Well Hello All ..... I'm fairly new here, since Jan 2011
:glasses9:
Thought I'd share a (home / studio) recording or two here (after finally working out how 'soundcloud' works) :doh:
by just little'ol me :toothy10: …. This one, recorded 1 year ago. OH YEAH ... I go by the name .... Zummooz
This was the 1st experiment using a Roland VG-99
Song Title..........Midnight Call (Recorded at Midnight) own original / Time 5.01
Not sure what musical style............probably 'Soundscape' or 'Mystic' or 'Ambient' or just plain old 'Weird'
This was my 1st recording.....
Using my Gibson DarkFire (which I've since sold) via RIP into VG-99 set as 'Guitar-to-Midi' driving my Virus TI Synth
Recording via iMac 10.5.8 2.4Ghz 4Gb.............Into Logic Pro 9
Tracks 1 + 2...........DF playing VG patch #269 'Paragliding'.
Inside Logic added Chorus to one & Flanger to other + Eq
Tracks 3 --- 8...........DF driving Virus TI Synth 5 x Pads & 1 x Bass.
Set as mono mode in VG so each string plays separate sounds.
Efx & Panning of these done in Virus Synth before recording.......1 right then 1 left......etc etc etc
Tracks 9 + 10...........NI Maschine 2 x Drums + Eq
Track 11................NI Maschine Stereo Shaker + Eq
NO......D-Beam or Ribbon Controller on VG-99 used or the FC-300 foot controller.
NO vocals, as i'm crap :sad: at singing
This was one of those 1 take 1 pass sessions, just jamming arty07: mucking around :guitarplayer2: Just 3 weeks after owning the VG-99
Playing to basic drum beat, Then added Maschine drums in later on to fit the tune.
I've cut the drums out here & there, so as you can hear 'Guitar-to-Midi' doing it's stuff clearer.
After I recorded, went into logic's 'piano roll editor' & was amazed how well the midi tracking was.
Didn't have to do any edits in there.
Only editing done here is some Vol Automation & added Reverb + Compression to Master Outputs.
Could have added lots of other bits & pieces (maybe still will)
BUT......left as is to get clearer picture using 'Guitar-to-Midi'
This was ONLY a experimental task to see how the Gibson DarkFire / VG & the Virus TI Synth would work as one.
Thanks for listening. :icon_thumright: Oh Yeah .... Best played LOUD !!
I'll post a better song a bit later on ….
