I have not. I have a 5 song acoustic demo that Iā€™m supposed to be working on before my MBA classes resume and I havenā€™t even touched the first song yet. End of year stuff at work has me drained by the time I get home. I need a caffeine infusion.

I was hoping to jump on it this last weekend, but all I managed to do was download the tracks :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Downloaded on the 27th. spent minimal time with it. The biggest thing that I am trying to commit to is the vox, in the tuned version there are small screwing warbles that bug the shit out of me, but I am too lazy to tune the original track. I tried tuning the tuned vesrion, I cannot find a happy medium.

Everything is in a good soft focus and sounds good, now I have to mangle the shit out of it! I have parts I know I am already ditching, parts or vision I want to create, I just need to implement it so a grown-ass man can undress to it.

Wait, what?

Hahahaha! I totally misread what he said earlier. That cracks me up!

sorry if someone already mentioned this i not read all postsā€¦

i am getting a drastic difference in tempo between the reference track provided (coldroom mix) and the tracks themselves?
has the final mix been speeded up slightly or has something gone wrong during my import?
thanks

not that it matters as the sheer amount of guitar tracks put me off and i`ll peob give it a miss

@ColdRoomStudio, Any idea what might be happening there?

Hey Iain - Great to see you here! The session files were recorded @ 48k, so if your DAW is set to 44.1 and doesnā€™t convert it automatically when you import it, it will play at the wrong speed - thatā€™s why the sample rate is mentioned in the information where the download link is.

Many of the tracks are DI duplicates of the recorded amped guitar tracksā€¦ So while it looks like a lot of tracks, there isnā€™t as many separate recorded performances as ther first might appear to be.

oh my god i cannot believe i made that school boy error!!! lol
thanks.

What key is this song in? Anyone knows?
