, so it was my acoustic. Then I ran that through a distortion filter in Cool Edit Pro for
a crunchy sound.

By the by, My track is in E minor, if anyone finds that useful.

I will. I usually play guitar by ear, but since I opted for mandolin, I'll have to know that.
Sounds like a little bit of delay too.

Sorry about that! I just changed the language to english, please tell me if it worked!

mama like.

i kinda agree with Plight, though...my portion is delayed...i musta' used my reverb instead of chorus.

Could be the inherent latency in whatever effects you were using.

I like the effect. I think that the only problem with it though is that the guitar comes out a little quiet. When I get to the mandolin later this week, I'll compensate for that.

You want the guitar louder?  It's easy enough to do, but that amount of distortion and reverb will tend to mask the other tracks, especially if we keep layering tracks.

No, I think that the volume is good as it is. It's just more of an auditory illusion. It's just something that I'll keep in mind so that I don't muddle it up. I was thinking of running the mando through some effects, but if I do, it will be more of a subtle thing. Maybe small amounts of flanger or something.

I'm not opposed to re-doing my part as a "clean" track. I won't have to time until tomorrow, though.

Heh, and I called Blight "Plight"...my bad.

It was a good mistake.

Something that might be interesting is not to redo it, but accompany it to bring it out more. Maybe not totally clean, like, maybe have a mild overdrive with the gain turned up a little.

Also bear in mind that I haven't slept since yesterday (barring that 10 seconds earlier today), so I may or may not be making a whole lot of sense right now anyway.

I could use my first take, turn it way down, then accompany it clean; that way, it would be more like an afterthought.... thoughts?

Do what you feel is right.
