Come on now, I played my lead all the way through, one time, and then just cut some stuff out so there were rhythm gaps. :) My buddy Mike was over as I recorded and after the lead I said "O.K., that's good enough. Let's get another beer" and Mike's response was something like "oh, really? O.K."

There is no excuse, you placed your wife ahead in priority to recording, and that's... well, nevermind. Get this done so that you may move on to the jam thingie you're doing. :D

Oh man - I totally forgot about that jam. I gotta do something with that...

By the way... good takes guys. I actually like these drum only jams better than the backing jams because it's like writing a mini-tune. The backing jams are cool too though because they can be completed in about 15 minutes. :D

LOL, well, you're pretty close. I'd say from the time I launched Samplitude to the time I had an exported mix, I spent about 90 minutes, including beer breaks.
 
my take only took about 30-45 minutes...well, the rhythms did (3 rhythm tracks). the lead took longer because i did about 20 different takes before i decided i could live with it. then mixing...all in all about 90 minutes then...i wish i had my bass here though, woulda sounded a lot better.

Sounds about exactly what I did, except I only did 2 rhythm tracks and I didn't do any mixing.

i normally only do 2...when you play faster stuff with more gain less is more IMO. although i could have copied/pasted the tracks, and added a little delay to thicken it up rather than doing three rhythms...there were certain parts where i played complementary stuff on each guitar, so tracking 3 times was better IMO.

and i like mixing...annoying, but i learn a lot when i do it. the lead track sounded thin (same tone as rhythm with just a touch more gain) so i copied/pasted, panned them, added reverb and then slight delay to one side.

maybe i have to steal my gf's bass...she never uses it. :lol: :LOL: its almost painful to listen to my stuff without bass on it.
 
I like everybodys takes so far. A freind stopped by the other nite, I showed him this he thougth it was very cool and a interesting idea to have everyone take there own take on it. I can not tell the differance bettween digi/ss/tubes a lot of times by the time it gets to me. So they must be getting better. I would not have thougth it was a spider on Bobs take. This and ED's take has me interested. I use my Mark IV combo as my run out the door amp. It has been a head and a rack mount and this is why I have it in a combo agian. It's a little heavy maybe this well take that place. I well wait for the honeymoon to be over and check it out for myself. Agian nice work above.
 
I'm gonna try to record over that track a little later today, don't expect any cool solo-ing, I'm not that kind of guitarist :doh: Just expect cool metal rhythms
