Proggy 3,818 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) As some of yall may know, I've played guitar for nearly 20 years now. I used to be more involved with music, but rarely inspired to press record these days. I kinda just noodle guitar when I can. I've always found writing songs with a group to be more fun than writing solo. The collaborative effort of multiple people going into a song and performing that song together is usually a whole other feeling in itself. I also just hate writing and programming drums. Anyways I wanted to get back into recording music and figured I'd start with something catchy and simple. I usually tend to overcomplicate music which makes the whole process take a long time and the 'perfectionist' in me will spend weeks trying to write the perfect lead for a verse, or try to shape the mix to be better but end up getting nowhere. anyways here's where im at with it right now. Might make changes to it later, like adding a solo or proper melodic intro to the song. who knows. anyone wanna add something on it or collab on a piece of music? I can send stems or whatever.

DarkRP Administration Team hooboododoMartian 334 Posted May 9, 2023 DarkRP Administration Team Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) I love seeing people get into making music or get back into making music. The track slaps, the guitar harmonies are great and catchy, the programmed drums sound realistic, and the bass isn't too muddy. What DAW are you using?

Proggy 3,818 Posted May 9, 2023 Topic Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 this is fl studio the bass is a free plugin Ample Bass P Lite II the drums are Mjolnir Drums by Solemn Tones. Im not a fan of it. maybe i can recommend it to beginners if its on a steep sale? I'd rather use superior drummer 2/3 or GetGoodDrums. the guitars is a cali rectifier model on my PODgo, into a scarlett 18i20 with some post processing. default cab impulse from the pod. I didnt record raw DI so im kinda stuck with the tones there. unless I wanna rerecord. I could sit and improve the mix endlessly if I wanted but I'd rather just call it a demo and move on to the next idea for now 1 Quote Link to comment

The best thing to do is get a soundpack online and just make your own kit using that drum machine 1 Quote Link to comment
