Honestly? No. Not because its not a good song. But being a drummer, I find that a good or bad drum sound is enough to make me buy something or not.
Is there any Drum Machines that you have encountered that you would consider rendered good drums? I realize that there's no synth machine or what have you that would replace a guitar in my opinion. Although, I have heard a song or two where the guitar was totally done using soundfonts on the computer and I couldn't tell the difference.
Anyway, here's my setup.
Guitars - Fender Squire using a Crate AMP. Which really only serves to bring the noise to line-in-level so the computer could record it. The clean rhythm and the Dist are both passed thru JCM simulators (
www.simulanalog.com - free) using Ableton Live (acting as a VST host). Guitar is plugged in straight into the line-in on my factory soundcard that came with the HP Media Center.
Drums are done using leafDrums. Sounds are from ns_kit also used to be avialable free. Now commercial version is very detailed and the free version is available in a low bitrate quality.
Bass is done using FLStudio with one of the synths that sounded like a bass.
Mixing was done using Acid Pro 4.
So from all of this to get a "big" sound or a nice sound is a little hard. I have been trying to get to a point where I can maximize the output of this gear before I have to shell out for any "real" gear. I only have one
Boss DS1 pedal but the dist. is exactly the same as my Crate dist. sound. So it's wrapped up sitting somewhere in a cabinet.
BTW, I uploaded another version with a little high end EQ'd on the hihats and the cymbals. Messed with the snare a little bit more. If you guys gave it another listen and gave me your input, it would only help me more.
Thanks for all your help so far, guys. I hope I'll get to Mix better with time.
