aMUSEd - To answer you AD ?, on “She” I believe I used a combination of midi patterns that come with AD, and then edited as needed. There were probably some sections I had to enter manually in the drum editor. As far as the kit used, its the Sonar kit but I replaced the kick with the Ludwig vintage.
The trillian midi bass track was just manually entered notes in the midi editor. I had an idea how I wanted the bass line to go and then wrote it by placing notes in the midi editor. The plan was to go back and record the bass line with a bass guitar. But, the midi bass sounded ok to me so I just left it as is.
I like the uprights in trillian. I do my own backing tracks for live use and have used the uprights on a few songs that I think sound really good!!
kzarider - The song has not been mastered. I really need to go back through and try to work on the mix (with all the great suggestions here) but have been extremely busy gigging this summer.
Thanks guys - I appreciate the input!!!
