Hi all, Gathering by the short shrift the last piece of Indie pop received that was aired here, I guess many of you won't like this, but thought I would share it anyway ;) (mainly because it's the first cross-OS piece I have been involved in, despite thinking this would be a really good way of working for several years now). It's a demo for the band I play in at the moment ("River Fury"), and still in the process of polishing/improving. The song was written by the lead singer/songwriter, and he recorded the vocals and guitars in Garageband on his Mac. I recorded the drums and bass (and mixing) in qtractor under Linux. Drums were played live and recorded thru midi driving linuxsampler. Bass was played direct in via a zoom B2.1U. Apologies for the mistakes in playing, but as I said, it does need more work. I personally feel the vocals are a little too clean at the moment for the style of music - but that is Dan's call - not much I can do about that, and the drums are a bit on the boring side (which I can do a bit about - up to the rather low limits of my ability). Would appreciate feedback in its current state and thoughts on improvements to the composition and mix. My experience has been pretty positive from the Linux side this time. Qtractor behaved nicely, but I was getting some xruns for some reason.. Just changed video drivers to Nouveau, and various other changes to the system.. Maybe expecting too much in terms of latency from a really quite ageing system now (and an almost broken 10 year old SBLive!). Only thing I had to do was convert the m4a files to mp3 before importing to qtractor. qtractor impressively handled the different samplerates (44.1 vs 48k on my system) without complaint! Anyway, enough waffling. The link is here: http://www.box.com/s/rrcvn668gqfq0t1mqc12 Let me know if there are any problems accessing this. Thanks, James
