So this is a song in the works from The Good Kept Quiet that Ive just used to demo recording with my new Fractal Audio Axe FX II and Toontrack's Superior Drummer 2.0. 

Please keep in mind these are not the actual drum parts written to the song, just my crappy midi keyboard drumming :) Guitars will also be re-tracked in a few weeks when my Mayones Regius 8 arrives. Unfortunately our vocalist has just gone away for a few months, so it might be a while until anyone hears it with the vocals :( and yes the solo take was rather crappy...

She's A Thief (Instrumental Demo) - The Good Kept Quiet

Just a quick 4 chord progression with some sugar on the top to test out my new Mayones Regius 8 string. Haven't bothered EQing the tracks at all, so its very raw.

Mayones Regius 8 Test

Made a song out of my original Mayones Regius test, this ones got a lot better mixing and mastering, due to Slate FG-X which is a bloody great plug in, on that note my mastering is still pretty average at this stage. Also my bass tone is horrendous, waiting to borrow a friends bass pre amp that will actually sound good, but at the moment at least its filling out the mix. Also note the fantastic keyboard drumming fills.

If you really want to hear that 8th string, skip to 2:18.

(Axe FX II, S.D 2.0, Pro Tools 10)
