This project was recorded on Pro Tools SE.

There are 3 guitar tracks used, all recorded straight through an audio interface then using a guitar amp in Pro Tools.
The first is the main rhythm guitar that is present throughout the piece. this guitar provides the main basic rhythmic melody throughout with the exception of the bridge. The amp was set up to provide a clean sound with a very slight crunch to it. I also used some Spring reverb on the track.

The second guitar which is panned to the left has the same inserts as the first guitar, but it also has a Lo-Fi insert on provided, the Lo-Fi insert was then set up to with a low sample rate and bit depth, which is why it sounds like something from a gameboy. This guitar track also mainly copies the main guitar mostly, the reason I chose to do this was just to add something different to the piece.

The third guitar Is again, set up like the main guitar, except the amp is more devoted to keeping the treble higher and the bass lower. This track, unlike first and second guitar tracks, is panned completely to the right, however this track has a tape delay on it which is why this track can also be heard in the center of the piece too. It mostly has it's own little melody going, but it's still following the basic structure of the main guitar, just on the B and e strings.

Once I had finished with the guitar tracks, I then bounced down everything I had done and imported it into Avid Ignite where I then played in a really simple bass guitar track

This project was made half on Avid Ignite and half on Apple Logic Pro 9

The drums in this project were originally written in Avid Ignite but then I took the .mid file and imported it into Logic Pro 9 and used a really deep electronic kick drum and a separate snare and woodblock sound. once I had the drum sound I wanted, I then bounced the drums into one audio file and used some room reverb and a tape delay.

The vibraphone was messed with in the parameters, that Avid Ignite allowed, to have a long sustain, a much less harsh attack and the tone of the actual vibraphone to make it sound more synth like. I used two different Vibraphone tracks, one for left pan and one for right.

There's three other synths in the project, a deep analog bass, a motion pad from Avid Ignite, and a poly synth.
The deep analog bass synth fills the lower end of the track nicely making sure the song doesn't feel as empty.
The poly synth keeps the track moving forwards and adds a presence to the track by playing notes from multible different octaves.
The motion pad plays drones throughout most of the song to hold the low-mid range, again adding presence and making the song feel less empty.
