hi everybody,

sorry, i've been out for few days... now i've got internet on my office computer, and soon i'll have it at home as well.

thanks leddy freaky for the tracks you sent via email, so as i understood, we're all gonna play on Sultana Smoothie ?

I'll try to do the parts by today or tomorrow, so everyone (hopefully) can choose a spot.

Wow, a virtual jam sounds very interesting... Can a noob like me join??

Sure you can.....
And welcome back to the mix Pix....

Will have to see how many people can start first...

im in after 25 feb.
flying back to kuching this weekend and only bringing my acoustic so it means no electric guitar for me (unless i record an acoustic solo. lol)

We'll wait then. I haven't gotten my UX yet.

ok, here is the cut !!

(The time indicates when the part starts. It ends when the next part starts... don't bleed on each other, please, you six-strings vampires !!)

Verse 1 - 0:00
Verse 2 - 0:36
Verse 3 - 0:55
Verse 4 - 1:11
Verse 5 (trumpets) - 1:28
Verse 6 - 1:44
Verse 7 - 1:59
Verse 8 - 2:17
Verse 9 - 2:32
Verse 10 (trumpets) - 2:49
Verse 11 (trumpets) - 3:05
Verse 12 (empty) - 3:22

Verse 14 - 3:56
Verse 15 (trumpets) - 4:12
Verse 16 (trumpets) - 4:29
Verse 17 (trumpets) - 4:45

I divided into a lot of little pieces, but i doubt there are 17 people that wanna join !! So feel free to use 2 or 3 slots if you do feel inspired. Shy ones can just use one verse.

The piece is a repetition of the same pattern over and over, with an extended variation when trumpets kick in.

For the "trumpets" verses, I don't recommend soloing wildly over them, but rather try to "voice" them or play "Q&A", or something like this. Because they play a melody, it would sound too "busy" with a solo on top of them. Try to integrate them in your solo, in those ways or your own way (just my two euros, but do as you feel !!)

Have fun !!

Thanks Led Zep ! Hope to hear EBP on this one, and all the newcomers I didn't have a chance to salute.

I'ill take Verse 12 & 13... okay? Since V12 is only 17 seconds long.

i might attempt a keyboard solo. never tried doing that before, but i'll see how.
to make things worse my keyboard skills is horrible

is that alright if i give verse 3 a try?

"a try" ? you'd better give it all you've got, or else, it's so not worth it !!

i forgot how we will record the tracks...
1) send one mp3 with the backing track + solo track
2) send the .wav with only your solo track

Up to someone to do the final mixdown, cutting all the solos on top of the backing track, in order to keep an acceptable audio quality..

Is that correct ?

Blacktrix, not as good as me??? You caught the echobrainproject humble disease too?
Btw, anybody has a USB modeller (Toneport, JamLab, Tonelab etc) to lend??? Previously I've recorded with the Magicstomp into the soundcard and I had to go through loads of post-editing. A Toneport would definitely save my life.

this will turn out nicely I believe...btw echobrain, I got a WD-7 ...I'll probably use it to record in this jam...you got any interesting presets for the padel ?

Led_zep, the Tonelab SE does NOT have USB recording..... If it has..... I'd be cutting tracks like mad......

alright,then I'll take verse 3 then....

guess i need to go out buy a usb cable...or else i'll just use mic to amp..

you all so canggih one. mine just normal cable output from my effects straight to my laptop's line in(with a cheap headphone 1/4" to 1/8" converter)!

im afraid i would delay and end up not doing this jam...

plus i am leaving back to kuching this weekend

so after 2 days of not sleeping studying for 3 test papers in 2 days......


i come home after dinner, pick up my guitar....


and.......


DID MY JAM PART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

finally i manage to join in a jam.

however i like to apologize as i was over excited and took verse 6 all the way to verse 8.
