The boy has got some skills, that’s for sure.

Man, thanks everyone! I'm at the deep-into-the-weeds part of this project where I'm just getting worried nothing about this is good enough and why am I even bothering in a world where "newcomers" like Nick Johnson, Andy Wood, and Angel Vivaldi exist, and while I'm still binging my favorite Joe Satriani and Andy Timmons albums, and... I guess, thanks for liking this stuff. I need to get the momentum back going, and finish the last 2/3 of the lead guitar parts, then reamp everything and start mixing!
Also, as a 44-year-old who's starting to feel his age, thanks.

How much gain do you use? Gain definitely helps, and I guess (I'm writing this without a guitar in hand) I feel like I angle the pick a little more when I'm trying to draw out some of those overtones. Not sure when I next think I'll get a few minutes with a guitar but I'll try to remember to spend some time on this and see if anything comes out...
Drum programming by hand will drive you mad... but Superior 3 is VERY natural sounding, and if you put the work in you can get phenomenal results.

I checked that out. At 300$ is was a little rich for my blood. I have a Simmons eDrum set that I can use as triggers. I have Steven Slate 5.5 which is a useless as boobs on a bull. Good sounds but the interface needs a lot to be desired.
I have an idea that might work. Really all I need right now is a good looping 4/4. My guitar player has a looper, maybe that might work. o worries.
I was just really impressed with you post.

I'll catch up soon enough!
Toontrack does decent sales now and then, it might be worth checking out if you happen to catch it on a good sale... and if not, EzDrummer is less flexible, but the same basic audio engine and a LOT easier to use. It'll save you a lot of time step-editing drum "performances," too, though, as it's really designed to be use with (and includes the basics of) the front end for a pretty extensive MIDI library with some good groove-based search tools to help you find loops that work with a basic groove you have in mind.
