I created this punkish rock track for a friend to use as a backing track. It has a bit of Nirvana influence in there (think Terrirorial Pissings) and uses a few cool plugins, Neural DSP Archetype Plini for the main guitar parts and the Neural DSP SLO 100 for the additional guitar tracks and Get Good Drums One Kit Wonder Metal for the drum kit.

I used my Suhr S4 for the main guitars and an Ibanez RG550 for the additional parts. I also used a 5 string Ibanez Bass.

Punkish Track

I recorded my daughter being silly with my iPhone and thought I'd turn it into a track for a laugh. This is the first draught.

Boomba shake it boomba!

Last week I was playing around with a sample of my daughter singing and made a silly little trancey track out of it, I decided to remove the voice and embellish a little. I have added a Razor instrument that sounds pretty close to a 303, I added the saturation module and did some on the fly tweaking of the Q and Cutoff.

Trancey track

This demo is tracked left and right with different settings on the Eminence Reignmaker FDM speakers which let you control the level of attenuation up -9db per speaker:

left channel full attenuation
right channel no attenuation

All 3 guitars are recorded with a single Audix i5 Mic in front of the soundhole, left and right channels are the rhythm tracks with some added reverb and a low shelf eq to remove the boomy frequencies and the lead track also has some reverb and a little compression added.

Michael Jackson - Beat It Solo

I know Eddie didn't use the Peavey 5150 amp that this was based on until much later but I couldn't resist trying to get a a classic Eddie tone from it so this is the intro to 'Summer Nights' from the album 5150 (released in 1986).
