You know what? If you're still up to it, I don't have the massive strings parts completed yet but I do have some of the piano and acoustic guitar tracks that I can put up with the project file if you wouldn't mind helping me out there. Those are done. If I did my math right that's a total of...
We didn't get everything done, so it'll still be awhile before I convert everything. Regardless, we double tracked the strings, which was 7 tracks a take for a total of 14. Jesus mighty.....
Definitely. That music is written an octave higher than it sounds for male tenor parts. On piano that would be an A4 as written normally, but if you sang the part (and listened to the part) its definitely an A3.
I very rarely ride my crashes, in my old band in the 20 songs we had I only did it for about 8 bars at the end of 1 song. Never really did it in any of my other bands.

How the tom sounds when you are right next to it is a lot different than how it will sound in the room, or even miked.

If Logic wasn't Mac only I would have considered going that route over Reaper just for that...
Yeah if you mix using your laptop speakers, they will only sound good through that one pair of laptop speakers. There will sound awful on any earphone (including cheap earbuds), other computer speakers, and of course anything of half-decent quality (you'd be surprised how many people have...
Yeah I found out about the ilok2 thing after posting that. Awesome that their demo is uncrippled, but that sucks. I avoid things that require ilok out of principle.
I considered that option but didn't want to ask. Thanks for the offer! We'll see what it ends up being after I record the...
+1 of VirtualDub. When I shoot drum vids, I always mute the onboard mic and throw on the actual studio recording. I do stick clicks before playing to make things sync up.
So in my current project I am recording both at my home studio and a professional studio as well.
The problem is that I use Reaper, and the pro studio uses Pro Tools.
This isn't a problem on my end. Its easy for me to export the tracks, put them on an external drive, go over there, and import...
