Armistice
Son of Yoda
Not at all dobro. I think it's a cool idea - but I'm not going to rework this song to do it. I have a not dissimilar vocal chant type thing on the next song I'm working on (and after that I'm really going to step away from the massed vocal thing I think ) and I'm putting it into play on that. I've already done most of it - just a matter of working out the degree and having a measure of subtlety about it so it doesn't seem like a "trick"... The song itself is (even) more intense and a different style completely, but I think it's working OK. I'm not using panning as such, just volume envelopes - the word ("listen") that's being repeated is always in both ears, I'm just putting more of it, alternating, in L and R so it sounds panned. It's also only about 50% panned anyway, again, so it doesn't freak people out wearing headphones, but is noticeable.You're being very polite, and I appreciate it. But just try it. Easy enough to dispatch it if you don't like it. But I'm thinking it might be like this: Have you ever had a thought that's come back on you again and again? Of course you have. But has that repeating thought ever been kind of disturbing, like you you don't quite know what to do about it? The left/right thing might sound like that.
Hopefully up in another 24 hours or so. Keep and eye out...
We'll call it the Dobro Manoeuvre - that way I can blame you if it doesn't work out.
