FORUM JAM - Surf is up!

[Vasshu the humanoid typhoon]

That is the fun part, challenge challenge challenge, you can never stretch your ears too much, I do it as much as I can since my ears and less than functional wrist sometimes makes me wonder if I should hang the bugging thing up.
I'll record something next week with clean tones over this one...twang twang yeah!!

[Norman_T]

Yea ^^^^^^

That is a very cool backing track but I don't understand the procedure.
1) Convert to WAV
2) Pull it into Cakewalk
3) Play lead part
4) Save and send back updated MP3 to you?

Great job! Honestly, I have absolutely no idea how'd I approach this.... never solo'd over anything remotely similar to this.

Me too!!

How do you convert the mpg3 file to a wav file?
Then when you have done your bit how do you reverse the wav file to mpg3?

Anybody??

[Skullkrusher]

I use MusicMacth Jukebox to convert files. Try that out.

Thanks for this just converted the file and it's like 7 times larger!! I suppose you just do a section?? I'll have to read the frigging manual of my recorder and try and sort something out.

The track is great and I have just played my acoustic guitar but will attempt something else later on

[Vasshu the humanoid typhoon]

What's wrong with the wrist, Rid?

It hurts badly sometimes because I used to repair and setup guitars in a store, it was very hard on it, and I also landed on it one time too many when I was dirtbiking in my younger days.
All in all it has gone weak on me, when it gets really bad a lump appears on top of the wrist, almost make movement impossible without serious hurt, but I refuse to give up playing.
Sorry for OT reply, I'm going to set up a nice clean sound, hmm gotta hook up our springreverb in our studio
Wish I had a Tele right now

Yeah.......just cut and use a small portion of the song.

[flank]

im done, where do i send it to?....i wish my frickin soundclick would work, i want to let you guys listen but errors keep happening.....ahhh...

[Stevo]

Hopefully someone like Curly who remembers the scene will like it - then I'll be well happy.

Hey now I was a little young but I am a D Dale fan and I really like the Ventures.. I love their version of Apache, simple but beautiful My band covers "Walk Don't Run"

[flank]

hey stevo, could you put my clip up on your soundclick site as a preview for everybody? every time i try to upload, it gives me an error

[Stevo]

hey stevo, could you put my clip up on your soundclick site

nope hehe Wattage made the rules.. sorry bro I will post other stuff if you want.. let's make it a suprise bash as Wattage intended.

[Wattage]

OK sorry if I was a little to vague about how I want the track.

I want it in MP3 format preferably 192k or higher. Musicmatch works great for converting wav>mp3 and mp3>wav.

What'll probably work best is if you send me a low res mp3 maybe 64kps with the whole thing you've done over the backing track and then send me just your part with no backing at the higher res and I can drop it on to the backing track and mix it so that it is some what uniform.

*****You can send the whole part you've done with backing track at the better res, that seems to be working out best so far. It is easier to bland parts together than sync them it seems.*****

Send your MP3 track to

bonscott@portjeff.net

And make sure you include your SD Nickname just incase I am not sure who you are by your email.

****I added a WAV download to the initial post

[Stevo]

4) Save and send back updated MP3 to you?

When I have done these in the past, it was a little confusing for me to queue some of the solos in the right place. I suggest sending 2 mp3s, one with the solo and backing, one with just the solo.

The solo with the backing track will help Wattage to know your exact beginning point Then he can insert the solo alone, in to the song.

[flank]

well i recorded mine just as if it was by itself, so i dont kno how you would be able to fit it into the jam anyways...... i used the entire 1:40 that i solo'd over......ahhh.... so if you cant fit it into the jam thats ok, i wont feel too bad about it.....its just that i feel good about the take i made so id like to let everybody hear it in some way or another, whether its seprately after the whole jam is put out or whether its fitted into the jam somehow

That's fine send what you have and I will ask you if I have any ?'s

[flank]

i sent it wattage.....thanks for putting this together man.....hopefully it will work out somehow

[Skullkrusher]

Ok, my tracks are IN THE MAIL!!!! Hope they sound ok.

[brinton]

Count me in, and it's true you can't listen to too many kinds of music. If you think surf music is weird enough that it's hard to solo to, you'll die when you play cross-key jazz. BTW I'll need some kind of confirmation that you got my file mkay wattage?

[brinton]

Man I've listened to this ten times already and the more I hear it the more I love it great riffs, possible tab please, if not I try and just figure out the riffs my self.

[Wattage]

I am gone until late tonight I'll try and tab it out in the AM. Didn't receive anything if you sent it out already.

[Gunner]

Thanks so much for doing this Wattage!

If I'm not too late, and there's still room for it, I've just e mailed you a one take thing I bashed out. If it's too long or there are no spots to fill anymore then no probs, I'll jump on the next one in time
