OK guys this is the first time i have ever shared my music with anyone so here go's.

First off i have only done some basic leveling and these are not mixed as of yet. take a listen to all 3. If your into metal thats great but i am a death metal guy but recently have gone into i differant direction, I have eased back my distortion alot and slowed everything down to a kind of Alt metal.

these arent very good but its what i have been up to. Also the solos in them atent that good but i tried to tie it all together.

Re: 3 Original songs i just posted

just listened to new **** again, its really cool and i like the tone your getting

the backing is good on all three of them what did you use for the drums?

i liked slow death the most, its got some huge chords in it and its kinda hypnotic to listen to

nice work man! :D
 
Re: 3 Original songs i just posted

Nuntius thanks man,

The drums i had a friend come in and do hits [pop the snare, tom, bass, hi hat, symbol etc] and record them in protools saving each one as a seperate file. Then i use an open file pallet and draw out a drum line [kick1 and hihat2 snare3 etc] kind of like a drum machine but i insert the real drums instead of using the actual drum machine. Although i do use a drum machine to ruogh out the track then insert the real drums, just a matter of cut and reinsert the proper drum and follow the pattern.

I tried alot of stop start patterns and overlapping patterns as well. I never actually done anything like that before but i was reading about nuno bettencourt and how he would do those things and make his guitar huge without sacraficing tone. its still a work in progress but i have about 2 more songs i am in the middle of recording.

at anyrate thanks for the compliment i am pretty shy when it comes to my playing as im not really all that good but i love playing more than anything and i figured what the hell everyone else is sharing why not.

Thanks man. I love my XXX it was love the first time i pluged it in and hit my first note. as far as FX i use a 7 band EQ. chorus [just a bit though to add depth] and a compressor.

basic setup and thanks again for the compliment. I need to sit down more often and try to tighten up my chops and what not.
